“So what is the kingdom of God? Sinclair Ferguson defines the kingdom as ‘the rule and reign of God, the expression of his gracious sovereign will. To belong to the kingdom of God is to belong to the people among whom the reign of God has already begun.’ George Eldon Ladd defines the kingdom as ‘the realm in which God’s reign may be experienced.’ Simply put, the kingdom of God is a kingdom where God’s appointed King—Jesus—is presently reigning in and through the lives of His people, accomplishing His will ‘on earth as it is in heaven’ (Mt 6:10).” -- Tullian Tchividjian
