We love our own little kingdom. In fact, I am convinced that we often place our own little kingdom in such a position that we don’t even have a view of the kingdom of God. The strange thing is that we talk as if we really believe in the beauty and glory of God’s kingdom but, if our lives were ever biblically examined, it would quickly become obvious that our prayer often looks more like “my kingdom come, my will be done, on earth as it ought to be in heaven.”

This is what troubles so many unsaved people as they consider the claims of Christ. They can’t get past the “followers” of Christ and their little kingdoms on earth. This is exactly what Gandi was referring to when he said the following:

“I like your Christ, but I do not like your Christians.
Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
