Luke 17:21

19 ^aAnd He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”

The Coming of the Kingdom

20 Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said, “The kingdom of God does not come with observation;

21 ^anor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, ^bthe kingdom of God is within you.”

22 Then He said to the disciples, ^a“The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

23 ^aAnd they will say to you, ‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Luke 17:20

Luke 17:22 >>

Neither shall they say, Lo here, or lo there - This shall not be the language of those who are, or shall be sent by me, to declare the coming of my kingdom. For behold the kingdom of God is within or among you - Look not for it in distant times or remote places: it is now in the midst of you: it is come: it is present in the soul of every true believer: it is a spiritual kingdom, an internal principle. Wherever it exists, it exists in the heart.
