The gospel is about Service

The blessed ones in the Kingdom of God are those who have seen a King who is not like the kings of this world. They are blessed because they know a King who brings real peace, who sees the needy, and who hears the cries of the suffering and the oppressed.

In God's kingdom, no one should be hungry, naked or alone. To bear witness to Christ as our Saviour and King, is to be a messenger of this Kingdom -- to serve others and thereby profess the invasion of God's glorious grace and mercy in our world.

We do this when we understand that being a follower of Christ does not mean to be served, but to be a servant!

- The gospel is about Service.
Therefore living in the Kingdom of God is about being a servant!
