the kingdom
Aug 30th, 2007 by Nathanael
Scot McKnight’s blog Jesus Creed is one of my favorite and most frequently visited. He is a man of God whose wisdom and love for others makes it a joy to regularly stop in and be edified and challenged.
He’s been doing a series entitled Missional Jesus. It’s been extremely informative and encouraging to look through the life of our Christ, and to see how He reacted and handled various situations.
Two days ago, he used Luke 17:20-21 as his text. He said a lot of good stuff in a short post (as usual) but the last sentence was the most impactful to me. He wrote, “The kingdom is recognized not by its flash but by its humility, it’s inauspicious potent presence.”
Wow! what a great commentary on how the kingdom of God should look as it’s lived out by me!
