主禱文: 願神的國降臨。。。
還有: 天國近了。。。
1。當今教會,是地上國,非天國。
啟5
9. 他們唱新歌,說,你配拿書卷,配揭開七印。因為你曾被殺,用自己的血從各族各方,各民各國中買了人來,叫他們歸於神,
9. And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10. 又叫他們成為國民,作祭司,歸於神。在地上執掌王權。
10. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
2。世上的國成為神的國(天國)
啟示錄 - 第 11 章 第 15 節
第七位天使吹號,天上就有大聲音說,世上的國,成了我主和主基督的國。他要作王,直到永永遠遠。
The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever."
3。聖城耶路撒冷是最終天國,那時天地合一。
啟21
2我又看見聖城新耶路撒冷由神那裡從天而降,預備好了,就如新婦妝飾整齊,等候丈夫。
2. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.
3. 我聽見有大聲音從寶座出來說,看哪,神的帳幕在人間。他要與人同住,他們要作他的子民,神要親自與他們同在,作他們的神。
