    About this ebook

    The future hope of heaven is pulled into the here-and-now in this illuminating description of the kingdom of God.

    Popular teacher and author R. Alan Streett exposes half-truths about the kingdom that many believers have unwittingly accepted. He contrasts these with the testimony of Scripture:

    • Jesus inaugurated the kingdom of God on the earth—it has already begun. As ambassadors of the kingdom, we are to fulfill our responsibilities and enjoy its benefits here and now.
    • Salvation does not culminate with the soul escaping the body and living forever in heaven. Our bodies will eventually be transformed, and we will live with God on a restored earth.
    • The church is like an embassy of heaven in a foreign country. In their life together, believers demonstrate kingdom realities to the world.

    Readers will find hope and direction in this fresh presentation of the historic teaching on the kingdom.
