Scripture - John 18:36 "Jesus said,'My Kingdom is notof this world. If it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My Kingdom is from another place." Jesus stood before Pilate and is being questioned about whether He is a King or not. Jesus said that His Kingdomis not of this world. Every Kingdom haas servants, and as believers we are servants of the Kingdom of God. We are in this world but we are not of this world, like Jesus' Kingdom is not of this world. As servants of the Kingdom of God, we should thus live in such a way as is fit for that Kingdom. If we were of the world, we would live as someone of the world. We were once of the world but died for the world when we accepted Jesus as personal Saviour. We are dead for sin but alive for Christ. A Christians we shoul dget to know the King of our Kingdom more and more so we would know how to live as servants of our King. A servant follow his king and knows what his king expacts from him. We are thus in a training school of the Kingdom of God to learn how to live as Kingdom people. Blessings
