KINGDOMBITE # 3

THE KINGDOM: ETERNAL 

    The word “eternal” not only means without end but with without beginning. It has always been and always will be.  The Kingdom of God is eternal.  Its history is measureless, transcendent.   Observe antiquity and you will not find its beginning. It has no such.  Look to the future and imagine as far ahead as you are able, yet you will not see its end.  It if has never not been and never will not be, it is now!  It is timeless, yet is timeful; it is beyond time, yet deeply involved in time.  It transcends time in every direction, yet is intimate with time and gives respect to time’s dimensions.
    Being eternal, the Kingdom of God is indestructible, unshakable, and wins by sheer permanence.  It disturbs tyrants, mocks pretenders to its authority and presides over the decay and destruction of mighty nations.
    Hey, it’s nice to be a part of something that will be around a trillion years and then some!  The Kingdom is eternal.
