All of us Christians or Jews have heard of the Kingdom of God and would somehow like to participate in it. Many references to this reign can be found in the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures. Christ stated that the time of the Kingdom had come, but since that time the world has significantly worsened. Nowadays, there seems to be no hope that humanity will be able to overcome the state of injustice and moral degeneration found on all sides. Do we really understand what the Kingdom of God means?

The Kingdom is a relevant issue for biblical Israel, the people of Scripture, since if we are part of this nation, we are the descendants of Abraham. As such, we must fulfill the task of illuminating the world with wisdom and a happy life. At the beginning of the Christian era, the Kingdom began to be announced by John, was consolidated by Christ, and became the apostles’ main hope. Therefore, in Scripture, what matters to all of us is the implantation of the Kingdom, without which there will be no future.
Today’s followers of Scripture have differing opinions about the Kingdom. Some believe it would only be a reference to a certain state of morality to be acquired by instruction. Others would be a place in heaven where good men would be taken after the end-of-world crisis. It seems clear that the words of the Messiah do not point to any of these paths at all. They imply that souls need to be saved from a situation of conduct, concepts and life that undermines their existence and the construction of sustainable life.
Souls in their natural state are inwardly disorganized. Therefore, they produce a confusing and meaningless life around them. Souls, that is, men must be corrected by Divine morality. It is the only way to transform the earthly world into a happy home. First of all it is necessary for the Kingdom to be established within us, and then to become an outer Kingdom. Obviously this will only be possible if we consider the eternity of souls and their continuous and progressive rebirth.
The Scriptures speak of the Kingdom of God and indicate that it will be established on earth and not in heaven. “The righteous shall inherit the earth, and dwell in it forever.” Quotes like this are in various sacred writings. Souls are eternal and are continually born to work in building the future. This is the basic law of Creation.
Should the People of God live like other men? Certainly not! We have a Scripture made especially for us. And if so, we should strive to understand the Creator’s purposes by working to establish a foundation of understanding for our People. The division of thought into innumerable strands, although it seems conquest, is also an evil. You can’t imagine a boat with occupants rowing each one in a certain direction. It will not get anywhere. Therefore, efforts must be made to reach a process of theological convergence that will help us move towards the dreamed unity of the People.
We are gods and children of the Most High, say the Scriptures, begotten from the Divine bowels to enjoy existence, the outer life. He begot us to inhabit the Kingdom. Whoever says otherwise contravenes the Creator’s grand purpose of making the world a truly civilized planet. Our community is working on developing a new and liberal theology for the sole purpose of serving the God of Israel. The old world of injustice, false knowledge and wickedness is near death. This will happen in a man-made crisis. This is what the Hebrew and Christian prophecies say. If you are awakening to this reality and have sympathy for these ideals, join us. There is so much to do and advertise!
