Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church

The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son... When you hear words such as that, about the kingdom of heaven, your thoughts perhaps immediately go to the future. To the second coming of Christ. But that would be a mistake. Because what we need to realize and remember is that the kingdom of heaven is not just a future hope or dream -- the kingdom of heaven is already here and now. For wherever the King is, there is His Kingdom; there He is ruling for the good of His people.
