In our penultimate episode in this series, we look at Jesus’ description of how to enter the Kingdom of God. There is a right way and there is a wrong way. There are dark forces aligned to keep you from entering the Kingdom in the correct way. Jesus expects us to know the difference between true and false and this is the guidance He brings to us.
13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)
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.
