Answer 1

The Kingdom of heaven and the Kingdom of God are one and the same contrary to some beliefs.

Answer 2

properly i've got faith there may well be, based on what you think of the "kingdom of Heaven" is and at what element in time. The observe "kingdom" potential the King and His dominion. Heaven is anyplace God is. there is besides the indisputable fact that a gulf in heaven, defined by utilising Jesus here: Luke sixteen:26 (26) And beside all this, between us and you there's an remarkable gulf fastened: so as that they which might bypass from for this reason to you may no longer; neither can they bypass to us, that would come from thence. examine Luke sixteen in its entirety. The "saved" bypass on one side, the unsaved bypass on the different. they are able to make certain the throne of God yet won't be able to recommendations-set it. So definite, there's a distinction because of the fact although they have entered God's Kingdom, they do no longer look to be saved. whether or no longer they are going to be saved on the top of the single thousand 3 hundred and sixty 5 days reign, i do no longer know. some is in simple terms no longer. So at this element there's a distinction. sometime there is in simple terms no longer.

Answer 3

In some places it's called the Kingdom of God, & in other places the Kingdom of Heaven. The word "of" means from. Like Joe is the son of Bob. Joe is from Bob or of Bob.
The Kingdom is from God! God is in the third heaven & that is where the Kingdom is being prepared & when the time is right it will be set up here on earth. It is also true that this Kingdom will be coming from heaven. You read in Revelation chapter 21 of New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven to the new earth. The only thing I can think of when it says " The Kingdom of the Heavens" is that it will be the Kingdom over all other kingdoms. In Rev. 19:16 Jesus is called "LORD of Lords & KING of Kings"

Since your showing this phrase of yours to be a quote maybe you would like to provide us with its source as well. That would help in answering your question.

Thank you for providing the source.I am sorry for answering so rudely.There are so many that come on here and twist the scriptures around. Please forgive me.

Now to your question. I don't know a lot about the different translations but, I do know that the NASB Bible is so close to the Greek interpretation that those studying Greek Theology us it instead of the Greek now. I use the KJV, but I looked up Matthew 5:3 on the NASB from my computer and it read the same as the KJV. I am not sure that the version your using is that accurate, but await your thoughts on this.

I recently noticed that the Good News Bible, Todays English Version Completely leaves out Matthew 17:21, a very important scripture.

I give you a star for such a good question. Keep the faith!

Answer 5

No one alive can give you the actual answer. I can give you a highly simplified answer that makes sense to me and which I believe in.
Think of the levels of heaven like the stairs on the corporate ladder, only you cant step on ppl to get ahead, only to go down. The world is a classroom, we choose to reincarnate in order to learn what we must know to proceed. I think we are a tad big headed to think we can join God and learn what we need to by living only once.The kingdom of heaven is where we abide until we are ready to join God in His kingdom.
When we are born again, (note this is the same phrase that trad. christians use.), we do not remember anything except for what we learn here. That's why you do not remember previous reincarnations. Reincarnation is believed in by most religions, except the christian one.

Blessed Be

Answer 6

I have heard argument that one is available now, and the other does not exist until Christ returns, but I’m not so sure that’s true.

1 Cor 4:20 says that the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.

I believe that we operate within the kingdom when we take up the authority that God gave us

Jhn 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Answer 7

The kingdom of heaven was a physical place promised to be brought to earth for the Jews, had they accepted their Messiah. They didn't. The Kingdom of God is the spiritual place that God inhabits. As a brief explanation.
