Bible Question: Where in the Bible does it say "the kingdom of heaven is within you?" |
Bible Answer: Hello Kathy, Welcome to the Forum :) Your thinking of Luke 17:21. I would encourage you to read the verse in context with the surrounding verses in order that you don't misunderstand the saying as it is most often misunderstood and quoted out of context to mean something that it does not mean. A clue is to pay careful attention to WHO Jesus was speaking to when he made the statement. Some translations translate it differently than the KJV does and probably more accurately. For example, the ESV does not say "the kindgom of heaven is within you" but translates entos humon as "in the midst of you". Who did Jesus make the statement to and what do you believe He meant by it? God bless, Jeff |
