Kingdom Quotes
-
If you do not wish for His kingdom do not pray for it. But if you do you must do more than pray for it, you must work for it.
John Ruskin -
God does not use extraordinary striving. He uses extraordinary availability to reach the world with the message of his Kingdom.
Ed Stetzer
-
Not what I have, but what I do is my kingdom.
Thomas Carlyle -
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
Eugene O'Neill -
We must not define Jesus and his kingdom by fitting them within conventional understandings of kings and kingdoms. Rather, we must judge and deconstruct those conventional definitions in light of Jesus and his example.
Brian D. McLaren -
Heaven is not here, it's There. If we were given all we wanted here, our hearts would settle for this world rather than the next. God is forever luring us up and away from this one, wooing us to Himself and His still invisible Kingdom, where we will certainly find what we so keenly long for.
Elisabeth Elliot -
9/11 allowed us to witness the ordinary face of goodness in the love that those about to die brought with them to work that day. It is fitting that we refer to a large segment of the church year as Ordinary Time because it describes the look of the true faith that, as we read of the Kingdom, is spread about us.
