Beschreibung
Keith Warrington explains basic biblical concepts concerning the kingdom of God and offers a perspective on how it is at work and taking shape among us in our time. He deals with the calling of the individual and the church community, as well as with the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which should never be seen only from the perspective of a “personal salvation”. Instead, all areas of life – family, work, science and culture, industry, technology etc. – should be guided and shaped by the values of the Kingdom of God.
The first part of the book leads chronologically through the Bible in order to discover inductively the topic of the kingdom of God and to unfold its scope. Basic terms are explained and a perspective is opened up as to how the kingdom of God is at work among us and taking shape in our time.
The second part deals with very practical, important consequences that arise from this kingdom of God perspective.
Some important changes are called for with guidelines for implementation. For this, the author gives practical tips – surprising, challenging, feasible suggestions and plenty of real-life examples.
For many, a paradigm shift.
