Least in the Kingdom

Luke 7:24-30

IN the Kingdom John, more than a prophet Greater than John Coming of the Kingdom Not about our maturity or perfection

Coming INTO the Kingdom Depends on the Tender Mercy of God The Blood of Christ applied to us Put into GOD’s family by Jesus merit Baptized into Jesus

What is least “IN” the Kingdom? One who is least in the Kingdom is one to whom God has extended tender mercy to because of Jesus, no matter his/her level of maturity; if he has submitted to God’s righteousness, not trying to establish his own.

Matthew 5:19-20

Least in “The KINGDOM” Breaking & Teaching Doing & Teaching Heaven itself OR Kingdom on earth? Context of Matthew 5:20

Least in “The KINGDOM” Pharisees were not righteous Not keeping the law They had not done or taught things of the Law Those adhering to the law would adhere to the things of the Kingdom

Least in “The KINGDOM” We are no longer under the Law of Moses Jesus fulfilled the Law and Prophets John 19:28 last prophesy to be fulfilled Luke 24:46 it was necessary for all Both require Obedience

Least in “The KINGDOM” Our adherence to the words of Jesus is the test of our greatness. It is a test of God’s for us, not a test our ours for others. God alone can measure our ‘Greatness’.

Luke 9:46-48

What is “LEAST” in the Kingdom? Dispute among the disciples For greatness Desire for comparative things of men Esteem, Pride, Envy, Jealousy Moved with Indignation They wanted it too

Becoming GREAT in the Kingdom Not a comparison to others It is a commitment to God’s will Does require our maturity Kingdom citizenship is flat

GREAT in the Kingdom Luke 22:24-30 World had “Bosses” Church has “Servants”

Where are you? Greatest Least

Do you want to be known as great in the Kingdom?

Do you want to be known (as great in the Kingdom?)

Do you want to BE great in the Kingdom?

John 7:17 When a sincere heart hears the true Gospel, it just knows it is the truth.
