What is the Kingdom of God?

the kingdom of God is Jesus Christ, it is He who came with the good news of the kingdom. and he says that his kingdom is not form this world - john 18:36, so we have to accept and acknowledge the love of Jesus in order to inherit the kingdom of God; also wherever Jesus is obviously there is the presence of his kingdom, and therefore this implies that one who has Jesus in his heart, mind, soul and strength, then he/she has the kingdom of God with him/her. thanks and God bless you all
