“The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.” —Matthew 13:31–32 When Jesus began his ministry, he announced that the kingdom of God was at hand. But many modern-day Christians don’t really understand what the kingdom of God is or how it relates to the message of the gospel. Defining kingdom as the King’s power over the King’s people in the King’s place, Patrick Schreiner investigates the key events, prophecies, and passages of Scripture that highlight the important theme of kingdom across the storyline of the Bible—helping readers see how the mission of Jesus and the coming of the kingdom fit together. Part of the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series.

This book is about your original purpose for existence and the source of meaning behind your life. In these pages you will discover the Creator’s divine motivation, design, and mandate for His creation and your role in that creation. After reading this book, you will be equipped with the knowledge to answer some of the questions addressing the heart cries of humanity in our search for a better world. I am convinced also that you will come to believe, as I do, that there is hope for mankind, but only as we reconnect to the source of creation and our Creator’s original concepts for life on planet earth. It is this concern that this book will attempt to address. The goal of this book is to reintroduce the concepts, principles, and nature of true authentic kingdoms as presented by the Creator and show the superior and advantageous nature of kingdom as compared to any religion, political ideology, government system, or social program. Join me as we explore and understand the precepts and principles of “the Kingdom.”

Easton's Bible Dictionary is a classic book of definitions which serves to explain and clarify the meaning of the names, places, and words found in the Bible. Many Christians and scholars who read the Bible often remain unawares of the meanings or significance of the Holy Book's vocabulary. Such words are often derived from Ancient Hebrew or other old scripts, which makes it even more difficult for readers who only speak English to understand. Location names, in the context of ancient geography, are likewise hard to scrutinize - yet Easton's Dictionary not only explains what these places are, but their size and overall impact across the entire Bible. First published in 1893, this dictionary uses the authoritative King James Bible as its source. As well as containing definitions and accounts of the many terms found throughout the Old and New Testaments, Easton's Bible Dictionary points out the significance of certain things and exactly where mentions of such phenomena appear in the Bible. The presence and significance of iron, for example, is noted in the Books of Genesis, Chronicles, Ezekiel, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Job, Joshua, Kings and in the Psalms. Individuals in the Bible are also given biographical definitions. Through Easton's referencing of the names, we can discover the exact Bible passages where such figures are mentioned. Likewise we hear of terms relevant to the life of the ancient peoples; the term 'Levy' for instance is shown to equate to a form of involuntary recruitment which kings ordered. Words in frequent use today, such as 'Schism', are also shown to originate from the Bible. Other words we use today - such as 'Teeth', are shown to have been informal terms: 'cleanness of teeth' in Amos 4:6 denotes an outbreak of famine, for example. Many of the parables and tales of the Bible are retold in abbreviated form in Easton's Bible Dictionary. These retold anecdotes reference other relevant passages, further evidencing how the various portions of the Bible are interconnected and related to one another. Such a style also gives this unconventional dictionary a flowing quality, making it easier for the reader to enjoy large tracts of this text without pause. The ancient world of the Biblical canon is given life and color by Easton's descriptions. Primarily however, Easton's masterwork is designed for reference. Yet it not only defines the individual entries, but places these entries in their proper context throughout both the Old and New Testaments. Owing to this wealth of information, the reader may perceive that Easton's Dictionary is not merely a book of definitions, but an authoritative and significant work of classic Christian literature.

To properly interpret the Book of Revelation, we must have a thorough understanding of the New Covenant Spiritual Life. We must learn to emphasize the spiritual over the material. We must have a Heavenly orientation, as opposed to an Earthly orientation, to life, history, and our future.

In the last hundred and fifty years the kingdom of God has emerged as one of the most important topics in theology, New Testament studies, and the life of the church. But what exactly is the kingdom of God? What does it mean for the people of God and what does it mean for how they live in the world? In The Kingdom of God, part of the Biblical Theology for Life series, Nicholas Perrin explores this dominant biblical metaphor, one that is paradoxically the meta-center and the mystery in Jesus' proclamation. After survey interpretations by figures from Ritschl to N. T. Wright, Perrin examines the "what, who, and how" questions of the kingdom. In his sweepingly comprehensive study, Perrin contends that the kingdom is inaugurated in Jesus' earthly ministry, but its final development awaits later events in history. In between the times, however, the people of God are called to participate in the reign of God by living out the distinctly kingdom-ethic through hope, forgiveness, love, and prayer. X

Understanding the Kingdom of God provides the answers to clarify the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven. Furthermore, this book launches a challenge to the contemporary church regarding changes it must make to go from a weak Christianity to become an overcoming church that can transform society. With profound theology but in simple language, Torres illuminates the present and eschatological concepts of the Kingdom and the need for the church and you as an individual to understand the calling, the power, the glory, the integrity, the ethics, and the challenges before us to establish the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in Heaven. No other topic is mentioned so frequently in the gospels as the Kingdom of God. Indeed on the pages of this book we can understand that the theme that unifies the biblical revelation in its entirety is centered on the concept of the Kingdom of God. Understanding the Kingdom of God has been endorsed by: "While the Church of the XXI century continues to march to do the great commission of discipling nations, certain truths have come to be relevant in our day. The "Gospel of the Kingdom" is one of them. With great clarity, depth and good balance, Hector Torres invites us to go beyond our religious formulas and anemic Christianity, to the true heart of our mission: to see the Kingdom of God penetrate every nation and culture of the land. Understanding the Kingdom of God is a treasure!" --APOSTLE DUTCH SHEETS Author of: Tell Your Heart to Beat Again, Intercessory Prayer, and How to Pray for Your Lost Loved Ones "How important and necessary it is to have books like "Understanding the Kingdom of God"! Dr. Hector Torres breaks it down, in great detail, the mysteries, authority and power of the Kingdom to change nations. I believe that the leaders, who are at the forefront of God's movement in the 21st century, must know and read this book, as it is one of the most complete books about the Kingdom of God, available to the Christian community. I highly recommend it, as it will bless the lives of those who receive this treasure." --Dr. GUILLERMO MALDONADO Ministerio Internacional El Rey Jesus Miami Florida "Jesus told his disciples to pray that the Kingdom of God come to earth and that His will be done on earth as well as it is in heaven. Hector Torres does an excellent job presenting what the Kingdom of God means, so when you read this book, you will get a new perspective on the Kingdom. This book comes at a precise moment when the Holy Spirit is embarking believers to have a broad mindset and a vision of the Kingdom. Thank you, Hector, for making these truths of the Kingdom of God accessible to the Body of Christ." --DR. BILL HAMON Founder and President of Christian International Ministries Network "In a time of transition, the Lord raises voices that may be heard. That is what he has done with Hector Torres. In this book, Understanding the Kingdom of God, Torres navigates a route that will lead the Church out of the confusion into a clarity that awaits us in the new apostolic era. This is a book about reformation and transformation." --JIM (JAMES) W. GOLL Ministry to the Nations Author of: The Lost Art of Intercession and Exodus Cry

The Church today can be divided into two different understandings of the Kingdom of God. The first group views the Kingdom of God as mystical, invisible, and heavenly. These Christians assert that Jesus is Lord of all, but his Kingdom does not make a difference...
