Do these qualities describe something in a person's heart or a real government?
The question as it is framed really sets up a false dichotomy.
IE. "real government" verses "something in a person's heart."
The kingdom of the heavens in the book of [b]Matthew is firstly inward in the disciples. It is even hidden yet real. Even ...[text shortened]... of the kingdom of God - its critical inward reality and the reward of its outward manifestation.[/b]

Nonsense and unsupported by the original language or the context.

I never watch any of your YouTube videos Jonah. If you can explain in simple terms how the verse at Matthew supports the position (that the Kingdom of God is within) both linguistically and contextually then please do so.

Sorry I was unaware that you had come to this realisation. What do you plan to do about it?

If you can, address the issue in the topic you started.
My question does relate to your uncalled for accusation against JW's.
It would be good to know your viewpoint in making that accusation.
It would also be good if you could contribute any constructive thoughts to the subject of God's Kingdom being real or not.
Originally posted by divegeester No, there is no "direction". There is only forum etiquette and intellectual honesty, both of which you are sadly lacking. The words you posted in YOUR opening post, which is not a reply/quote of another post in the same thread, are SOME ELSE'S words which you are trying to pass off as your own. Your JW buddy Galveston75 was repeatedly called out over the same issue.
So your spewing ad hominum attacks is considered good etiquette?
Do you have any thoughts about God's Kingdom being real?
