How can one person get into the Kingdom of God?
Kingdom of God
Alan Mushegan Jr. referenced Matthew 14:7 to emphasize that it is just within our reach. When Jesus said those words to the people, the first thought that He was referring to a physical kingdom. However, what the Lord meant in that passage is not a physical kingdom, but a spiritual Kingdom.
“Jesus, He says, ‘the Kingdom of God is at hand, it’s right within your grasp,’ He’s talking about a spiritual kingdom. Because according to Scripture, the Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. So, the Kingdom of God is a spiritual Kingdom.”
How can one get into it?
The only way into God’s Kingdom is by repenting. Alan then explained that repenting means changing the way we think and aligning our thoughts to God’s will.
“The word ‘repent’ means to change the way you think. It doesn’t matter how you arrive at that… Whatever gets you there, it’s about changing the way you think… Repent means that I have to change the way that I think because I can’t have God’s way my way.”
When you change the way you think, you can come into God’s ways and receive joy, peace, and righteousness. The Kingdom of God is here, people first witnessed it when Jesus came here on earth. And today, we are still witnessing it by seeing people come out of the darkness into the light by the power of the Holy Spirit.
“The Kingdom of God started coming the moment that Jesus arrived. And now it’s progressively coming as people of God are coming out of the darkness. They’re coming out of darkness and into the light and they’re carriers of His nature and carriers of His presence.”
