When we are born again, we become citizens of Heaven.
Salvation is entering and beginning to live in the Kingdom of God while still living on Earth. That tension between our citizenship in Heaven and our stay here on Earth is what so much of the New Testament is written about.
Three truths will transform how we look at our calling here on Earth as believers. We all need to know these three truths to master the discipline of disciple-making. Here are those truths:
1–Jesus Taught that Salvation was Coming Under God’s Kingdom & Rule
2–The Apostles Taught that Salvation was Coming Under God’s Kingdom & Rule
3–Disciple-makers Understand that Salvation was Coming Under God’s Kingdom & Rule
This description of salvation unites the Four Gospels with the Book of Acts & the Epistles through the repeated message about the Kingdom of God.
In the pages of Acts, salvation was presented to people living in the Roman Empire (which happens to be everywhere the New Testament was written from and to) as entering a new kingdom, God’s, and becoming the subject of a new king: Jesus; and living under a whole new way of life, which could be called: Kingdom Living.
JESUS TAUGHT THAT SALVATION WAS COMING UNDER GOD’S KINGDOM & RULE
