The Heavenly Kingdom on Earth

Here is a short overview of the Kingdom of God:

The purpose of this “bare bones” explanation of the King and His Kingdom is that it is almost completely missing in this Laodicean era in which we live. The end-time church of God is suffering from a serious disconnect from the power of God and the message that Jesus and his Apostles, as well as the early church, have preached. It is not my purpose to explain why this serious disconnect in the “churches” exists, but rather, I would like to direct you to one of the commandments of Jesus, and that is to preach the Good News (Gospel) of the Kingdom of God (Matthew 10:7, 28: 18-20)!

When our Lord explained the end times to His disciples in Matthew 24, He made it clear that nations would rise against nations. There will be many disasters, such as famines, pestilence, and earthquakes. Verse 12-14 read like this:

“And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved. And this gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.”

These are actual end-time events. Jesus is not speaking in parables here. So, please allow me to be part of the ushering in the most important event that is to take place and declare the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.

Again, this is just an overview of the most “basic” outline. Sixty-six books have been written by men who have been guided by the Holy Spirit of God to write and to give us a clear understanding of that wonderful gospel and of the plan of God for all mankind!

To talk about the Kingdom of God, we must first understand who God the King is.

God is Spirit. John 4: 24: God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and in Truth.

Since God is Spirit, His Kingdom is spiritual. It is not physical like our earth and all that pertains to it. Therefore, the good news of the Kingdom of God must start with God.

We are told that God has revealed Himself through His creation. That means the whole universe, including the stars, sun, moon, and the smallest caterpillar and its cocoon.

Romans 1: 20 "For since the creation of the world, His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that THEY are without excuse."

Another way he revealed Himself is through His Word, the Holy Bible. God the Holy Spirit used some selected people and dictated the WORD to be recorded for all mankind so they could have a correct knowledge of the Great I AM and His plan for mankind. John 6:63 “It is the Spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are SPIRIT, and they are LIFE!”

Also, by sending His Son to this earth. That plan, which He designed before He laid the foundation of the world, also includes the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. In fact, the Main Theme of the story of the bible is about a unique people. A people that God would redeem onto Himself, who would not only become part of God’s spiritual and eternal family but also become the Bride of His beloved Son Jesus.

Therefore, the Gospel must start with God. Gen. 1: 1 etc.

God is a person who is self-existing. God always was. He has no beginning and no end. He is also omnipresent; He is all-knowing, all-powerful, and merciful! God is a Master Designer,a Father, a planner, a Maker, and a Creator. (Genesis 1 & 2, Psalm 139).

God is the GREAT KING and owns the whole universe. This is His Domain. He has an inherent right to everything that belongs to Him! That includes all that I am and all that I have. I am a steward entrusted with abilities, gifts, time, and material possessions. Of course, the same applies to you. Everything we have in this life is temporary. We will take nothing with us. Our soul, which is Spirit, belongs to God. Therefore, Adonai will reclaim every soul that He created! Revelations 6:9, the fifth seal.

It is interesting that God created a physical Earth since Himself is Spirit.

Before the earth's foundation, God had planned to have a family!

In other words, children of His own kind, who are like He is - Spirit Beings.

Think of it this way: When we are expecting a child, we start making plans for the newborn. We provide a place for the new child to get a changing table, clothes, diapers, a bed, etc. This will enable you to properly care for your new addition to the family.

God did the same. He first made a dwelling place for Adam and Eve and then placed them in it.

One important fact always needs to be kept in mind is that God gave Adam a Kingdom (king domain) to subdue, care for, manage, and be fruitful and multiply – to be a faithful steward over all that was entrusted to him by God the Creator.

Forming man out of the dust of the earth was the Crown Jewel of God’s creation!

God created man in his own image and likeness. By breathing into Adam's nose the breath of life (God’s Spirit), Adam was able to communicate with the Spirit of God and enjoy God’s fellowship. We also know that the Creator God gave mankind a Free Will. This allows men to choose.

