Introduction:

Through Advent we have been looking at various aspects of the Kingdom of God coming to the earth through His Messiah.

Throughout time the human response to the Kingdom of God doesn’t really change. It usually manifest in one of two ways.

I. The Quest (1-2).

II. The Contrast (3-6).

III. The Revelation (7-12).
