The kingdom among you
To receive Him - the King - is also to receive his royal government, not only in our lives and our affairs, but through it and through the service of love that we dedicate to him, "the Kingdom of God is among you", Jesus said, when the Pharisees asked, when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered them and said: The Kingdom of God will not come with warning, nor will they say: Here it is, or there it is; for behold, the kingdom of God is among you (Luke 17.20-21)
This can never be possible if we act independently of God, that is, of his power and his grace
The possibility of recovering what is lost with the fall of grace comes only through the forgiveness of sins and full redemption in Christ through the cross, in the Bible it is not even suggested that there is a divine spark in the human being , which can be inflamed by means of noble human efforts, or that the divinity resides in some way in human beings, so that they are able to reach "gods", on the contrary, the human being is lost in the darkness and away from God
However, full salvation restores relationships with God and opens the doors to the rule of his kingdom and opens the doors to the empire of his kingdom that "among us is", while we walk with him, Jesus has sent the Holy Spirit so that the The anointing of Jesus as the Messiah was also transmitted to us because if so, and on these terms only a human being can say: "The kingdom of GodIt is in me "
