Across 22 chapters, T. Desmond Alexander expounds the theme of the kingdom of God from selected Old and New Testament texts, showing its relevance for today. God made us to rule with him as his representatives, to establish his kingdom on earth. But Adam and Eve's rebellion alienated humanity from God's kingdom, instead making them slaves to the kingdom of darkness. As the promised ruler, Jesus Christ comes as the perfect king to redeem enslaved humanity. This servant king brings God's kingdom on earth through self-sacrificial love. In hope, we now await the return of the king and the coming of the eternal kingdom. The fully integrated study guide, suitable for both personal and group study, helps you to see how the Bible's unified teaching on this vital theme can impact your life today.

______________
‘Kings and kingdoms can seem to be merely the fodder of fairy tales for some, while for myriad others, especially those who have lived under cruel kings in corrupt kingdoms, kings and kingdoms are seen primarily as perpetrators of oppression and violence. This is why we need the story the Bible presents to us, and which Desi Alexander has so capably expounded on for us in The Message of the Kingdom of God. This book connects all of the biblical dots for us, so that we can see not only how God is answering our prayers for his kingdom of justice and righteousness to come, but also the beauty of the king who has come and will come again.’ Nancy Guthrie, Bible teacher and author of Even Better Than Eden: Nine Ways the Bible’s Story Changes Everything About Your Story
