 Invest In Hope: Jesus answered Pilate, “My kingdom is not from this world.” John 18:36
Both his followers and opponents assumed Jesus’ kingdom would be in the land of Judea. But Jesus was preaching a much greater kingdom, a world-wide realm of justice, of love, of peace. We participate in that realm through our faith and the way we treat one another.
