Principles of Citizenship
Here are some of the principles of being a citizen of the Kingdom of God:
1. Citizenship is the most sacred privilege of a nation.
2. Citizenship is the most precious gift that any nation can give.
3. Like any other country, the Kingdom of God has the principle of citizenship.
4. Every Kingdom citizen today is a naturalized citizen.
5. The new birth makes us a naturalized citizen of the Kingdom.
6. Kingdom citizens refrain from terms religious terms like "being saved" or "be blessed".
7. Not only does the new birth make us citizens of heaven, but our citizenship begins immediately. We are Kingdom citizens right now. Our citizenship is a present day reality.
8. Religion postpones citizenship to the future.
9. You can never appropriate what you postpone.
10. All Kingdom citizens carry dual citizenship.
11. The Kingdom of the Lord God is not identifiable by the human eye.
12. All Kingdom citizens are not identifiable by the human eye as well.
13. Our culture should reflect and reveal our citizenship as being here but not from here, being in the world, but not of this world.
If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Unless you have been born again with the new birth, it is impossible for you to even see the Kingdom. Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
John 15:19 John 3:3
