How do we know the kingdom of God is established now?

Answered in 1 source

The kingdom of God was established with the coming of Christ and is experienced through the faith of believers.

Jesus asserted in Mark 9:1 that some of His disciples would not taste death before they saw the kingdom of God come with power. This proclamation emphasizes that the kingdom of God operates spiritually and has already been established through Christ's ministry and His resurrection. The true kingdom of God is not a future, earthly reign but a present reign where Christ rules in the hearts of believers. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost further affirmed this establishment, empowering the church to spread the gospel. Romans 9-11 clarifies that the gospel is now available not just to the Jews but to all nations, indicating the expansive nature of God's kingdom.
