The subject of the Kingdom of God is an exhaustive study on which multitudes of books and syllabi have been and will be written, with many only scratching the surface of this topic's depth. I received the revelation contained in this book as I studied the kingdom parables and ministered these truths in my church. What I am about to pen didn't come from today's popular teaching on eschatology (the study of end-time events), what I learned in Sunday school as a child, or even what is being taught by many of today's so-called end-time Bible prophecy teachers. It has come from studying these parables in the Greek language, as well as applying them through present-day truth. Some will reject the teaching in this book because of their own misconception with one word: "kingdom." Those who know me know that I have never shied away from controversial subjects just because the religious world doesn't understand or agree with them. As an Apostle/Pastor, I daily see the condition of the church, where we are, and more importantly, where we need to go! People spend millions of dollars each year on the newest Bible prophecy books, as well as subscribing to end-time gurus' literature predicting the next flood, earthquake, disaster, or even worse, some mathematical or Biblical equation as to the Lord's return. More importantly than the hour of His return (which, by the way, Jesus Himself doesn't know), the church should be taught the meaning of Jesus' words "...Occupy till I come" (Luke 19:13). Many of God's people have grown "weary" (Galatians 6:9); some have "shipwrecked their faith" (I Timothy 1:19); their "love has waxed cold" (Matthews 24:12); or even worse, "departed from the faith" (I Timothy 4:1). Our precious brothers and sisters need to be taught how to live victorious in the HERE AND NOW. They need the great stories of the Bible brought to where they live TODAY. You are about to be challenged in your religious mindsets, changed more into His image as these truths come alive and finally blessed beyond measure. Dr Don D Hughes Apostolic Leader REV House, Inc