The scripture calls Adam the son of God in Luke 3: 38. Since God is a King, Adam is by nature a born prince! However, since God provided for Adam his very own domain, namely the earth, Adam is a King! If God had kept Adam in heaven, he could never have become King because God, the KING OF GLORY, rules and reigns in that domain.

Allow me to throw one very important fact into the mix. Since Adam is a King and we are Adam’s offspring, we are born princes and princesses.

In Psalms 8: 5,6: God made him (Adam, Mankind, Men) a little lower than the angels and crowned him with Glory and Honor. “You have made him to have dominion over the works of your hand: you have put all things under his feet!”

In the book of Revelations 19: 16, John describes Christ riding on a white horse as a victorious King! And all the redeemed children of God following Him (verse 14).

And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:

KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS

In the past, I thought that this title was referring to Christ as King and Lord over all the kings and lords of the earth. While that is true, in this context, it refers to the ones who are following Him while Christ is leading!

And then there is the title Lord and Lords that keeps coming up. Here is the meaning and importance of this. A Lord is the owner of the property, like a landlord.

A king is not a King unless he has land. A kingdom requires a King to be Lord over his land and subjects. This applies to present-day earthly kingdoms because Kings rule over their “subjects” and land, and establish laws to govern their kingdom.

God’s Kingdom is different in that there are no subjects. All the “subjects” are Joint Heirs together with Christ and Children of the Most High God.

The Gospel of the Good News of the Kingdom of God is filled with good news for those who decide to become part of the family of God. To rule and reign together with Christ is only one part of it!

Even though the beginning with Adam and Eve did not end well, God absolutely did not deviate from his original plan. Once the King of Heaven decreed something, His word and His plan cannot be changed!

Adam rebelled against God and His authority. Here is what the Holy Spirit led the Apostle John to write: “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness!” (1 John 3:4).

In other words, Adam and Eve rebelled against the Law of God.

Since God cannot fellowship together or cohabitate with sin, Adam and Eve were cast out of the place where God dwelled together with them. Adam and Eve moved from the “house of God” to the “house of wickedness”, which is “run” by the Arc angel Lucifer also known as Satan the Devil.

Satan, who is one of three archangels, had succeeded in driving a wedge between God and mankind. Angels are created as beings to serve God and man. In the letter to the Hebrews chapter one, they are called ministering spirits to serve those who are the heirs of salvation. Since Satan had perverted the statutes and laws of God here on earth, he now established his own laws and statutes. He created a slave camp on earth, where mankind was doing his own will and that which pleased the Devil.

Let us take a moment to look at what Adam and Eve had lost by following the Devil’s advice.

Adam lost his Kingdom. He willfully relented his God-given authority as RULER over God’s creation, here on earth to the devil by rebelling against God’s Commandment.

Adam Lost the Holy Spirit of God. And thereby lost fellowship and Oneness with God. Adam chose to put more value in the advice of Satan than the command of God, who is the creator and sustainer of all that exists. This changed the mindset of mankind. At this point in time, Adam and Eve suffered from a disconnect from their Creator. It was God who gave Adam and Eve purpose in life, joy, peace, love, and harmony, including harmony with the creation. The fleshly desires and emotions are manifesting themselves as man is “hiding” from God, not knowing that he is lost and confused. The Creator God made man to be in Oneness with Him. The disconnect from the Spirit of God now causes Adam to function in the “spirit of the flesh”. Man is now relying on his five senses and the guidance of Satan, the NEW RULER of God’s colony kingdom, namely Earth. As of today, mankind still has not figured out what he lost and is trying to reconnect by inventing spiritual ideas and religions of all sorts. God did not give Adam a religion but rather a personal relationship with Himself and He gave Adam and Eve a Kingdom!

Satan bound Adam in the new dwelling place. Matt. 12: 29 states: “Or else how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.” At this point in time, there are now two opposing Kingdoms ruling the Earth Colony of the Eternal. There is Satan and his demons, and there is God‘s chosen people. Mankind without God has become subservient to the power of the evil one, Satan. Adam has lost the honor and glory that the Creator bestowed upon him. The crown of glory, being the King over God's creation and having authority over the animal world, was removed; do to his rebellion against Adonia. Every day, for the rest of his life, when waking up in the morning, Adam had to chose between good and evil; serving the Creator God or Lucifer the Devil.

