The Way of the Kingdom Part 3: The Life and Teaching of Jesus of Nazareth

How does one make sense of the life and teaching of Jesus? He describes a kingdom that is perfect and which he rules as king. His kingdom is still coming, yet we begin to live as its citizens now. He asks us to live like him. But how is that possible? Jesus did miracles routinely. He said he actually was God. He often faced deadly peril with perfect calmness, and at times he was fully aware of what was in other people's minds. How can I live like that? It is this challenging, frustrating, marvelous, troubling, mind-blowing life and teaching of Jesus that we find in the gospel record, and that I have tried to make clear in these pages.
