If Christians were to follow Jesus' teachings they would not go to work, they would not have insurance, savings accounts, or planning for retirement. Instead, they would be devoted to waiting for the coming of God’s kingdom which would be more important to them than their own physical needs, family, and personal future on this earth.
Hard to argue. I'm not there yet but with God all things become possible.
Although it's not really "waiting for God's kingdom" God's kingdom becomes reality in the believer's life (as Jesus stated - kingdom is within you) in the here and now.