Adam lost his life. Adam died and turned back to the dust of the ground after being 930 years old. This was not God’s intention, who wanted to make Adam part of His eternal family. Also, we are told in the written Word of God that because of the sin of Adam, the whole creation of God was placed into bondage and corruption (Romans 8: 21)! Corruption here means a gradual decaying of the former state of glory.

The good news is that God can see the end and the beginning at the same time. Now, as God Jehovah is pronouncing judgment on Lucifer in Genesis chapter three, He lets the Devil know that the Seed of the woman, that is mankind, will bruise his head, meaning that the Devil’s rulership over man will be defeated. Just as Satan removed Adam’s God-given authority from him, so also the second Adam, the Son of Man, Jesus, will recapture man’s authority over the satanic kingdom here in God’s Colony Kingdom.

In Habakkuk 3: 13, the Lord God reemphasizes his intention in a very precise manner! “You went forth for the salvation of your people, for salvation with your Anointed. You struck the head from the house of the wicked by laying bare from foundation to neck.”

God remembers His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God is known for His mercy and his great compassion for those who are hurting and oppressed. The Great I Am seeing the children of Israel oppressed by a tyrant called Pharaoh, the King of Egypt. God is sending a deliverer called Moses to confront Pharaoh to let the Hebrew people leave the bondage that they are in; by leaving Egypt.

You may be familiar with this story in the book of Exodus.

After having been delivered by God, God leads them into the wilderness of Sinai.

Exodus 19: 3-8 “And Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain, saying “Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:

‘You have seen what I did to the Egyptians and how I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself. Therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to me above all people, for all the earth is mine. And you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel. So, Moses came and called for the elders of the people and laid before them all these words which the Lord commanded him. Then all the people answered together and said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do.” So, Moses brought the words of the people back to the Lord.

God the Eternal is going to enter into a covenant with the children of Israel. He will make them a Kingdom that is very special. The wording here (holy nation) means set apart, a unique people representing The True and Living God to a world that worships idols because they do not know Jehovah.

This is new. God is reaching out to a lost world through a special people that he made His own. The Kingdom of God, which is in Heaven, is being extended through His representation by the children of Israel here on Earth. To better understand what God is doing, we must think of the physical earth as an extended colony of God’s Heavenly Kingdom. God instructs Moses to build God a dwelling place on Earth. It is to be patterned exactly after the Tabernacle, the Most Holy Place of God’s presence in Heaven. God desires to be present with His people. To fellowship with them, to communicate, to guide, and to care for them!

One could also call it the “Embassy” of the Heavenly King here on earth. Since God is bringing His Spiritual Kingdom to earth, His chosen people are Priests representing God’s Heavenly Kingdom as His “Ambassadors”. A covenant was signed by Moses and God; between two parties, and Moses was the mediator of the two parties. God signed the document with His own finger!

Please allow me to say a few words about the importance of this document as the Holy Spirit of God has revealed it to me.

There are two copies of the covenant written in stone. Because two parties agree to the words of this covenant, each copy contains the complete ten verses. NOT as the artist’s rendering shows six words on one tablet and the other four words on the second tablet. They are inscribed on one side and Adonai countersigned them on the other side.

A covenant with God is eternal; it cannot be nullified or altered in any way!

This is the MOST important document ever written that was signed by man in all of humanity’s history! It is so immensely important that it is kept (not in Fort Knox) but in the Arc of the Covenant under the Mercy Seat of God! NO ONE can touch it or even see it! In the book of Revelation, chapter eleven, verse nineteen, at the time of the end, the Temple of God will be opened, and the Arc of the Covenant will be seen. The inhabitants of the whole world will tremble before God at this time as lightning, noises, thundering, earthquakes, and great hail are accompanied by the revealing of the Arc of the Covenant and the Unchanging Faithfulness and Glory of GOD’s HOLINESS!

