How can we ensure we are in the Kingdom of God?

Answered in 1 source

To be in the Kingdom of God, we must respond to God's love through faith in Christ and an active love for Him and others.

Being 'not far' from the Kingdom of God, as Jesus indicated, means that having an understanding of the commandments is not sufficient. True belonging requires a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, rooted in His love for us. We must recognize our need for a Savior and trust in His redemptive work on our behalf. This relationship should produce evidence in our lives—specifically, a growing love for God and for our neighbors, as commanded in scripture. Such fruit confirms our position as citizens of God's Kingdom and assures us of our salvation through Christ.
