Jesus tells us that the kingdom of God that comes to us through faith in Him—the kingdom of God for those who are saved—is within us. Just as a Korean person is Korean and a Japanese person is Japanese, whether someone belongs to the kingdom of God is just as clear.
"His Day" that Jesus repeatedly mentions refers to the day He dies, resurrects, ascends, and will return. The "Day of the Lord" foretold by the prophets of the Old Testament is ultimately His Day. From the time of Jesus’ first coming, the kingdom of God has come, but on His Day, the invisible kingdom of God will become visible.
Just as no one can predict when lightning will strike, His Day will come suddenly and instantly. His Day is both the day of the rapture, and the day Jesus will descend to earth with the heavenly hosts and angels.