Exodus 34: 27 & 28, “Then the Lord said to Moses: “Write these words, for according to the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” So, he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And he wrote on the tablets the Words of the Covenant, the Ten Commandments.

These forty days and forty nights, in the presence of the Lord, is a significant time period! It ratifies the completion of the transfer of authority from one party to another or from one person to another!

The children of Israel have agreed for Jehovah Shammah (the Lord is Present) to be her King, her Husband, her Provider, her Defender, her Guide, her Shepherd, and her Savior.

God stated that He will:

Make them His special treasure,

Place them above all the people of the earth,

Make them a Kingdom of priests.

Make them a Holy Nation,

He will give them land.

Exodus 23: 20, Behold I send an Angel before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I prepared. (Remember that a kingdom must have a parcel of LAND to be a kingdom). God is promising the house of Israel Real Estate. Chapter 34: 10, 11. And He the Lord said: “Behold, I make a covenant. Before all you people, I will do marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you! Observe what I command you this day. Behold, I am driving out from before you the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.”

The children of Israel have agreed to do ALL the words of the Covenant. “ALL that the LORD has said we will do! (Chapter 19: 5-8, 24: 3, 24:7)”!

Let us take a look at the Kingdom of God up to this time in history. The time when the Eternal Jehovah enters into a covenant with a people that He delivered from slavery.

God is the Eternal King who has a Spiritual Kingdom. He is expanding His Kingdom by creating a colony called Earth, which is made of physical elements such as dust, clay, and water. He then creates mankind out of the substances of the earth and puts man in charge of all His creation on that earth. God crowns man with glory and honor. God’s intention is to fellowship with man and eventually make this earthly man part of His Family, namely Spiritual Beings. He wants mankind to become His children! In other words, God the Creator is the Father who loves and cares for His wonderful Family!

Now let’s talk about the good news of the Kingdom of our great God and Redeemer! When the KING makes a decree, He does not deviate from it. His plan was to have a family, namely Spirit Beings like Himself. Adam lost his Kingdom. We know now that Adam and Eve reasoned in their minds that they could do better for themselves by leaning on their own understanding rather than following the wisdom and command of the Lord.

God spoke to the children of Israel: “Now therefore, IF you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, (Exodus 19: 5), creating a conditional term and depending on the Israelites to keep their part of the Covenant.

Herein lies the problem with men who are not filled with the Spirit of God and thereby lack faith to trust God. God’s patience is tested by these rebellious people. However, the Lord desires to have Ambassadors to represent His Kingdom here on Earth. In other words, the Kingdom of God is still a work in progress!

The Holy Spirit of the Lord has made this conflict clear to me. The conflict between two minds of understanding, two ways of living, and two final destinies. Please read Psalm One and take some time to meditate on the words! It is the theme of all mankind from Genesis to Revelation! Two opposing spiritual governments are ruling the Earth Colony of the Eternal. There is Satan and his demons, and there is God‘s chosen people, Israel.

Hosea 5: 11: Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment because he willingly walked by human precept!

Ephraim is the younger of the two sons of Joseph. In Jacob’s dying days, Joseph brought his two sons to Jacob to receive a blessing from the patriot, their grandfather. Jacob declared in Genesis 48: 5, And now your two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt are mine as Ruben and Simeon, they shall be mine!

Jacob pronounced a greater blessing on Ephraim as he did on Manasseh. In fact, Ephraim and Manasseh received the greatest blessings of all the sons of Jacob – by far! With all the blessings comes a responsibility not to squander the blessings but to be good stewards of the resources; physical and spiritual.

The tribe of Ephraim became, in many ways, the heartbeat of the children of Israel. So, when Hosea says Ephraim, he is talking about the strength of Israel as a Nation; Hosea is talking about the obedience to God’s WORDS and the faith of that Nation. In Jeremiah 31: 9 we find an astonishing statement as the Prophet of Adonai declares the following words: “For I am a Father (God the Father speaking and the Prophet Jeremiah being His mouthpiece) to Israel and Ephraim is my firstborn!

