The Reign of God

“The reign of God is a twofold experience of free self-withdrawal: the self-withdrawal of others in our favor and our self-withdrawal in favor of others. Only when we see God's reign in this way can we understand why becoming like children is paradigmatic for entry into the reign of God.”
