Rebellion – The Kingdom Rejected
The Kingdom Gospel of Jesus
Genesis 3:1–7; Isaiah 59:2; Romans 3:23
Galatians 1:6–9
In Creation, God made us to reflect His love and rule with Him.
Through Rebellion, we chose sin and were separated from Him.
Yet God gave a Promise of rescue through a coming King.
Christ the King came, lived sinlessly, died, and rose again.
Now all are called to Believe, Repent, and through Baptism,
begin new life. As we Follow Jesus, we live by His Spirit and
await His Return to restore all things.
Rebellion – The Kingdom Rejected
Humanity rebelled against God, choosing self-rule over God’s rule.
Humanity’s biggest problem is not ignorance—it’s rebellion.
Sin: rejecting God’s rule and replacing it with our own.
