How the Kingdom Comes

If then you were raised with Christ,
     seek those things which are above, 
         where Christ is, 
         sitting at the right hand of God.

Set your mind on things above, 
    not on things on the earth.  

For you died, and
    your life is hidden with Christ in God.  

When Christ who is our life appears,
    then you also will appear with Him in glory.   Col 3:1-4

This mindset was the guiding principle of the First Christendom.  It will also be the guiding principle of the next.
