At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.

The kingdom of God could be realized simply by daring to live differently from the normal conventions. The kingdom of God in the teachings of Jesus was not an apocalyptic or heavenly projection of otherworldly desire.

And it called for a change of behavior in the present on the part of individuals invested in the vision.

Mack, Burton L.
