I have no idea what she meant by that, but ask yourself why Jesus uttered these words:
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:17-20 KJV
Considering the Bible in its entirety, I think it is fair to say that most people have no idea what "the Kingdom of G-d" will really be like. Considering what the scribes and Pharisees seem to have believed, I also think it would be difficult for most to distinguish between the Judeo-Christian concept of "the Kingdom of G-d" and what we now call "a fundamentalist Islamic state". Many who pray "Thy kingdom come" really don't know what they're asking for.
