When the people of ancient Israel demanded a king like the other nations, God assured the prophet Samuel that “they have not rejected you, they have rejected Me.” In spite of this, God promised that one day He would send them an entirely different kind of King, one who would come “lowly and riding on a donkey.” But He, too, would be rejected. The very nature of His power and authority would, throughout history, repeatedly serve as “a stumbling block to the Jews” and “foolishness to the Gentiles.” This meeting message offers a brief overview of the dynamics behind the formation and reformation of the church as an alternative kingdom—a kingdom governed not by earthly sword or scepter but by the same supernatural love that raised Jesus from the dead.
