The kingdom of God can only exist in the lives of those who have had the seed of the kingdom, the word of God (Lk. 8: 11), sown in their hearts. The kingdom of God is within. It dwells in the heart, the love, and the affections of its members. We are obligated to God to give the church the exalted position in our hearts that He gave the church in the Word of God</blockquote>
