In him we live and move and have our being in him.


We have been led to believe there is something outside the kingdom, due to i believe by taking the scripture literally. For instance, entering the kingdom taking literally implies you are out of it. The entering Jesus was teaching was an entering the experience of what is already ours (the Kingdom) i, don't believe the fundamentalists who believe only they are of it and teach it like it's a place they are going to. They are in it but have no idea they are.

'Fear not, little flock, because your Father did delight to give you the reign;

It's always been ours, very difficult to accept when you believe in separation from God, you are basically in something and you are totally unaware of it, so how can you possibly live by it ?. The world you are in but not of is more real to you.
