The spiritual kingdom of God consists of:
1. A spiritual NATION consisting of believers in Jesus.
- 1 Peter 2:4-10
2. A spiritual CITY, the new Jerusalem, consisting of believers in Jesus.
- Revelation 21:1-4
- Galatians 4:26
- Hebrews 12:22-24
3. A spiritual TEMPLE consisting of believers in Jesus.
- Ephesians 2:11-22
The spiritual kingdom of God is the spiritual kingdom of Daniel 2…the kingdom built without human hands.
The spiritual kingdom of God impacts the world as the river of the water of life flows through believers to the nations.
The river of the water of life is the gospel of God's grace freely given to us by God in Jesus.
The gospel of God's grace is everything he has done through Jesus to:
- Forgive our sins
- Make us righteous
- Bring us into relationship with God
- Give us eternal life
Through faith in Jesus, those in the nations receive God's grace and become citizens of the spiritual kingdom of God.
