Episode 3 The Kingdom of God What Jesus Was Actually Teaching

Описание: Episode 3 — The Kingdom of God: What Jesus Was Actually Teaching

What did Jesus actually mean when He preached about the Kingdom of God?

For many Christians, the Kingdom has been reduced to heaven after death, moral behavior, or church participation. But when Jesus spoke about the Kingdom, He wasn’t pointing people to the future — He was confronting the present.

In this episode of the Applied Christianity 52-week discipleship journey, we slow down and examine what Jesus meant when He said, “The Kingdom of God is at hand.”

This episode explores:

Why the Kingdom of God is not merely heaven after death

Why authority and allegiance are central to Jesus’ message

How forgiveness without Kingdom allegiance leads to shallow faith

Why Jesus’ teaching still disrupts modern Christianity

This is not a sermon series or a debate.
It is a deliberate rebuilding of the Christian foundation — starting with the words of Jesus Himself.
