Mt 3:2 change wording re kingdom
Mt 3:2 change wording re kingdom from, "God will soon show that he is king" to what you see. This and other instances are changed to reflect Matthew's important distinction of using "heaven" rather than "of God" because the rule includes Jesus triumphant. This also is more than "showing" that he is king, but rather that he IS king and actively exercising his rule.

\v 2 "You must stop sinning, because God will soon show that he is king, and he will reject you if you do not stop sinning."

\v 3 When John began preaching, then came true what Isaiah the prophet had said long ago. He said,
|

\pi "In the wilderness people hear someone shouting to anyone who comes,
|
||||
\pi 'Get ready to receive the Lord when he comes!
