Understanding the Kingdom of God through Jesus’ teaching
This non-fiction work examines how Jesus’ idea of the kingdom of God centers on a loving Father, forgiveness, and a present, transforming fellowship with God.

- See how forgiveness features as the foundation of the saved life and communal duty
- Explore how the kingdom is described as both a present reality and a future hope

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the historical development of Jesus' teachings, from their Jewish religious roots to their ultimate Christian expression. The author argues that Jesus' teachings were not a radical departure from Judaism, but rather a continuation and fulfillment of its prophetic tradition. The book is divided into three sections. The first section examines the religious conceptions of the Jews in Jesus' time and how they influenced his own teachings. The second section examines the external aspects of Jesus' teachings, such as his use of parables and other literary devices. The third section examines the main themes of Jesus' teachings, such as the kingdom of God, righteousness, and salvation. The author concludes by arguing that Jesus' teachings are still relevant for today, and that they can help us to understand the world around us and to live more meaningful lives.