To reason by human precepts will cause a serious “snowball effect “and a downward spiral in clear judgment and laws created by these foggy ideas of man.

We are discussing the Kingdom of God here on Earth. It may be easier to relate to our nation, the United States of America, than the nation of Israel. There are many parallels and similarities between these two nations. Our Nation's founding fathers had pledged their lives and their sacred honor to make this country a “Shining City on the Hill” from which the Word of God would brightly shine forth into all the world!

Returning to what Hosea is saying: So how are WE broken in judgment?

For example:

There are twenty-eight students in one class. One of them is offended that the teacher is using bible verses and bible stories to emphasize her point of the lesson. The mother of this one student is taking the school to court because she is an atheist. Being an atheist, she does not believe in the bible. The Supreme Court of the land agreed with her and handed down a victory to the offended mother. The Bibles, prayers, and the Ten Commandments are removed from our schools! Question: What about the twenty-seven other students? Do these students and their parents have rights too? And is it important to respect everybody’s rights? Of course, it is. In this case, the majority wins because we live in a Republic. Not so if we lean on men’s reasoning!

This opened the door to drugs, sex education, child pregnancies, and abortion “rights.” Removing God’s word, laws, principles, and prayers to God our heavenly Father from schools started an unraveling of the fabric and foundation of our Nation.

As another example:

One notices oil in his car’s cooling fluid. That usually means the head gasket will likely blow out in a few months or sooner. He decides to sell the vehicle “as is” but has no intention of informing the buyer of the problem. If he told the buyer about the problem, he would not be able to sell it, or would he have to greatly reduce the selling price, of course? What is his reasoning for doing such a thing? “Everybody else is doing it!”

A further example:

The Supermarket is selling damaged apples that were accidentally frozen in the delivery truck. The manager of the store knows that these apples are damaged. So why is he selling a bad product to his customers? He says: “We would take too much of a hit on these bad apples because we bought a lot of them!” Or: “It’s not our fault. We received them like this.” In other words, blame someone else!

Yet another example:

Our government is giving over one hundred billion dollars of our taxpayer’s money to support a war in Ukraine. How much money is one billion dollars you may ask. One billion is one thousand million! Most people in our government cannot even account for where the money is going. This all happens while the tax-paying citizens in our country cannot afford to purchase the medications they need to maintain their health. On the other hand, do millions of people who trespass illegally into our country receive everything free!? Our government is lying and deceiving its people not only about the inflation rates that are going up daily but also about everything else. So, what do we say? Our SYSTEM is broken! And what is God’s prophet Hosea saying?

You are oppressed and broken because you believe the humanist more than you believe God the Creator! You put your trust and faith in a lie! (Hello, Adam!)

Only two families of that faithless generation entered the promised land. Joshua and Caleb and their families. After conquering the land God promised them, we see a trend of departing from God’s Commandments and from faith in God’s principles to complacency and a lukewarmness toward the Commandments of God!

Israel is willingly walking by human precepts. “Did God really mean what He said,” the Serpent asked. The REAL answer is God always means what he says and always says what He means! Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap. Of course, the same goes for a Nation!

Now let’s talk about the good news of the Kingdom of our great God and our Redeemer! When the King makes a decree, He does not deviate from it. His plan was to have a family, namely spirit beings like Himself. Adam lost his kingdom, and he lost his dominion over God’s creation. God promised to send another SEED of the woman who WILL bruise the head of the house of wickedness (Gen. 3: 15 and Hab. 3: 13). The SEED is also called the “Second Adam”, who is the Son of Man and the Son of God!

There are several reasons for the coming of the Messiah:

He came to seek and to save that which is lost, namely all of mankind.

He came to fulfill the Law and the prophets (Matt. 5: 17-19). That is to complete our understanding in the “spirit of the laws" given to us by God and not just the "letter of the law only.”

He came to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. Luke 4: 43: But He said to them: “I must preach the Kingdom of God to the other cities also, because for this purpose I was sent!” (Jesus' speaking)

He came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3: 8). Satan is causing complete darkness; Christ is the light of the world! Satan enslaves people; Christ sets them free! Satan destroys lives; Christ gives new life!

