The Kingdom That Love Built #2 The Worlds Response to Kingdom Love and How We React

Jesus tells all of his hearers what it means to be in the kingdom of God It is a kingdom that love built in eternity past. God decreed that he would build himself a kingdom. Made up of the people that he would save for his own glory from their own wicked depravity, guilt and sin. It would be a kingdom that he would give to his Son to show the worthiness of the glory of God, the rightness of the exaltation of the Trinity. The praise worthiness of the one that every man should praise. This kingdom is built upon the precious promise of God the Father to God the Son that upon the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God would hang this kingdom and allow this kingdom to be seen as right and worthy in his sight. This is a kingdom that love built it is not the kingdom that Law has built. The law was not made for a righteous man but for sinners. You do not give righteous people law for they are not under the law, they are under love. They do by very nature the righteous acts of the law and are free from its commands and its condemnation. The kingdom that God has built is one governed by the precepts of loving the Lord thy God with all my heart and all my mind and all my strength and loving my neighbor as thyself. This is a hard sell to a people who are a wicked hearted lot and who want nothing but to dominate the kingdom and to force the kingdom and to win it by the power of their own hand. God has said that kingdom is a free gift but only to those to whom that kingdom is given. It cannot be forced they cannot be taken it must be freely given through the shed blood of Jesus Christ our Savior our Lord and the very master of the kingdom that he built.
