NOTES for Rom 14:17
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. |

The dream of an ideal society, where everything will be good, just, and abundant, is unconquerable in humanity. Only for some reason it does not work out. Perhaps the matter is that each of us thinks that society is bad, while I myself am good. Speaking about the Kingdom of God, Christ always emphasizes the spiritual character of this Kingdom, its realization within a person and not in "society". The apostle Paul writes about the same thing: our belonging to Christ is determined not by external and bodily categories, but by the action of the Holy Spirit in us.
