Episode 12: Manifesto: Life, Politics, and Reality in the Kingdom of God
In this episode, part of our ongoing series covering the Sermon on the Mount, we look at Matthew 5:20, where Jesus defined the greatest obstacle and opposition to the Kingdom of God. It wasn’t earthly rulers and powers but religious systems and rulers who disguised themselves as the truth but led the people toward death and darkness. What we traditionally refer to as the “Sermon on the Mount” was actually a revolutionary manifesto for a new way of life in the Kingdom of God. In today’s unsettling and polarized age, the teachings of this Kingdom Manifesto are as relevant and vital as ever. In this multi-part series, JB Shreve and Faithful Considerations takes a deep dive into the Manifesto: Life, Politics, and Reality in the Kingdom of God.
