Let's go to Matthew chapter 13 which contains some of the key kingdom parables that Jesus taught. Let me reiterate "Jesus was living and demonstrating the Kingdom in the way He lived his life. He used the parables to explain why he did what he did" one of the key ways to understand the Kingdom is to study the principles Jesus taught through these parables.
