Cornerstone Of Our Faith, The - The Kingdom Of God And You

Throughout the Bible, God consistently describes our relationship with Him as a king with his subjects. Though people in other cultures might fully comprehend that description, those of us raised in a democratic society struggle to grasp that concept.

God calls His people to submit their personal agendas to His mission. He expects obedience, loyalty, and a servant's heart. None of these come easily or naturally for Christians today. We must learn obedience. We must choose to put kingdom goals ahead of our personal goals. The King calls, we must respond.
