"The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches." --Matthew 13:31-32

When Jesus began his ministry, he announced that the kingdom of God was at hand. But many modern-day Christians don't really understand what the kingdom of God is or how it relates to the message of the gospel.

Defining kingdom as the King's power over the King's people in the King's place, Patrick Schreiner investigates the key events, prophecies, and passages of Scripture that highlight the important theme of kingdom across the storyline of the Bible--helping readers see how the mission of Jesus and the coming of the kingdom fit together.

Part of the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series.

“Patrick Schreiner beautifully traces the theme of Gods kingdom through the entire Bible. The threads of his kingdom can be seen from Adam to Abraham, through Psalms and Isaiah, to Jesus and his church, and finally to the new heaven and the new earth, where Christ will reign with his people in his place. Schreiner skillfully shows us the inseparability of Gods kingdom, the cross of Jesus, and the gospel message. I highly recommend this interesting and encouraging book!”

“To say that the story of the Bible is the story of the King and his kingdom is one thing; to see it clearly and concisely demonstrated from every part of the Bible is another. I look forward to recommending this book to those who love and appreciate biblical theology as well as those who love Christ and the Bible but havent yet understood how to see King Jesus throughout its entire story.”

“Patrick Schreiner has given a wonderful gift to the church through this book on the kingdom of God. Its a creatively written and accessible entryway into this essential biblical theme. Schreiner honors the unified narrative shape of the Old and New Testaments, and he shows how every part of the Bible (including the Wisdom Literature!) contributes to the developing portrait of Gods kingdom over creation and new creation. If youve ever struggled to understand this complex biblical theme or tried to communicate it to others, youve now found the place to start.”

“Patrick Schreiners biblical theology of the kingdom of God is exactly what the church needs to help her pursue Gods justice on earth: a lucid, precise, and concise book about the kingdom of God thats grounded in accessible biblical exegesis and provides keen theological insights, while keeping the cross of Jesus at the center of the analysis. Highly recommended!”

“The kingdom of God is central to the biblical storyline and should become central in our theology. A clear, faithful, and solid portrayal of the kingdom, this volume helps us both understand the biblical teaching on the kingdom and view the Bible through the vantage point of the kingdom of God.”
