Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, the coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed — the kingdom's coming cannot be observed (meta paratērēseōs, with careful observation, the same word as the hostile watching of the Pharisees). The kingdom is not the kind of event that can be tracked by watching for the right signs.
