But that is not what he said. He spoke of the Kingdom, being there, of Heaven being there. I see no interpretation that mentions the King being among them. The question of the Pharisee and his answer did not reference he, or a king, but asked when the Kingdom of G!d would come...and Jesus indicated it was there.

You then indicated that was while Jesus walked the earth.

He also said he was in this world but not of it, as are we. We are all spiritual beings in G!ds image, taking up temporary residence in these bodies on this planet.

yes Jesus was in the world but he was not a part of its bad ways ,the same way that his followers would not be part of its worldly ways , they live in the world but they are no part of it .

“They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.”—JOHN 17:16.

Jesus, Speaking of his followers, he said to his father ,I have given your word to them, but the world has hated them, because they are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world. I request you, not to take them out of the world, but to watch over them because of the wicked one. They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.”—John 17:14-16. sticking to Gods ways makes the world in general hate followers of CHRIST thats because the world goes along in its own ways, but followers of Christ are taught by Jehovah.

Wil said ..... And heaven is among us?

the bible says the following

As regards the heavens, to Jehovah the heavens belong,
But the earth he has given to the sons of men.psalm 115 ; 16

(Psalm 11:4) Jehovah is in his holy temple. Jehovah—in the heavens is his throne. His own eyes behold, his own beaming eyes examine the sons of men.

If there was one thing that I could accomplish in this life, it would be to eliminate pessimism and the less than worthy burdens that folks decide to carry.

for a christian having the mind of christ works wonders .

A characteristic that Jesus manifested was a pattern of thought and action that was always positive. He never allowed the negative attitude of others to influence his own fine attitude toward serving God; neither should we. When reproached and persecuted because of worshiping God faithfully, Jesus patiently endured without complaining. He knew that opposition from an unbelieving and uncomprehending world can be expected by those who try to please their neighbor “in what is good for his upbuilding.”

I've done it....

I've found my favourite quote.... I before this post would of said, yeah there are quite a few good ones.... But I have found one I really, really do like... My favourite is;

Mark 12:41-44.

And he sat down with the treasury chests in view and began observing how the crowd was dropping money into the treasury chests; and many rich people were dropping in many coins. Now a poor widow came and dropped in two small coins, which have very little value. So he called his disciples to him and said to them: “Truly I say to YOU that this poor widow dropped in more than all those dropping money into the treasury chests; for they all dropped in out of their surplus, but she, out of her want, dropped in all of what she had, her whole living.”

Matthew.... 7:7-8....

Ask and it will be given you, seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives, he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks, the door will be opened...

Then, with Micah's idols and his priest, the men of Dan came to the town of Laish, whose people were peaceful and secure. They attacked and killed all the people and burned the town to the ground. There was no one to rescue the residents of the town, for they lived a great distance from Sidon and had no allies nearby. This happened in the valley near Beth-rehob.Then the people of the tribe of Dan rebuilt the town and lived there. They renamed the town Dan after their ancestor, Israel's son, but it had originally been called Laish. (Judges 18:27-29 NLT)

I do love a little senseless killing of innocent, peaceful people in the Lords name.
