Our Father, Which art in Heaven..... Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven

There are two kingdoms - God's kingdom of light and goodness, and Satan's opposing kingdom of darkness and evil. These two kingdoms intersect in the lives of human beings. When someone becomes saved through faith in Christ, the Holy Spirit comes to dwell within them. Empowered by the Spirit, Christians are called to promote justice, help those in need, and spread the gospel message about Jesus' redemptive love. This happens through building loving relationships with neighbors and showing Christ's love in practical ways. The goal is to be an imager of God, imitating Jesus' pattern of compassionate service to others. In this way, God's kingdom advances where the two kingdoms intersect, as more people come to know Christ through the good works and words of Spirit-led believers who seek to walk in Jesus' footsteps.

Please give 6 Bible passage showing where God's kingdom intersects with the world.

Here are 6 Bible passages that relate to the concept of God's kingdom advancing where it intersects with the world:

  1. Matthew 28:18-20 - The Great Commission passage, where Jesus sends his followers into the world to make disciples, baptize them, and teach them to obey Christ's commands. This shows the extension of God's kingdom into the world.

  2. Matthew 5:13-16 - Jesus tells his disciples they are the salt of the earth and light of the world. He exhorts them to let their light shine so people see their good works and glorify God. This demonstrates kingdom impact through good works.

  3. Acts 1:8 - Jesus promises power from the Holy Spirit to empower witnesses, so the Gospel spreads from disciples in Jerusalem outwards to the ends of the earth. This mirrors kingdom expansion.

  4. Luke 10:25-37 - The Good Samaritan parable teaches that loving one's neighbor should transcend ethnic/religious barriers. This principle guides kingdom relationships.

  5. James 1:27 - Caring for widows and orphans in distress embodies the kingdom ethic of compassion for the needy and marginalized.

  6. Philippians 2:14-16 - Shining as lights in the world by living blameless lives fills out a vision of kingdom influence wherein disciples' Christlike lives point others to God.

Please give 3 bible passages that demonstrate what Christians do in this interaction.

Here are 3 Bible passages about what Christians are called to do as they interact with the world:

  1. 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 - Become all things to all people to save some; adapt without compromising core truth

  2. James 1:27 - Demonstrate pure religion by caring for widows/orphans and keeping unstained by the world

  3. 1 Peter 3:15-16 - Always be prepared to give reason for the hope within you through gentle/respectful speech

In summary, as Christians interact with others in an increasingly secular world, they are to let their speech and conduct shine as lights pointing to Christ, share the gospel, serve the needy, find common ground without compromising core beliefs, and offer reasonable explanations for their worldview if asked, with gentleness and respect. The Holy Spirit empowers believers to fulfill this kingdom mission.
