The kingdom of God embraces all created intelligence, both in heaven and earth that are willingly subject to the Lord and are in fellowship with Him.  The kingdom of God is, therefore, universal in that it includes created angels and men.  It is eternal, as God is eternal, and it is spiritual - found within all born-again believers.  We enter the kingdom of God when we are born again, and we are then part of that kingdom for eternity.  It is a relationship "born of the spirit" (John 3:5), and we have confident assurance that it is so because the Spirit bears witness with our spirits (Romans 8:16).

The kingdom of God is subjected to God and will be for eternity.  The rest of creation will be destroyed.  Only that which is part of the "kingdom of God" will remain.

To be loved by God is the most amazing feeling ever.  There is nothing average about the God we know, the Father we long to serve.  He's unconventional and exorbitant.  He's extravagant in His giving.  He's unrestrained in his love for us.  Infact, God is extraordinary in every way.  His truth and glory are revealed in His Son, Jesus Christ.  And we see it everyday in the universe he created, in the lives of others and in our own experience.

Experiencing God's love and loving Him in return is not just about living a good life.  It's not just about duty or obedience.  It's about loving with abandon.  It's knowing He's still there when everyone else has left.
