The kingdom of God is a controversial topic that I prefer not to discuss on this thread; or any other thread for that matter. However I don't mind suggesting that the kingdom isn't strictly limited to a particular venue.
For example: Christ's followers are in the kingdom regardless of where they happen to be stationed at any given moment; whether on Earth, down inside the Earth, up in Heaven, or flying around the world in the international space station.
● Col 1:12 . . He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son.
In other words; for now at least, the kingdom is best thought of as a sphere rather than a venue, but in the end it will encompass everything in existence.
● 1Cor 15:26-28 . . . He has put everything under his feet. Now when it says that "everything" has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.
● Phil 2:9-11 . . God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
POPULATION CLOCK UPDATE: 1,087 days have elapsed since beginning the thread. If the figures in post #1 are within reason, then something like 66,023,510 new arrivals have checked into the fiery sector of hades since June 19, 2017.
