Summary: The phrase, "Not of this world" is perhaps best known for a clothing company. However, these are words spoken by Jesus about His kingdom. I think they sound pretty cool. Like something from a sci-fi movie. In truth, these words carry more practical implications than anything found in Star Wars. You see, Jesus is telling us that in the midst of the cracked, brokenness, and fractures of this planet, our ultimate home is with God. Meanwhile we wait and we hope and we do God's work of bringing a taste of His kingdom to earth. We are not alone in this. Jesus is our light in the darkness and our shade from the heat. There are people around you asking, “Is this all there is?” You say, "No, we were built for something different, for something greater. Outside the confines of this earth there is permanent love, laughter, a kingdom full of life and beauty and nobility. Join us by following Jesus there!"
