The Kingdom of Heaven – Matthew 13
The Kingdom of God – the Big Picture!• Bible more than a collection of Christian writings• Bible is God’s story
– Abraham– promises of a king– New Testament = new dawn
• John Baptist told people to get ready for the king• Jesus said he’d come to bring the kingdom in
