OF GOD
.
.
Kingdom of God has come near!
Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the

gospel of God and saying, "The time is
fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at
hand; repent and believe in the gospel
( Mk 1: 14-15)
From the days of John the Baptist until

now, the kingdom of heaven has been
subjected to violence, and men of
violence take it by force.
Matthew 11:12
New International Version (NIV)

.
OF GOD
.
“The Law and the Prophets

were proclaimed until
John. Since that time, the
good news of the kingdom
of God is being preached,
and everyone enters it
violently.
Luke 16:16

.
OF GOD
.
Kingdom of God is in the midst of you.
Once, on being asked by the Pharisees

when the kingdom of God would come,
Jesus replied, “The coming of the
kingdom of God is not something that
can be observed, nor will people say,
‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the
kingdom of God is in your midst.”
Luke 17:20,21

.
OF GOD
Entering the Kingdom maimed!
.
If your hand causes you to stumble,

cut it off. It is better for you to enter
life maimed than with two hands to go
into hell, where the fire never goes
out. And if your foot causes you to
stumble, cut it off. It is better for you
to enter life crippled than to have two
feet and be thrown into hell. And if
your eye causes you to stumble, pluck
it out. It is better for you to enter the
kingdom of God with one eye than to
have two eyes and be thrown into hell,
where ‘the worms that eat them do
not die, and the fire is not quenched.’
Mark 9:43-48

.
OF GOD
. The Parable of the Growing
Seed
He also said, “This is what
the kingdom of God is like.
A man scatters seed on the
ground. Night and day,
whether he sleeps or gets
up, the seed sprouts and
grows, though he does not
know how. All by itself the
soil produces grain—first
the stalk, then the head,
then the full kernel in the
head. As soon as the grain
is ripe, he puts the sickle to
it, because the harvest has
come.”
Mark 4:26-29

.
OF GOD
. The Parable of the
Mustard Seed
Again he said, “What
shall we say the
kingdom of God is like,
or what parable shall
we use to describe it?
It is like a mustard
seed, which is the
smallest of all seeds on
earth. Yet when
planted, it grows and
becomes the largest of
all garden plants, with
such big branches that
the birds can perch in
its shade.”
Mark 4:30-32

.
OF GOD
.
The Parables of the Hidden
Treasure and the Pearl
“The kingdom of heaven is
like treasure hidden in a field.
When a man found it, he hid
it again, and then in his joy
went and sold all he had and
bought that field.
“Again, the kingdom of

heaven is like a merchant
looking for fine pearls. When
he found one of great value,
he went away and sold
everything he had and
bought it.
Matt 13:44-46

.
OF GOD
. Old & New Treasures!
“Have you understood

all these things?” Jesus
asked.
“Yes,” they replied.
He said to them,
“Therefore every
teacher of the law who
has become a disciple
in the kingdom of
heaven is like the
owner of a house who
brings out of his
storeroom new
treasures as well as
old.”
Matt 13:51-52

.
OF GOD
. Matthew 20
The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard
1 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the
morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius[a] for
the day and sent them into his vineyard. 3 “About nine in the morning he went
out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4 He told them,
‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So
they went.
“He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the
same thing. 6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others
standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long
doing nothing?’
7 “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered.
“He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’
8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the
workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going
on to the first.’

.
OF GOD
.
9 “The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each
received a denarius. 10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected
to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11 When they
received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who were
hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us
who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’
13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t
you agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one
who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the right to do what I
want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
Matt 20:1-15

.
OF GOD
.
Healing the Body & Soul
And they came, bringing to him a

paralytic carried by four men. And
when Jesus saw their faith he said
to the paralytic, "My son your sins
are forgiven" ( Mk 2: 3,5)
"But that you may know that the

Son of Man has authority on earth
to forgive sins... I say to you rise take
up your pallet and go home."( Mk 2:
10,11)
Poems by Mattie J.T. Stepanek, a 13-year child who died of the disease dysautonomic
mitochondrial myopathy.
.
OF GOD
. Kingdom of God is at Hand!
A woman of the city who

was a sinner brought an
alabaster flask of
ointment and...weeping,
she began to anoint his
feet with her tears...and
then with the ointment.
(Lk 7: 37-38)
“Therefore, I tell you, her

sins which are many are
forgiven"...and he said to
her "your sins are forgiven"
(Lk 7: 47)

.
OF GOD
.
Enjoy the Peace of

Jesus Christ!
Jesus came and stood
among them and said
to them "Peace be with
you " (Jn 20: 19-20)

When he had said this,
he showed them his
hands and his side.
Jesus said to them again
" Peace be with you."
(Jn 20: 20-21)


.
OF GOD
.
Come Holy Spirit!
"As the Father has sent me, even so

I send you " (Jn 20: 22)
And when he had said this, he

breathed on them and said to them
"Receive the Holy Spirit" (Jn 20: 22)
"If you forgive the sins of any, they

are forgiven, if you retain the sins of
any, they are retained." (Jn 20 :23)

.
OF GOD
.
“Go throughout the whole

world and preach the
gospel to all mankind.”
