This week our lecture topic was "the two kingdoms"
we learned about the Kingdom of the World and the Kingdom of God. It is such foundational teaching and most of us were quite shocked that we have never really had teaching on this before in our christian lives. It was such great teaching from an amazing Norwegian teacher.... those of us who have grown up in the church were very happy to have a way to organize all this bible knowledge that is floating around in our heads without a "place" to put it...
We are citizens of the Kingdom of God. Jesus is our King. Love is our constition...and our future is Heaven. We have different rules than the Kingdom of the World because these two spiritual kingdoms are opposites... We are called to love those who hate us. Pray for our enemies. Turn the other cheek...
Also we learned about relationships but only briefly becuase fitting two weeks of teaching into oen week is a little difficult for someone who is longwinded... haha... but we learned alot about bitterness and selflessness... and forgivnes... and it to was very refreshing teaching.
We also found out our possible outreach locations on friday morning...
Nepal
Uganda
China
Cambodia...
those are my choices... and at the moment that is the order of preference i have. Nepal being first and Cambodia being last... I really wanted to go to India.. but as you can see its not an option... so we'll see where i go.
