ABSTRACT
The term “kingdom” is used sparingly by Paul, but there are important truths concerning the kingdom in his letters. For Paul, Jesus is the center of God’s kingdom plan and one must believe in Him to inherit the kingdom. As for its nature, the kingdom of Jesus the Messiah is future and earthly from Paul’s standpoint in history, yet there are kingdom truths that apply to Christians in this age before Jesus returns and the kingdom is established. Paul also explains the necessity of a kingdom reign of Jesus, the Last Adam, before the eternal state commences.
