Kingdom of God or Kingdom of Heaven?

1. What is a kingdom? What does it look like?




2. When you read or listen to the Bible, pay close attention to the details. John the Baptist preaches a certain message, and after his arrest, Jesus proclaims a similar message. Are they saying the same thing?

In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea and saying, “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near!" (Matt 3:1-2, CSB)

After John was arrested, Jesus went to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God: “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!" (Mark 1:14-15, CSB)




3. If you were a king, would you feel threatened by this message? Can you think of any Bible passage that would illustrate this?




4. Where is the kingdom of God?
