See for more themes. | SECOND STEP TO JESUS Q2: Who does the sinner return home to? Mt 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
The kingdom of heaven is a Hebrew saying (idiom or poetry saying) for the
person of GOD. Notice how Luke translates the same ideas into Greek for people who were Greek:-
Mt 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: ( Matthew was originally written in Hebrew for Hebrew people)
Lu 13:18 Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it? 19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; ... ( Luke was originally written in Hebrew but later translated into Greek for a different culture)
While a home is also a house, returning home is more about returning to the
family of GOD, to persons. To repent is to return home to Jesus . Shalom
Lu 13:18 Ac 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
