Fragment

"The distinction between the terms 'Kingdom of Heaven' and 'of God,' I apprehend is in this, that 'earth' is the natural antithesis to 'heaven,' as man is to 'God.' Hence the Kingdom of Heaven always relates to the whole scene, and is more strictly dispensational; whereas the Kingdom of God over man may be individual, and gives more the moral character. Thus you find the Kingdom of God is not ' meat and drink,' etc. Kingdom of Heaven could not be used here.-Helps, 1874.
