The Kingdom of God is a miraculous realm of existence that is in God himself. In order to enter into the realm of the miraculous, we must be able to believe, and to believe, we must find confidence or a right-standing with God. We find this confidence in Christ Jesus. It does not matter who you are. Neither does it matter what you have done, nor the current state of your being. You can find and enter into this miraculous realm of God. This is the good news (i.e. gospel) that Christ Jesus first proclaimed:"The time has come,≤ he said. ≥The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!"
(Mark 1:15) In other words: ≥The miraculous realm of God is accessible right now, and it is open to everyone. So believe this good news, and change the direction of your life!≤What wonderful news! We are invited to freely enter into a realm of existence far higher than we can imagine. We do not have to make ourselves better people in order to live there. It is not necessary to fill out an application or join any religious organization. Entrance into the Kingdom of God is free and is strictly ≥come as you are.≤ If anything within us needs to be changed or fixed, God will do it through miracles.
So is the miraculous existence that is in God. Everyone is invited to abide with him in the miraculous, but how? How do we, mere humans, approach and relate to such a wonderful being as God? Try to imagine infinite love, infinite light, infinite power, infinite goodness and absolute truth all embodied in one very awesome being. God is far too wonderful for us to comprehend. As human beings, we have trouble just understanding the term ≥infinite,≤ much less God. It is impossible for us to comprehend God with the understanding, so we must strive for something much better, the spiritual experience of God himself. To do this, we must first learn how to relate to him. We must find a way or a vehicle which transcends time, space and matter to take us there. It has to overcome the limits of this physical world, and it has to deliver us into the miraculous realm of God uncondemned. That agent is faith. It is only by faith that we can experience the tremendous changes in our being which take away our condemnation and allow us to believe. It is by that same faith that we grasp the miraculous class of love which translates us into the infinite depths of Godπs being.
