Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
The phrase "the kingdom of God" and its twin the "kingdom of heaven" is used 100 times in the New testament. Who's Kingdom is it anyways? And does the phrase always refer to a single thing? Or does it have more than one utility? We look at one application of the phrase, and humanity's response to it becoming a reality.

Hebrews 12:10,11 NKJV
For they (physical parents) indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them but He (God and Father) for our profit, that we might be partakers of His holiness.
Now no chastening (correction or discipline) seems to be joyful for the present but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
