The document discusses the kingdom of God/heaven that is described in both the Old and New Testaments. It notes that this kingdom is spiritual in nature, not of this world, and its citizens gain entrance through spiritual birth, not physical descent. The kingdom provides Christians with a sure, steadfast, and living hope that sustains them even for things unseen, in contrast to those without faith who have no hope and face only death. It encourages readers to choose this living hope by obeying the gospel and becoming citizens of God's unshakable kingdom.
