DESIRE GOD
Jesus pointed out, “GOD WANTED THE PEOPLE TO LIVE
BY THE LAW OF MOSES AND THE WRITINGS OF THE
PROPHETS. BUT EVER SINCE JOHN CAME, THE GOOD
NEWS ABOUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS BEING TOLD.
NOW EVERYONE IS TRYING HARD TO GET INTO THE
KINGDOM” [Lk 16:16 IC]{Mt 11:12}. As we learn about how
wonderful the kingdom of God is, we want to make every effort to
be in the kingdom of God. So that people would not misunderstand
Jesus’ words about the law, He added, “EVEN THE SMALLEST
PART OF A LETTER IN THE LAW CANNOT BE
CHANGED. IT WOULD BE EASIER FOR HEAVEN AND
EARTH TO PASS AWAY” [Lk 16:17 IC] and yet today some
have made up teachings that we no longer have to follow the law.
Most of Jesus’ teachings help us realize what good news God’s
kingdom represents, including some reminding us that obeying
God and His law are important. Do you want God’s kingdom?
