178:1.4 [[Sonship]] in [[the kingdom]], from the [[standpoint]] of advancing [[civilization]], should [[assist]] you in becoming the [[ideal]] [[citizens]] of the [[Nations|kingdoms]] of this world since [[brotherhood]] and [[service]] are the [[cornerstones]] of the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]]. The [[love]] call of the [[spiritual]] kingdom should [[prove]] to be the [[effective]] destroyer of the [[hate]] urge of the unbelieving and [[war]]-minded [[citizens]] of the [[earthly]] [[Nations|kingdoms]]. But these [[material]]-[[mind]]ed sons in [[darkness]] will never know of your [[spiritual]] [[light]] of [[truth]] unless you draw very near them with that [[unselfish]] [[social]] [[service]] which is the [[natural]] outgrowth of the bearing of the [[fruits of the spirit]] in the life [[experience]] of each [[individual]] [[believer]].

178:1.5 As [[mortal]] and [[material]] men, you are indeed [[citizens]] of the [[earthly]] [[Nations|kingdoms]], and you should be [[good]] [[citizens]], all the better for having become [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_40#40:6._THE_FAITH_SONS_OF_GOD reborn spirit sons] of [the Kingdom|the heavenly kingdom]]. As [[faith]]-[[enlightened]] and [[spirit]]-[[liberated]] sons of [[the kingdom]] of heaven, you face a double [[responsibility]] of [[duty]] to [[man]] and [[duty]] to [[God]] while you [[voluntarily]] [[assume]] a third and [[sacred]] [[obligation]]: [[service]] to the [[brotherhood]] of [[God]]-knowing [[believers]].

178:1.6 You may not [[worship]] your [[temporal]] [[Leaders|rulers]], and you should not employ [[temporal]] [[power]] in the furtherance of [[the Kingdom|the spiritual kingdom]]; but you should [[manifest]] the [[righteous]] ministry of [[loving]] [[service]] to [[believers]] and unbelievers alike. In the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]] there resides the mighty [[Spirit of Truth]], and presently I will pour out this same [[spirit]] upon all [[Human|flesh]]. The [[fruits of the spirit]], your [[sincere]] and loving [[service]], are the mighty [[social]] [[lever]] to uplift the [[races]] of [[darkness]], and this [[Spirit of Truth]] will become your [[power]]-multiplying [[fulcrum]].
