Sample Book Insights:#1 The mission of Jesus was and is to preach the good news of the kingdom of God, to say to one and all, I am the King of kings and Lord of lords, and I am using My power to fix everything that sin has ruined.#2 The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Jesus came to earth to save us from our sins so that we can go to heaven. But his message is much more grand and sweeping than this. He is the King who is bringing healing to the entire cosmos.#3 The disciples asked Jesus if He was the Messiah, and Jesus answered that He was. He preached the good news of the kingdom, and He showed the good news of the kingdom. His deeds were essential to proving that He was the Messiah.#4 Many Christians, like the pastor of the church Charles grew up in, believed that Christianity primarily consisted of keeping one’s soul pure by avoiding alcohol, drugs, and sexual impurity. There was little now of the kingdom for them apart from the saving of souls.
