Summary: "The Kingdom of Heaven; What is it?" by Edward Burbidge is a theological treatise written in the late 19th century. The book explores the concept of the Kingdom of Heaven as articulated in the Gospels, aiming to deepen understanding of Christ’s teachings and the significance of the Church. It seeks to clarify its meaning and implications for believers, as well as the relationship between the Kingdom of Heaven and Christian life. The opening of the text introduces the author's intention to address two fundamental questions: what Jesus taught about His Church and the meaning of the phrase "the Holy Catholic Church; the Communion of Saints." Burbidge references scripture to establish a connection between John the Baptist's proclamation of the Kingdom and the ongoing presence of Christ's spiritual reign on Earth. He emphasizes that "The Kingdom of Heaven," while often associated with the afterlife, also pertains to the present state of the faithful and their responsibilities as Christians. There’s a clear call for believers to understand their role within this Kingdom, showcasing the urgency for active participation in their faith life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
