I said: Show me where 'there will be a kingdom of God brought by Jesus is in the Bible.'we could start with
Daniel 2:44
“In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever,"
a kingdom is a form of government .a government that Jesus often would speak of .
Daniel 2:44 says: “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people."
The verse says that God will set up a kingdom.
The verse does not say that Jesus will set up a kingdom.
Then we have to ask ourselves HOW God will set up a kingdom.
Certainly God will not come to earth and set it up since the Bible says that no one can see the face of God and live.
I believe that God set up a kingdom by sending His Messenger, Baha'u'llah, who revealed all that will be necessary for humans to build the kingdom of God on earth.
Matthew 6Matthew 6:10
Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth." he was showing to his apostles how to pray .if not real why would he even mention it ?? it will happen even as Daniel 2:44 promised it will happen.
9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Thy is not referring to Jesus, it is referring to God the Father, so Jesus was asking us to pray for God's kingdom to come to earth.
It is already happening even as Daniel 2:44 promised it will happen. The kingdom of God/New World order is coming to earth.
“Beseech ye the one true God to grant that all men may be graciously assisted to fulfil that which is acceptable in Our sight. Soon will the present-day order be rolled up, and a new one spread out in its stead. Verily, thy Lord speaketh the truth, and is the Knower of things unseen.”

“The world’s equilibrium hath been upset through the vibrating influence of this most great, this new World Order. Mankind’s ordered life hath been revolutionized through the agency of this unique, this wondrous System—the like of which mortal eyes have never witnessed.”
