Where is the Kingdom of God?
This question was asked on another blog. My answer:
The little Greek word translated here as "among" is εντος it means within, inside or among. The Kingdom of God is both among us and within us.
It is among us as "two or three are gathered together" in the name of God, or for His purpose. It is within us as God and Jesus themselves are in us.
When will the Kingdom come? It is here already, in us and among us.
Once Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, and he answered, "The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed; nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or 'There it is!' For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you." Luke 17:20-21
