The Kingdom of God is a Party
If the Bible uses words like these, then our lives should exude that same biblical vitality. After all, Jesus "partied" with sinners; not in a boisterous unruly manner, but in the spirit of the Old Testament Jubilee in which people acquired a new lease on life. What was important then, and remains so now, is the celebratory attitude that should set Christians apart from the rest of the world.