Christ came to establish the second Covenant. This is also called the New Covenant by His substitutionary death through His own Blood!

He came to establish a Special People by teaching them about the purpose of the Kingdom of God and transferring His Authority to them. These Holy people are also called the People of THE WAY (of Christ). It is not a membership of a church but rather a citizenship of Heaven while being Ambassadors of God’s Kingdom here on Earth. The reason why these people are also called the Bride of Christ is, He is coming again to receive them unto Himself. After the wedding supper, they shall forever be with their Bridegroom!

The mission of the Son of Man:

The very first thing that Jesus, the Son of Man, did was to see John the Baptizer at the river Jordan and to get baptized by John.

Matthew 3: 16 etc.: Then Jesus, when He had been baptized came up immediately from the water, and behold THE HEAVENS WERE OPENED TO HIM, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alight upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from Heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”.

The Heavens were opened to Him, as His loving Father joint with His Son and the Holy Spirit of God as ONE !!! ELOHIM had invaded Earth to deliver Mankind from the forces of evil and eventually destroy Satan and the whole house of wickedness!

Phase one of our Lord’s ministry has begun. The Son of Man has regained the Holy Spirit of God! However, He cannot do the work of the Kingdom of God yet. Something very important needs to happen first. Christ needs to bind the Strong Man of the house of wickedness first before He can “plunder” his house (Matt. 12: 28-30). Satan has claimed rulership over the first Adam by leading him into sin and separation from God. That rulership and men’s DOMINION over the house of wickedness must first be regained.

The Holy Spirit of God is leading the Son of Man into the desert to engage in spiritual warfare against Lucifer, the fallen Arc Angel. Being filled with the Holy Spirit of God and relying on the presence of His Heavenly Father, Jesus the Man is challenging this spiritually brutal, vicious, and merciless Beast, Lucifer, for rulership and control of the earthly colony of God! Please keep in mind that this spiritual being, Lucifer, is filled with all envy and jealousy against mankind because of his limitations: Not to be made in the same image of God and blessed with the same kind of glory and honor that was uniquely placed on Adam and Eve: not having the ability to multiply and not being able to become a child of the wonderful and glorious family of God. His deep-seated hatred for man and the possibility that man would exercise dominion over him drives Satan with all the evil that he can muster to face off against the Son of Man to dash the hope of mankind – once and for all!

Here is the Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit of God, born by the virgin Mary, and came into the world like every other newborn child of humanity. Jesus, the Son of Man, is being tempted, seduced, and intimidated by the Devil and all his cohorts, the demons, for forty days! The Son of Man is given to fast all 40 days to be in utmost Oneness with His Heavenly Father. In the fullness and the power of the Holy Spirit and the unity of His Heavenly Father, Jesus is not only resisting the vicious onslaughts of the Devil and all his testing, intimidations, and deceptions; He is also rebuking Satan and all the Demons. The greatest triumph is that Jesus our Lord is proving to Satan the Devil that man created in the image of God can crush the HEAD of the house of wickedness! Hallelujah! WHAT A SAVIOR!

After having suffered warfare with Satan for forty days, Jesus the Man makes the most astonishing declaration. Our God the Holy Spirit gave me understanding about this most important and specific moment in our history and the life of the Son of Man here on Earth! Jesus said to Satan – but He not only spoke to Satan – but indeed shouted at him with a commanding loud voice:

GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN!

After forty days, and here are the forty days again, just as Moses was fasting in the presence of God, the required time was fulfilled. The Son of Man had won the battle against Lucifer the Devil. A transfer of authority had occurred! Satan was no longer in charge! He now had to submit to men. When Jesus commanded Satan and said: “Away with you, Satan!” The Devil had no choice but to comply with the command of men! Satan IS NOW subject to men’s authority and command. I cannot say this loud enough or clear enough: Satan and all his kingdom are, from that time on, subject to the authority of men!

For the sake of not being misunderstood, I need to make clear that this only pertains to people who are Heirs together with Christ and Ambassadors of the Heavenly King on this colony called Earth and are filled with the Holy Spirit of God to guide them as they represent the Kingdom of Heaven!

