The Kind of King Jesus Is - King and His Kingdom - Joey McLaughlin

What kind of king is Jesus?
What kind of king was He expected to be?
Throughout Scripture, the Kingdom of God has a lot of different names. At times it is called the Kingdom of Christ, or just the kingdom or the Kingdom of Christ and God, or the kingdom of his beloved son. The gospel writer Matthew refers to it as the Kingdom of heaven, the kingdom of heaven. Now this creates quite the problem for our modern 21st century ears, because when we see or hear the Kingdom of heaven, we immediately think this mysterious place in the sky that we will one day go to when we die.
And the challenge with that is that Jesus didn't come as much to get us into this mysterious place called heaven as he did come to bring heaven to earth, to bring his kingdom down, to bring his kingdom here. He prays this in the Lord's Prayer, what has been called the Lord's Prayer in Matthew chapter six, verse ten, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
