I get what you are saying but we are still amongst our fellow man and loving all as self is not restricted to in the Kingdom IMO. For instance, take the old Red Cross before it privatized. In wars of the last century it treated enemy and own alike, thus setting the example of the Kingdom. Yes the self serving ways of man can influence us and some are consumed by the weeds as the parable says, but if the contrast and choice between the ways of man and ways of God are clear it should be easy to pick out those who favour self interest and gain at the expense of others, versus those of the example i gave. All may stumble but allegiance should not change if they truly belong to the Kingdom.Clarifying - I think new creations must as new creations in Jesus focus as it were on Jesus, or on the Father/ God's Kingdom.
If someone focus's on others , they are distracted from Jesus' leading and away from God's Kingdom, I think.
