DEEPER INTO THE ABUNDANT LIFE Deeper Renewal: Renewed Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is the world put right, right here and right now, by faith in Christ, until he comes again to make the change permanent. When Jesus comes again, His Kingdom will be beyond imagination. The former things of mourning, crying, and pain will be no more! Life in heaven brings us encouragement for the difficulties we face now. We don’t need to wait for the return of Jesus to enjoy the Kingdom of God. He’s at work today renewing His Kingdom, and He longs to use you to accomplish it!
