The Tower of Babel and Empire

The kingdom of God is salvation in its full expression, and it's all a gift. In the midst of the human catastrophe and civilization gone wrong from the very foundation, God has acted and given to us the Kingdom of God. We cannot build it or fight for it. We can only perceive the kingdom by faith and receive it as a gift. But because human history is mostly about building and fighting and constructing empires, that is cam only be done by faith is very hard for us to comprehend. We think all the great things are built and fought for. But that is a lie. The kingdom of God is the Father's gift to humanity, given in Christ. It's all a gift.
