	Kingdom Theology by Al Dager
		These kingdoms are defined as all social institutions, such as the "kingdom" of education, the "kingdom" of science, the "kingdom" of the arts, and so on.
		Those who hold to Kingdom Theology assume that the Church (some believe only a small group within the Church, called "overcomers"), under submission to the latter day apostles and prophets, is that man child, and that it has the responsibility to put down all rebellion and establish righteousness.
		The proponents of Kingdom Theology are correct when they say that the Church is spiritual Israel, but they fail to acknowledge that God has promised to restore national Israel and deal with her during the coming seventieth week of Daniel.

	Beyond Two- versus One-Kingdom Theology
		One-kingdom theology, by minimizing the importance of particular loyalties, tends to undermine the believing community's cohesiveness.
		Anabaptist-Mennonite two-kingdom theology, however, insisted that the fruit of the gospel must be visible in the community of disciples.
		Admittedly, the term "one-kingdom theology" is not one that any theologian of whom I am aware applies to his or her own work.

		Rottenberg's deep roots in Calvinist Federalist theology and his wide experience in the ecumenical movement are conjoined to produce a book which should make an important contribution to the teaching task in the congregation.
		With careful attention to recent eschatological theology he traces the "kingdom of God" as the content, form, and context of the gospel.
		Every chapter adds to the overall theme that the gospel of the kingdom creates a history which is the Christian mission to and for the world.

	Anabaptist Theology
		The question which is foremost in the present endeavor of formulating this "implied" theology of the Anabaptists is whether or not Anabaptists accepted by and large the theology of the Protestant Reformers (Luther or Zwingli, hardly Calvin), adding in addition only those aspects otherwise neglected.
		The Anabaptist, however, is prepared to accept it, what was aptly called the "theology of martyrdom," meaning the expectation of the cross for the disciple -- "cross," not as a marital event, but as a sign of one's own stand, challenging the world which will always contradict the path of Christ and his disciples.
		The idea of a suffering church is not really a "theology" in the strict sense of the word, just as the idea of "discipleship" is not theology proper (though part of it).

	Kingdom Theology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Necessary to the Kingdom Age is "the Restoration of the Tabernacle of David," defined as the completion of perfection of the Bride of Christ - a Church without spot or wrinkle.
		Essentially then, Kingdom Theology sees the Second Coming of Jesus in two stages: first through the flesh of the believers (and in particular the flesh of today's apostles and prophets), and then in person to take over the Kingdom handed to Him by those who have been victorious (the "overcomers").
		It becomes apparent through study that Kingdom Theology had its beginning in the teachings of the more prominent leaders of the mid-twentieth-century phenomenon known as "The Latter Rain Movement." These teachers blended Pentecostal fervor with supernatural manifestations which, when examined, are found to have been heavily influenced by occult activity.

	CRI Journal - CRJ0022A
		Kingdom theology is not a new theology, interpretation of Scripture nor new revelation.
		What makes it so in the case of Kingdom Theology is its combination with the Manifest Sons of God doctrine, according to which the church is the ongoing incarnation of God and believers are "little gods" exercising autonomous sovereignty within their spheres of dominion.
		Distinguishing between the gospels of the kingdom and of salvation is not in and of itself heretical.

	Kingdom #2
		The term kingdom means "a rule or reign, an exercise of authority." When applied to the reign of God in the world, the term means "the rule or sovereignty of creator God." C. Beasley-Murray thus equates the terms kingdom and sovereignty throughout his detailed text on the kingdom of God (1986, 74).
		George Ladd defines kingdom in the following way: "The primary meaning of both the Hebrew word malkuth in the Old Testament and of the Greek word basileia in the New Testament is the rank, authority and sovereignty exercised by a king....A kingdom is the authority to rule, the sovereignty of the king" (1959, 19).
		Although the coming kingdom could not fulfill earthly Jewish expectations because Christ's kingdom was not "of this world" (John 18:36), messianic anticipations served to draw thousands to hear John the Baptist and Jesus proclaim the imminence of the kingdom.

		It does make me wonder how new or "emergent" it actually all is though, because these ideas, the theology of the kingdom of God, has existed in various forms throughout the history of the church (though often not sanctioned by the "official" church).
		I totally agree that "the Kingdom" (in all of its meanings, most of which we probably don't comprehend yet) is central to the Gospel message.
		Theology around the cross and Kingdom theology both play valid but different roles in my life.

	Kingdom Theology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Inherent to all Kingdom Now Theology is the idea of "Restoration." The premise of Restoration is that since the first century, the Church has not functioned as God planned, and must therefore be "restored" to its original purpose of achieving dominion.
		But what Restoration and Dominion Theology in general seek is not so much unity of the faith as uniformity of the dictates of self-proclaimed apostles and prophets.
		Were we to analyze each movement germane to Kingdom Now Theology we would find strong elements of such fear and guilt at the core of their structures.

	Touchstone Magazine - Mere Comments: Moore Describes the Kingdom
		The failure is that of contemporary evangelical theology to engage politics.
		The chapters deal with evangelical theology and evangelical engagement, the Kingdom as ‘already and not yet,’ salvation as holistic and Christological, and the church as a kingdom community.
		A Kingdom theology, Moore says, must inform the social and political engagement of Christians as well as their view of the world’s future.

	Direction: Thirsty for the Reign: A Kingdom Theology for Youth Ministry, Part One
		As we pray, “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” we participate in the reality of his rule, his kingdom now; we do this even though God’s reign is to be completed and fulfilled with the return of Christ.
		God’s kingdom is not one of individualism, consumerism, power, bondage to sin, violence, and alienation, but one of healing, compassion, justice, equity, peace, and service.
		But being the kingdom in the world means that she must also be a kingdom presence.

	Dominion Theology, by Gary Gilley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It is known by different handles such as reconstructionism, kingdom theology, theonomy, and dominion theology, and it is a curious blend of Reformed/Calvinist theology and Charismatic influence.
		However DT goes beyond traditional covenant theology and teaches that the church is to be governed by the same laws, is subject to the same curses, and is promised the same blessings as Israel.
		We are in the Kingdom, and have Kingdom authority, but on the other hand, we are ushering in the Kingdom through our efforts.

	Al Dager 3
		This segment of our treatise on "Kingdom Now" or "Dominion" Theology has been the most difficult to complete, both in terms of assimilating the contents and in presenting them in a manner that would not be inflammatory or denigrating to any individual's character.
		The reader should keep in mind that Dominion Theology is not an easily delineated segment within the Church, but rather a loose networking of autonomous sub-movements that have different approaches to their attempts at establishing the Kingdom of God.
		It is an essential ingredient of Dominion Theology, therefore, that these overcomers, through their perfect (sinless) living, attain immortalization and become impervious to injury and death.

		Of both, the theology of Memphis is intellectually superior and nearest to a naturalistic approach, eliminating the "first time" of myth and the flagrant conflicts of pre-rationality.

		In the Old Kingdom, the high priest of Ptah was called "wer kherep hemut" or "supreme leader of craftsmanship", indicating that Ptah, "he with the beautiful face", was the god of skills, design, sculpture and the making or creating of something in general (also the art of well formed speech).

		"Pat Robertson was so concerned that his evangelist peers might think that he had switched to Chilton's version of postmillennialism that he wrote a personal letter to many of them (including one to me) in the summer of 1986 that stated that he had not adopted Chilton's theology.
