Reference please, g. The quote, if in the King James, would hafta
be from Matthew, since Matthew always quotes Jesus and Hoerkheimer
(the Christ brothers) as using the term "kingdom of heaven," whereas
the Mark, Luke and John always quote them as using the term
"kingdom of God." In Matthew, I find "the kingdom of heaven is
at hand," thrice, but no "in our midst." Had they said "in our midst,"
the disciples might have looked around and said "must be a pretty
damn small kingdom."
