They crept up to him, and boldly asked him where the Kingdom of Heaven was, of which the Master so often spoke.
Was it under the earth or above the sun? Would it begin soon or in a thousand years? John said; "How long have you been with Him ?" "Seven weeks." "And you don't know yet where the Kingdom of Heaven is? Then you do not understand His language." "He speaks the language of our fathers." "He speaks the language of the Kingdom of God.
Remember, the Kingdom of Heaven is where God is.
God is where Love is, where trustful, self-sacrificing, glad Love is." "And where is that ?" "Where do you think ?" "I think Love must be in the heart." Whereupon John answered: "Then you do know where the Kingdom of Heaven is." The two looked at each other, but did not quite seem to know.
Then John went to Jesus, who was sitting on a rock and looking out into the darkness as if it was full of visions.
