How do we know the kingdom of God is not in word but in power?

Answered in 1 source

The kingdom of God is established in the heart and is confirmed by the transformative power of God, not just by what is spoken.

In 1 Corinthians 4:20, Paul asserts that the kingdom of God is not simply a matter of eloquent speech but is demonstrated through the reality of God's power at work. This means that true signs of the kingdom are not seen in mere words or declarations but in the transformative influence that God has in the lives of believers. As the gospel takes root in the hearts of individuals, it brings about genuine change and faith, showcasing the power of God to save and sanctify. This emphasizes that the essence of God's reign is internal and real, profoundly affecting believers' lives.
