It's not difficult to understand. The Kingdom of God has two distinct aspects. Many theologians label them "the now" and "the not yet".

Here is one text that talks about "the now" aspect of the kingdom in this current age:

Rom 14:17-18
17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18 because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.
NIV

A little bit more clarification about the kingdom, such as what happens when a believer dies?

1. The body dies, but the soul lives and ascends to heaven where it lives until Christ returns. Heaven, therefore, is the intermediate state between this life and life on the new earth for all born again believers.

2. Christ returns and resurrects the righteous and the unrighteous alike and judges both groups. The unrighteous are cast into the Lake of Fire forever. The resurrected righteous, now in their new spiritual bodies, reign with Christ on the new earth for all eternity.

Mr. PA, here is what Paul thought of the Jews' status before God:

Rom 9:1-5
2 I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race, 4 the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption as sons; theirs the divine glory, the covenants , the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. 5 Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen.
NIV

Sounds like the Hebrews were mighty privileged race. Much more so than any peoples amongst the Gentiles.

Eph 2:12-13
12 ...remember that at that time you [gentiles] were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.
NIV

So why did God annul once and for all the Mosaic Covenant with the nation of Israel in 70 A.D.? Have you asked rabbi Singer yet?

Hey...Boxcar works in mysterious ways, just like the Lord. They are both "holy"...and that's how "holiness" works.

My wager wasn't with everyone on the forum. It was with one guy. And the deal was that January 20th would decide who won, and Hcap did agree to that; but he didn't stick around to collect. His big mouth got him into trouble.

Wouldn't it be easier for you to just admit that you are not a man of your word? You may be one of "God's chosen few"...but you seem to come up a little short in the "integrity" department. Is that so hard a thing for you to admit...at least to yourself?

Dig up Hcap and I'll honor my word. He was scared to death of covid, so he's probably triple-masked up hiding under some rock somewhere.

Happy hunting.

Why would I care what Paul thought or wrote?

Oh, we definitely have seen him before.

It's amazing how the people who despise and spit on this place the most, are the ones who just CAN NOT STAY AWAY.
