Reminder

Jesus set an example of what was expected of us according to His Gospel of the Kingdom. He did nothing of His own accord but only the will of the Father just as we would be expected to do when God establishes His governance over us, once again living among us (thy Kingdom come, thy will be done in earth as it is in Heaven).

Perhaps if the focus was put back on Jesus' only Gospel, the Gospel of the Kingdom, then people would stop thinking about 'what's in it for us' and making it a priority, while building a false religion fostering that particular selfish hope of self gratification, and instead return to the concept that it was all about the return of God to establish governance over mankind. Yes, we will benefit in the end if resurrected, but man will not let go of self serving ways easily (especially our own governments) and that includes the Church which re-aligned itself with the governments of man rather than God, centuries ago. Unfortunately God re-establishing His rule here will most likely be seen as a threat to the institutions of man, let alone those who think they can have it both ways as a Christian. We like to put ourselves first, unfortunately.

This is not far fetched, but the blind have had almost 2000 years to convince the up and coming blind otherwise. Man since the Garden, has always turned God's will back to one of human self interest as we build our own kingdoms of sand. Until now nothing has threatened that stance, not even Jesus' Gospel of the kingdom. We just made our own version. Interesting days ahead.
