Unfortunetely, alot of Christians have this greater than thou attitude. We almost treat the unbeliever has some sort of black plaque, when we should be seeking these people out. Christians have a commission handed down from Jesus...go out into the world and save souls. Too many times this doesn't happen or happens very little. There are those Christians out there, many of them, who are trying thier hardest to create this "kingdom" on earth. Its hard to do. We live in a secular world. A place where Satan rules more often than not. Christians are subject to this also. I think alot of Christians are caught up in Heaven, and being in Heanven, and worrying about how your going to get there. Instead, do your commission and worry about those who are not going to make. This will begin this "kingdom" on earth one lost soul at a time.

The Kingdom is Heaven - where one goes when they die. As a Christian, we practice the word & beliefs of Jesus here on earth.

John 18:36 (Amplified Bible)
36Jesus answered, My kingdom (kingship, royal power) belongs not to this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My followers would have been fighting to keep Me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, My kingdom is not from here (this world); [it has no such origin or source].

People are so concerned with why other people are not practicing building a kingdom on earth that they forget to look at themselves.

We do our best in a screwed up world. Satan is still running around loose tempting people but his time is growing short and he will be put into a bottomless pit never to tempt again and he is scared of that so lets tempt people to go with us see is his thinking Misery loves company right? God will bring his kingdom when we have learned something down here and when Hes ready to do so It is hic choice when to do that...

The kingdom lives in the heart of those who call on Jesus' name

Good point :) His kingdom isn't of this world though, although the New Jerusalem will come down from heaven (read revelation).

We do.
We bow before the throne of the King routinely. We worship, petition, and bow to the King. We acknowledge His reign continuously. We devote all or part of our lives to Him. We read his Word, and we apply it to our lives. Because we are who we are, we err and fail, but we keep trying in sincerity.
Behold, He stands at the door and knocks. If you will open the door, He will come in.
Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
