"There is something important we need to understand about the kingdom of God: just as righteousness has no partnership with lawlessness, just as light has nothing in common with darkness and Christ has no agreement with Belial, so the kingdom of God and the kingdom of sin cannot co-exist. So if we want God to reign within us . . . let us be made fruitful by the Spirit. Then we will be a spiritual garden of Eden for God to walk in . . . Let us pray to our Father in heaven: hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come" (Origen, from A discourse on prayer).
