From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
An important question that should concern me is how am I called to live my life in the Kingdom of Heaven in the here and now? Ancillary questions are: How do I encourage and lead those whom the Lord has put into my care to live Kingdom oriented lives? How do I recognize others with the same objective?
A dear brother in the Lord has suggested that the answers to these questions are laid out in Matthew 5 -7, otherwise know as the Sermon on the Mount.
Join me, please, as I attempt to dig out an understanding of the answers to these questions. They are important questions for the answers define how we seek to live when we believe, trust, commit, obey the LORD, God the Almighty.
