NASB | John 18:36 Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 18:36 Jesus replied, "My kingdom is not of this world [nor does it have its origin in this world]. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would be fighting [hard] to keep Me from being handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this world." |
Bible Question: How come if God created everything in this world, then it says in the Bible- we are not of this world? Didn't Paul say something like, therefore brothers and sisters, because ye are of God, then ye are not a part of this world, or He that is in you is greater than he that is in the world?I don't quite understand this. |
Bible Answer: Matthew101 This world is tainted with sin. God has another world for us, this world is going to burn up and we as believers are going to live in the New Heaven and New Earth one not tainted with sin. The point is how whether we are minority or majority the point is where to we look for our hope. Is it making this world better or going to the place God has made for us. EdB |