To clarify this further:

The Son of Man now has been Crowned with Glory and Honor by His Heavenly Father! Jesus has taken on the position of King over all the earth, physically and spiritually. We cannot call Him Christ without ascribing to Him Kingship and Lordship. It is one and the same.

Example:

If an individual is in the presence of the King and the King tells him, “Away with you!” The King is not just saying these words but because these words are coming from the mouth of the King; it is a command! Because a command from the King is also a LAW of His domain, that individual has no choice but to immediately comply with the King’s command and leave the presence of the King.

The Kingdom of God and the NEW KING, who is filled with the Holy Spirit of God, has arrived on earth, just as the Father had intended it from the beginning! Hallelujah! Praise our Savior our King!

Phase one of our Lord’s mission is accomplished.

Phase two of our Lord’s mission is now to start!

Still being in Matthew chapter four, the very first thing that Jesus said was recorded for us in verse 17. “From that time, Jesus began to preach and say, Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

Jesus did not preach the “Jesus’ gospel” that you hear in most so-called evangelical churches today. Our Savior preached the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. The same gospel that all the apostles preached, including Paul (please read the last chapter of Acts), and the same gospel that the early followers of The Way have preached!

And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelled in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, The way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles: The people who sat in darkness saw a great light, and upon those who sat in the region and Shadow of Death Light has dawned!" Matthew 4: 13 - 16

Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up you everlasting doors! And the King of Glory shall come in. Who is the King of Glory? The Lord strong and mighty, The Lord mighty in battle! Psalm 24: 7 & 8

Jesus the Son of Man, the Conqueror over Satan the Devil and the whole house of wickedness, tore open-wide the gates of Satan's prison camp and unshackled all those who sat in darkness and the shadow of death! Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus!

Luke 13: 10-17 Now He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. Please note that Jesus always kept the Sabbath holy. If we want the blessings and the power of the Spirit of God, we must be obedient to the Commandments and the Statues of God. Please do NOT expect the blessings of the Law Giver while breaking His wonderful, pure, and perfect law (Psalm 19).

And behold there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up. But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to Her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.” And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God! But the rulers of the synagogue answered with indignation because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath; and He said to the crowd, “There are six days on which man ought to work; therefore, come and be healed on them, and not on the Sabbath day.” The Lord then answered him and said, “Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it? So, ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound-think of it for eighteen years, be loosed from these bonds on the Sabbath?” And when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by Him.

After having chosen the disciples and after they had been with Jesus for some time and had seen Him do some wonderful miracles, and also, being taught by Him through practical applications of life, the sermon on the mount and listened to His parables, Christ decided that it was time for His team to get some hands-on experience!

In Matthew chapter 10, the Lord is sending His disciples to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. Verse seven: “And as you go, preach, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!” Verse eight: “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give!”

What an astonishing mission for the disciples of our Savior!

Mark 6: 12 & 13: So, they went out and preached that people should repent. And they cast out demons, and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them!

Please keep in mind that mankind is now in charge of the extended Kingdom of God here on earth. When a disciple instructed a demon to come out of that person, he was not just saying words; that disciple was commanding the demon to leave that person immediately! The demon had no choice but to obey the command of the disciple!

Hallelujah, praise be to our Great God!

(1 John 4: 4)! “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world!”

All power, honor, and thanksgiving be to our Savior and our King!

Phase two is complete. Jesus embarks on phase three.

In the very beginning of the ministry of the Son of Man, when John the Baptist saw Jesus coming, he exclaimed: “Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world!”

Hebrews 9: 11 etc. But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is not of this creation. Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption! Verse 15: And for this reason, He is the Mediator of the New Covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the First Covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. Verse 22: And according to the Law almost all things are purged (purified) with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no remission (forgiveness of sins).

Moses was the mediator of the first covenant. He sprinkled the book, the holy articles in the tabernacle and the people with blood to seal the Covenant that the children of Jacob were making with The Eternal.

