We often hear about the kingdom of God, but what exactly is it? Blessed Theophylact answers:
When a man’s disposition and way of life are like that of an angel, most assuredly this is the kingdom of God.

This manner of life we have within us, that is to say, we have it within us when we desire and will it. We do not need to wait a long time, or until our departure from this life; instead, faith and a God-pleasing life which accompanies faith are very near us.
