Kingdom Texts in the New Testament (continued)

Matt. 10.7 (ESV) - And proclaim as you go, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matt. 11.11-12 (ESV) - Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. [12] From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. Matt. 12.25-26 (ESV) - Knowing their thoughts, he said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand. [26] And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?” Matt. 12.28 (ESV) - But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. Matt. 13.11 (ESV) - And he answered them, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.” Matt. 13.19 (ESV) - When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path. Matt. 13.24 (ESV) - He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.” Matt. 13.31 (ESV) - He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.” Matt. 13.33 (ESV) - He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, that a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.” Matt. 13.38 (ESV) - The field is the world, and the good seed is the children of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one. Matt. 13.41 (ESV) - The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers.
