Only to those that are spiritually a part of his kingdom.

Our physical bodies cannot live in the Kingdom. As Paul explained, we must be changed, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last trump, our corrupt bodies must become incorruptible bodies. That is the “born again” to which Yeshua referred in his conversation with Nicodemus, a high priest, who was well aware of what the scriptures said on the matter. It was a technical message, as opposed to the spirititual message that Peter was delivering.

To one that reads his Bible for understanding, there is massive scriptural proof, but to those that do not understand what they are reading, no proof is possible.

All of those who have been saved are part of His kingdom.

Once again, a supposition that cannot be substantiated by scripture.
