The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The trouble with kingdoms of heaven on earth is that they're liable to come to pass, and then their fraudulence is apparent for all to see. We need a kingdom of heaven in Heaven, if only because it can't be realized.
The Kingdom of Heaven is not a place, but a state of mind.
On earth there is no heaven, but there are pieces of it.
The kingdom of heaven is like electricity. You don't see it. It is within you.
Heaven is a very distinct place, where only God's elect will go. It's the place where the only One who deserves any glory lives and reigns.
Heaven will be inherited by every man who has heaven in his soul.
The question of Heaven, the question of what happens after death, is one which a lot of people in our culture try to put off as long as they can, but sooner or later it suddenly swings round and looks them in the eye.
No kingdom has shed more blood than the kingdom of Christ.
The heart of a human being is no different from the soul of heaven and earth. In your practice always keep in your thoughts the interaction of heaven and earth, water and fire, yin and yang.
Jesus said, 'The Kingdom of Heaven is within you.' I think if he lived nowadays, instead of 'kingdom,' he would have said, 'dimension.' And 'heaven' refers to a sense of vastness or spaciousness.
