Quote of the Week: Seek the Kingdom
“To seek first the kingdom is to desire above all to enter into, submit to, and participate in spreading the news of the saving reign of God, the messianic kingdom already inaugurated by Jesus." - D. A. Carson
As we seek to apply Matthew 6:33 this week, and even think forward to this Sunday's text on making kingdom investments with our lives (Matthew 25:14-30, The Parable of the Talents), we should keep in mind the following framework.
1) Enter into the saving reign of God through repentance and faith.
2) Submit to the saving reign of God through radical obedience.
3) Spread the news of the saving reign of God through joyful boldness.
