Manifestation of the Paradigm of Kingdom of God in the Church and the Whole Earth and the World of Work in the Present and the Future

Abstract

Studies in the Old Testament, the Kingdom of God is a priestly call for
Israel to enter absolute obedience to God and is a model for the pagan
nations, while the New Testament states that the Kingdom of God is seen
as God's government which is already in effect now, although it has a
futurist aspect where it will be fully realized in the future. This research
uses qualitative data as a research method which is supported by several
biblical studies and library literature. The results of the research reveal that
the presence of the Kingdom of God has not only occurred since ancient
times, starting from the journey of the Israelites to the ministry of Jesus in
the world, however, the presence of the Kingdom of God continues to
expand to Christians in the church and throughout the world and the world
of work. Finally, it can be concluded that the Kingdom of God is present
and dominates the lives of Christians until the second coming of the Lord
Jesus, where the real form of the Kingdom of God is truly unshakeable and
will continue to exist forever.
