Dr. Myles Munroe, the Kingdom of God is not a religion, but rather the governing influence of a King over his territory, impacting it with his will, purpose, and intent. Munroe taught that Jesus Christ did not come to start a religion, but to reintroduce the kingdom of heaven to Earth, which had been lost in the fall of Adam.
Key Aspects of the Kingdom (Myles Munroe Perspective)
- A Sovereign King: God is the King, whose authority is final and cannot be voted out.
- A Colony: Earth is intended to be a colony of Heaven, where heavenly culture and values are lived out.
- A Lifestyle: The kingdom is a culture, not just a set of rules.
- A Government: It is the administration of God’s rule, bringing peace, righteousness, and order.
Matthew 24:14 – The Kingdom Mandate
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” (NKJV)
Dr. Munroe emphasized that this verse is a prophecy and a mandate.
- The Gospel of the Kingdom: This is not just a gospel of “going to heaven” or salvation, but a message that the King has returned to restore his rule on earth.
- A Witness to All Nations: The message is about establishing God’s culture—a heavenly, royal, and prosperous lifestyle—globally.
- The End Will Come: The end of this age (not the physical earth) depends on the proclamation of this specific kingdom message.

10 Examples/Characteristics of the Kingdom of God
According to the teachings of Dr. Myles Munroe:
- Colonizing Earth with Heaven: The practice of establishing heaven’s culture (love, peace, joy) in the chaos of earth.
- Kingdom Citizenship: Not just being a church member, but a legal resident of heaven with rights,, privileges, and access to the King’s resources.
- Ambassadorial Representation: Believers acting as ambassadors, representing the King (Jesus) and his policies on earth.
- The Constitution (The Bible): The laws and documents governing the citizen’s behavior and rights.
- Operating in Dominion: Utilizing the authority given by God to manage and rule over earthly circumstances, rather than being ruled by them.
- “Thy Kingdom Come”: A prayer and lifestyle that prioritizes God’s will over personal, selfish desires.
- Righteousness as a Lifestyle: Right alignment with the government of God (not just moralistic behavior), resulting in a life of integrity.
- The Commonwealth System: The common wealth (resources) of the King is accessible to all citizens to ensure no lack.
- Love as Culture: Forgiving enemies and loving neighbors is natural, not forced, because it is the nature of the Kingdom.
- The King’s Protection (The Army): Angels, as the army of the kingdom, are mobilized to protect and serve the citizens of the King.
