The Kingdom of God: Challenge for Today's ChristiansRowman & Littlefield, 1987 - 236 páginas The Kingdom of God is not a place, a thing, or even a person. This book examines the multi-faceted reality and shows why we must go beyond the world of ME and IT to arrive at the heart of the Kingdom. It listens attentively to Jesus as he demonstrates that WE--the entire human family--are the ones on whom God has set his heart and for whom he has prepared a Kingdom. |
