Not Of This World? ... Of What Then?

Devotional Reading:

John18:33-36
My Kingdom Is Not of This World ] So Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?” Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. What have you done?”
Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”
John18:33-40 (in Context)

Devotional Question:
Of What Then? What Was It? What Was On Jesus' Heart?

Devotional Reading:

Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:9-11 (in Context)

Devotional Question:
On Earth? As It Is In Heaven?

Did You Know?
You can have assurance of salvation. Some people say you must be "Dead Sure" (and most certainly dead) to be assured... but that simply is not what God's Word says! Christ doesn't call us to doubt him. Christ paid the penalty - he accomplished the work we could never do ourselves.

All other religions say, “here is what you have to do.” – and you can't be certain it will be enough.”
Christianity says, “it is done.”  – and for those who truly trust in Christ, eternity with God is assured!”
