"The coming OF GOD's KINGDOM means the defeat OF Satan's: 'If it is by the Spirit OF GOD that I cast out demons, then the KINGDOM OF GOD has come upon you.'[Mt 12:26, 28 .] Jesus' exorcisms free some individuals from the domination OF demons. They anticipate Jesus' great victory over 'the ruler OF this world'.[Jn 12:31 ; cf. Lk 8:26-39 .] The KINGDOM OF GOD will be definitively established through Christ's cross: 'GOD reigned from the wood.'[LH, Lent, Holy Week, Evening Prayer, Hymn Vexilla Regis: Regnavit a ligno Deus.]" 670. "Since the Ascension GOD's plan has entered into its fulfilment. We are already at 'the last hour'.[1Jn 2:18 ; cf. 1 Pet 4:7 .] 'Already the final age OF the world is with us, and the renewal OF the world is irrevocably under way; it is even now anticipated in a certain real way, for the Church on earth is endowed already with a sanctity that is real but imperfect.'[LG 48 # 3; cf. 1 Cor 10:11 .] Christ's KINGDOM already manifests its presence through the miraculous signs that attend its proclamation by the Church.[Cf. Mk 16:17-18, 20 .] . . . until all things are subjected to him" To view the context, please visit http://www.christusrex.org/www1/CDHN/creed9.html#THENCE 677. "The Church will enter the glory OF the KINGDOM only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection.[Cf. Rev 19:1-9.] The KINGDOM will be fulfilled, then, not by a historic triumph OF the Church through a progressive ascendancy, but only by GOD's victory over the final unleashing OF evil, which will cause his Bride to come down from heaven.[Cf Rev 13:8; Rev 20:7-10; Rev 21:2-4.] GOD's triumph over the revolt OF evil will take the form OF the Last Judgement after the final cosmic upheaval OF this passing world.[Cf. Rev 20:12; 2 Pet 3:12-13 .]" To view the context, please visit http://www.christusrex.org/www1/CDHN/creed9.html#THENCE 709. "The Law, the sign OF GOD's promise and covenant, ought to have governed the hearts and institutions OF that people to whom Abraham's faith gave birth. 'If you will obey my voice and keep my covenant, . . . you shall be to me a KINGDOM OF priests and a holy nation.'[Ex 19:5-6 ; Cf. 1 Pet 2:9 .] But after David, Israel gave in to the temptation OF becoming a KINGDOM like other nations. The KINGDOM, however, the object OF the promise made to David,[Cf. 2 Sam 7 ; Ps 89 ; Lk 1:32-33 .] would be the work OF the Holy Spirit; it would belong to the poor according to the Spirit."
