Kingdom of God上帝之國英文版
亦稱“天國”(Kingdom of Heaven)
基督教用語,上帝以王者身分統(tǒng)治或最后實(shí)現(xiàn)上帝對世界之意志的神靈國度。上帝之國一詞常用于《新約》,也是施洗者圣約翰與耶穌布道過程的中心主題。對于耶穌意指王國隨祂而來或被預(yù)期為未來事件,神學(xué)家們持不同意見。如今,基督教正統(tǒng)派堅持:王國藉著世界上教會的出現(xiàn)而部分實(shí)現(xiàn),而最后審判之后將會完全實(shí)現(xiàn)。
In Christianity, the spiritual realm over which God reigns as king, or the eventual fulfillment of God's will on earth. The term is often used in the New Testament, and it was a central theme in the preaching of John the Baptist and Jesus. Theologians differ as to whether Jesus implied that the kingdom had arrived in his person or whether it was expected as a future event. Christian orthodoxy now holds that the kingdom has been partially realized by the presence of the church in the world, and that it will be fully realized after the Last Judgment
