Nobody Expects… The Kingdom of God
Reading Time: 15 minutesIn his hometown synagogue, Jesus proclaimed the scripture fulfilled, he said the authority of the anointed was come, that the kingdom of God had at last arrived, the same message that had produced such tremendous results in Capernaum and throughout Galilee, but in Nazareth nothing happened. There were no miracles in Nazareth, no demons cast out, no eyes given to the blind, no lame walked. The kingdom of God had indeed arrived but the unbelief of the people of Nazareth hindered Jesus’ authority to deliver them. Unbelief prevented God from reigning in their circumstances. Unbelief thwarted the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. The kingdom of God has been here and people have been not believing and not receiving ever since.
