Product Description
by Daniel C. Rhodes (Author)
The Message of the Kingdom of God is Eternal It's the Righteous rule and reign of God throughout His creation. Since Jesus began His ministry by proclaiming its existence, so should we. If the Resurrected Christ spent the final 40 days of His earthly ministry "speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God," it must be essential And since the end of the world culminates with these words, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ," there must be a clear explanation of the Kingdom of God and why Jesus commanded us to "Seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness." This workbook is offered in a Teacher and a Student Edition with "Life-Application" Assignments and Review Questions. Included at the end of the workbook is a four-page Glossary of Terms and suggestions for Building a Personal Study Library. Formatted in a "key word" fill-in-the-blank style, it relieves students from taking laborious notes, yet they have a completed notebook for future use. It allows teachers to present this material in an orderly and easy to follow format with the freedom to expand their teaching with illustrations and applications of their own. By the time students complete these four classes, they will become more than just those who understand the Kingdom...they will become "Pursuers of God's Kingdom...Above All Else"
