Kingdom Now is a theology that some hold that supposedly gives Christians a mandate and instruction to fix Babylon before Christ returns.
This is false.
Th reason it is false is that neither Jesus, nor Paul not any of the Apostles tried to gain power within to over Babylon in the Bible. Once Christ returns it will be very much like a military occupation, Jesus followers will be glorified and thus not make more mistakes and can therefore be trusted with real power over others. Until then our mandate is to rule over ourselves, to love and serve others and preach the gospel.
Kingdom Now theology is a branch of Dominion Theology which has had a following within Pentecostalism. It attracted attention in the late 1980s.[24][25]
Kingdom Now theology states that although Satan has been in control of the world since the Fall, God is looking for people who will help him take back dominion. Those who yield themselves to the authority of God's apostles and prophets will take control of the kingdoms of this world, being defined as all social institutions, the "kingdom" of education, the "kingdom" of science, the "kingdom" of the arts, etc.[26] C. Peter Wagner, the founder of the New Apostolic Reformation, writes: "The practical theology that best builds a foundation under social transformation is dominion theology, sometimes called 'Kingdom Now'. Its history can be traced back through R. J. Rushdoony and Abraham Kuyper to John Calvin."[27]
Kingdom Now theology is influenced by the Latter Rain movement,[28] and critics have connected it to the New Apostolic Reformation,[29] "Spiritual Warfare Christianity,"[28] and Fivefold ministry thinking.[30]
Kingdom Now theology should not be confused with Kingdom theology, which is related to inaugurated eschatology.
