The Apostles wanted Jesus to restore the Kingdom. He said now, it is not of this world. The kingdom we should work towards is not of this world. Almost counterintuitivly if we work towards the Kingdom of God through making disciples of all people, like we are commanded, the world becomes a better place. If we try to take over by way of politics we will lose. Amen - the trick is in staying focused on the Spirit vs. the physical. I feel like Paul when he lamented about doing that which he would not do, and not doing that which he would do - my best efforts suck.
