What do you mean?

On another note: I was reading from 1 Cor 15 this morning about the resurrection -- Paul said something to the effect that

"Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God."

Here the kingdom seems to include those who have been resurrected. If they have been resurrected are they on the earth?

I know there are other references to kingdom, but it is interesting that this passage talks about inheriting the kingdom. Some references to kingdom seem to be present tense (or near future) and some seem to point to the end of the world.

One more kingdom passage:

Jesus' parable about the man who found a treasure (kingdom) in the field (Matt. 13). He hid the treasure and took all he had and purchased the field containing it. Seems somewhat sneaky -- he gave everything he had for the field, but perhaps it was worth more, because the treasure was in it?

Hope you're having a great day today.
