About This Book
The author examines New Testament teaching about God’s kingdom, treating the expressions Kingdom of Heaven and Kingdom of God as equivalent. He surveys the proclamation of the kingdom, the Gospel message, and the parables that illustrate its growth and character; outlines who may become its subjects and the moral life expected of them, drawing on the Sermon on the Mount; addresses institutions and practices connected with the kingdom; and considers the person and role of its King. The work aims to clarify biblical language and relate the kingdom to the Church and the creed’s reference to the communion of saints.
