One can't see it unless God enables one to see the Kingdom Kingdom can't be enter unless you are spiritually changed new life and born again and baptised with water and the Spirit Nicodemus did not understans or he would not have answered Jesus thinking how he would have to enter his mother's womb again (John 3:4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old?

Jesus is teaching us that the Kingdom is a far greater treasure to have than what we have in money,power etc and far more valuable than what we have. We are tempted to value it so little because we value possessions ,power ,money they are the root of all evil To listen to the teachings of the Lord our God we can learn to understand and to foolow that lead my testimony of how my life was before I was saved and to shine the light for Jesus and how I behave in my christian life is a beacon of what God has done for me would help friends family and even strangers to know what he has done for me and that I will inherit eternal life in the kingdom and if they follow me towards Jesus they too can inherit the treasures of the Kingdom.....

Why did he reject the offer? poverty and self-sacrifice is not what Jesus is asking really,he was trying to find out if how far the man was prepaired to go for God as is said we cannot worship two Gods there is only one way to the Kingdom and that is to follow Christ.

If there was no other way for the man to be saved, what does that say about the spiritual dangers of wealth? Jesus wanted to know if the young rulers heart was pure,and what he was prepaired to give up for God! why it trouble us so much is we live in a world that money wealth and power is our ruler asking us to give up on our possessions would be like asking to cut off our limbs.Money,power etc are not the way to the riches that await us in the kingdom ,as Gods treasures are more than what we can ever imagine. It is saying about the spiritual dangers of wealth being we cannot worship both money and God we need to serve only one GOD

Q4. (Luke 17:33-36) What does our passage teach about the separation and judgment that will occur when the Kingdom comes? How should this affect our lives? Our testimony? Our love for our neighbors? Jesus teaches us that the time is coming ,He is coming,not the way he came before,it will be quick,sudden people will be seperated (even the dead)He will come like a thief in the night husbands and wives will be seperated siblings,neighbours. We have to show people NOW while we have the chance that the Lord Jesus is the only way,we should shine Jesus' love so others will see and change before it is too late,our testimony should be our love of Jesus and walk in his way.Some will be saved and go on to everlasting life others will die and be left behind.what an aweful thought but it is one that is coming so we musr be prepaired for his coming.The coming of the Kingdom

Q3. (Luke 17:24-32) What indications does Jesus give in this passage that he will suddenly come in his Kingdom without further warning? What are the implications of this for our attitude? For our lives? Jesus only tells us like Noah and Lot that he will come swiflty and without warning people will be going about there usual business when he will come. We are told by Jesus not to go back for anything Whoever tries to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it." (Luke 17:31-33) Those who are concerned about material things will be destroyed. Only those who look forward to the Lord's coming will be saved. Though told to run for her life without looking back, Lot's wife paused and looked back longingly at Sodom -- and became a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:17, 23-26).

Q1. (Luke 17:21) In what sense was the Kingdom of God present in the Person and ministry of Jesus? In what sense is the Kingdom of God present today? The Kingdom of God is within your heart within oneself and the teachings of what Jesus was yet to teach. The Kingdom of God in present day is not unsimilar to those of Jesus Day,we still have to abide in the Holy law that God has written and we as desciples of Christ must carry God's word to unbelievers and sinners the world over.he has sent the Holy spirit to cleanse us and we must shine in his light AMEN

Q3. (Matthew 13:23) Even good soil can have factors that hinder growth in various parts of the field, or make some areas grow taller and fuller wheat. What factors make a disciple especially good soil for the growth of the word or message of the Kingdom? What might be the reasons for 30-fold, 60-fold, and 100-fold growth? As with a good seed they need good soil, sun, water, food, and weeded daily. So the seedlings grow in strength. A good disciple needs to listen and understand the word of God and what Jesus has been telling us about the Holy Spirit and the kingdom. as for what is sown on good soil, this is the one who hears and understands it he indeed bears s fruit and yields in one case a hundred fold in another sixty and another 30 (Matthew 13v23)

Q2. (Matthew 13:22; Luke 8:14) Which of the thorns that Jesus mentions do you think is the most dangerous: Riches, worries/cares, or pleasures? Why do you think so? All the three thorns are dangerous, because they all choke our faith and trust in God and the Lord Jesus. Sin is the wrong way and takes us on a rocky path full of weeds that choke the life out of the seed, and like that seed we need to listen and hear the Word of God and follow the right path we can only do this by (like the seed) spread our roots and grow strong in our faith and trust in the Lord Jesus and weed out the weeds (sin) in our lives and grow in the love and Grace of Jesus and God
