Notes from Sunday’s message

We used lots of verses…and made lots of points.  I thought you might find it helpful to have a list with both:

1. We’ve been living in the last days since the arrival of Jesus: Hebrews 12:1-2, I Peter 1:20
2. Jesus’ crucifixion was judgment day happening in advance of the final judgment day: John 12:31
3. Jesus’ death was an ‘end of the world’ event that brought the powers of the Kingdom of God: Matthew 27:45, 51-53 (the stuff about the veil being torn was based on Matthew 27:51, and Hebrews 9:9)
4. Jesus’ resurrection was an ‘end of the world’ event that brought the powers of the Kingdom of God (and so was your salvation): Ephesians 2:5, John 11:24-25, I Corinthians 10:11, Hebrews 6:5
5. Pentecost was an ‘end of the world’ event that brought the powers of the Kingdom of God. Joel 2:28-31, Acts 2:1-21
6. We are already / not-yet people: (all from 2 Corinthians) already texts: 5:17, 2:14 –not-yet texts: 5:2-4, 4:11–already and not-yet texts: 4:8-9, 6:4-10

Fire away if you have questions about this week, previous weeks, or anything regarding the Kingdom!

 

Kingdom Charts from Part 3 on Sunday, June 15

Pastor Aaron used two charts yesterday to help us visualize the “already/not yet” nature of the Kingdom of God. They will be a big help when you’re listening to the sermon. To download the charts, right-click and choose “Save Image As…”

 

What about Luke 17:20-21?

Hey Aaron,

One of my favorite passages on the kingdom is Luke 17:20-21. I’ve studied it a little but it still completely baffles me. Could you help a poor jock out?

The pitiful FCA guy

 

When the Kingdom…

The Kingdom of God is a true mystery…but not one that we are unable to learn about. In the next several weeks we (the folks at the Maryville Vineyard) will be studying the Kingdom of God together. This site is a place to dig a little bit deeper. We’ll keep all the sermons posted here, and if I have any additional resources I’ll store them here for you to check out. You can ask questions, share thoughts, or give a testimony about how the Kingdom of God has impacted your life.

If you have any questions…just post them below as a comment, and we’ll begin the discussion.
