2816 In the New Testament the same word can mean Basileia royalty (abstract noun) kingdom (real name) or rule (action name). The Kingdom of God is before us. He approached the Incarnate Word, it was announced throughout the Gospel, he came in the death and Resurrection of Christ. The Kingdom of God comes from the Lord's Supper and the Eucharist, it is in our midst. The Kingdom will come in glory when Christ hands it over to his Father:
It may even be that the kingdom of God means Christ himself, we call him our best wishes every day and we want to hasten the advent with our expectations. As it is our resurrection, for in him we rise, and perhaps the kingdom of God, for in him we shall reign (St. Cyprian, Fr. Orat. 13: PL 4, 528A-527C).
2817 This petition is "Marana tha," the cry of the Spirit and the Bride: "Come Lord Jesus "
Even though this prayer we would not have a duty to seek the coming of the kingdom, we would ourselves cry out in us eager to embrace our expectations. The souls of martyrs under the altar call on the Lord loudly: 'How long, Lord, dost thou not ask account of our blood to the inhabitants of the earth? (Rev 6, 10). They need to get justice at the end of time. Lord, hasten the arrival of so thy kingdom "(Tertullian, gold. 5).
In 2818 the Lord's Prayer, it is primarily the final coming of the Kingdom of God by the return of Christ (cf. Tit 2, 13). But this desire is not distracting the Church from her mission in this world, rather he is committing. Since Pentecost, the coming of the Reign is the work of the Spirit of the Lord "that pursues its work in the world and complete fullness of grace" (RM, Eucharistic Prayer IV).
2819 "The kingdom of God is justice, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Rom 14, 17). The last time when we are for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Therefore is engaged in a decisive battle between "the flesh and the Spirit (cf. Gal 5: 16-25):
Only a pure heart can say with Insurance: "Thy kingdom come. It must have been at the school of Paul to say: 'Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal bodies (Rom 6, 12). He who purified himself in his actions, his thoughts and words, can say to God: "Thy kingdom come!" (St. Cyril of Jerusalem, Catech. Myst. 5, 13: PG 33, 1120A).
2820 By a discernment according to the Spirit, Christians must distinguish between the growth of the Kingdom of God and advancement of culture and society in which they are incurred. This distinction is not separation. The vocation of man to eternal life does not suppress but enhances its duty to apply the energies and means received from the Creator to serve justice in this world and peace (cf. GS 22, 32, 39, 45, EN 31).
2821 This application is brought in and answered the prayer of Jesus (cf. Jn 17, 17-20), present and effective in the Eucharist, it bears its fruit in the new life of the Beatitudes (cf. Mt 5, 13 -16, 6, 24, 7, 12-13).
