” … For behold,
the kingdom of God,
is in the midst of you.”
Luke 17:21
” …[The Kingdom of God] … is within you.
That is, it depends on your own wills
and is in your own power,
whether or not you receive it.
Everyone, that has attained
to justification, by means of faith in Christ
and decorated by every virtue,
is counted worthy,
of the kingdom of heaven.”

Who knocks at your door every hour of the day,
Who begs you to listen to Him
and to keep silence in order to hear Him.”
