Matthew 6:1-34 33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. Mt 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God. The promise is made that if we seek it first, and its righteousness, all earthly wants will be supplied. The condition demands, (1) That we seek the kingdom "first" in point of time. Some propose to secure a competence, and after they have gained it, they will serve God. Matthew 6:1-34 Question: "What does it mean to seek first the kingdom of God?" https://www.gotquestions.org/seek-first-kingdom-God.html Love always, Walter Edited October 6, 2019 by Walter and Deborah More info. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holiness points to how you are, and righteousness points to where you are. Holy is more of what you make yourself; righteous is what God makes you. Ephesians 4:24 24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Love always, Walter and Deborah Edited October 8, 2019 by Walter and Deborah More info.
