“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and
conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.”
COLOSSIANS 1:13
This
Ultimate Purpose can be summed up into a
single thought, a central idea, that you find weaving its way throughout
the Bible and throughout human history. It is the theme of Jesus, the
preaching of the apostles, and the understanding with which those first
believers became followers of Christ. And this understanding of God’s
Ultimate Purpose and Intention finds expression in something that the
Bible refers to as The Kingdom of God.
At
the center of this
Kingdom of God is a Person. Everything that God has done, is doing, and
will do is centered around this Person. The Bible says that all things
come from Him, through Him, and unto Him. This Person is the Lord Jesus
Christ. It is God’s Will that the King and His Kingdom fill all things
with His Light, His Love, and His Life; and so this Kingdom is
constantly growing, expanding, and increasing.
