One of the most refreshing developments in recent Western Christian theology is the rediscovery of the Kingdom of God concept in the gospel. Jesus led the in-breaking of the presence of God into the world in a variety of stunning ways, including healing the sick, casting out evil, and feeding the hungry. He brought justice to the down-and-out. He had control over every aspect of nature in order to show us what the world ought to look like – that the world was not intended for suffering, despair, and oppression, or decay, but that we were intended to live in a physical and spiritual world of harmony, peace, joy, and life.
