"Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
- Matthew 6:10 (NRSV)
What could this mean?
Dostoevsky had a dream in which God took him to another planet on which everyone helped each other and everyone was cared for and happy.
When he asked how this could be God answered him by saying that all they did was love their neighbors as themselves*.
So all we need to do to create the Kingdom of God on Earth is to love our neighbors as ourselves!
(*Matthew 22:39)
