The Principles of the Kingdom of God
by Dr. Myles Munroe
THE PRINCIPLES OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
I believe that the anointed teachings of the late Dr. Myles Munroe are essential to every believer. Because he grew up in the Bahamas, which was a colony of Great Britain, God has revealed to him a unique understanding of how kingdoms operate. This is a concept completely lost to many of us who have been raised in the United States and other areas of the world, which are outside the bounds of a kingdom.
Although I had read through the Bible many times, my eyes were blinded to one of the greatest themes of Scripture, all because I had no concept of a kingdom.
"The heart of Jesus' teachings centers around the theme of the kingdom of God. This expression is found in sixty-one separate sayings in the Synoptic Gospels. Counting parallels to these passages, the expression occurs over eighty-five times. It also occurs twice in John (3:3, 5). It is found in such key places as the preaching of John the Baptist, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near" ( Matt 3:2 ); Jesus'earliest announcement, "The time has come… The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!" ( Mark 1:15 ; cf. Matt 4:17 ; Luke 4:42-43 );the prayer Jesus taught his disciples, "your kingdom come" ( Matt 6:10 ); in the Beatitudes, "for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" ( Matthew 5:3 Matthew 5:10 ); at the Last Supper, "I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God" ( Mark 14:25 ); and in many of Jesus' parables ( Matthew 13:24 Matthew 13:44 Matthew 13:45 Matthew 13:47 ; Mark 4:26 Mark 4:30 ; Luke19:11 ).

In most of our western churches, we tend to focus on aspects of what Jesus did--his crucifixion, his baptism, the sermon on the mount, healing the sick, walking on water, helping those in need, etc--but to properly understand the Bible, we need to understand what the Living Word said. The most prominent theme that Jesus, John the Baptist, and all of the disciples preached was the Kingdom of God.
So, get your Bibles and a pen and notebook ready and enjoy these anointed video teachings of Dr. Myles Munroe on the Kingdom of God.