Christ the Mediator of the Second Covenant is satisfying the Holy Requirements of The Eternal Father. With His own blood, He is entering into the MOST HOLY PLACE, in Heaven, and sprinkling the Arc of the Covenant and the Mercy Seat of GOD!

Matthew 27: 50-54: "Jesus, when He had cried out again with a loud voice, yielded up His Spirit. And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, and the graves were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many. Now when the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, truly this was the Son of God!”

The Holy of Holiest was opened when the thick veil was torn from top to bottom! The high priest was not able to continue his service to atone for his people. The Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, had made atonement for all of mankind, past and present! Christ had satisfied the righteous requirements of His Holy Father for all times. The Lord Jesus has become the only way to the Heavenly Father, and His Atoning Blood has become the only sufficient “detergent” to wash away our sins and to cleanse us from ALL unrighteousness that we have committed against God!

Again and again, Hallelujah to our wonderful Savior! The Holy Son of God who came into this world and offered His Pure and Undefiled body to take my place and paid the price for my sins!

While I was yet a sinner and an enemy of God, Christ died for me!

Whenever I think about this, I realize my complete unworthiness in the sight of God and that I am totally undone and unholy without my Savior! However, having accepted by faith the atonement of Christ on my behalf, I now am a child of God in Christ Jesus my LORD! For He became sin for me that I may become the righteousness of Christ in Him!

Oh, Heavenly Father! In the name of Your Son Jesus, take me as I am and make me your own. Everything that I am and everything that you have entrusted to me is yours! Wash me and teach me your will for my life, that I may walk in the Way Everlasting. Amen

Phase three of the mission of our Savior is complete.

The last phase of the mission of the Son of God is about to start.

Jesus rose from the dead after being in the grave for three days and three nights. An angel declared the good news to the women in Matthew 28: 5-8: But the angel answered and said to the women. “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come and see where the Lord lay.”

The risen Lord met the women as they were on their way to tell the disciples the good news that the Savior is alive! Word spread quickly among all followers of Jesus as He instructed them to go to Galilee: “And there they will see me!” (verse 10)

The Gospel of the Kingdom of God has many facets. All of it is good news because the Living Word of God is true, and all His promises are sure to come to fruition!

Isaiah 46: 10: “Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.”

The Risen King was no longer healing the sick or casting out demons; He was no longer speaking to the crowds of people! After His resurrection, the Lord’s final days here on Earth were given over totally to His followers to prepare them for His departure and how to continue the ministry that He started after receiving the Promise of the Father!

ACTS 1: 3-5: To whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them for forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God! And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem but wait for the Promise of the Father, “which” He said. “You have heard from me; for John truly baptized you with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

I highlighted two items that are of extreme importance to God’s extended Kingdom here on Earth.

The first one is the forty days that the Risen Lord spent with His followers. This is needed to confirm another transfer of power! Jesus said to His disciples in Matthew 28: 18-20:

ALL authority has been given to me in HEAVEN and on EARTH!

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Just as God transferred His authority to the children of Israel to be His Ambassadors here on earth, after Moses spent forty days in the mountain with God, just as the Son of Man was engaged with Satan in the desert for forty days to re-gain man’s authority over the devil and his earthly kingdom; so also the disciples, were spending forty days in the presence of God our risen Lord to finalize His transfer of His Authority to them as being His Representatives here on earth, before Christ’s return to His Heavenly Father!

Nothing has ever changed in the plan of God. The old Covenant and the new Covenant dovetail beautifully together. Once we understand God’s Holy Kingdom and His desire to extend His Kingdom here on earth, we will, by faith, echo the words of the Apostle Peter in 1 Peter 2: 9-10: “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: who once were not a people but now are the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy!”

Here is a small portion of the prayer of our Savior in John 17: 8-11: “For I have given to them the words which you have given me and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from you; and they have believed that You sent me. I pray for them, I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given me, for they are Yours. And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine, and I am glorified in them. “Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be One as We are One.

One or Oneness is always a reference to the Holy Spirit of God. The Spirit of God leads us into Oneness with Christ, the Father, and One another. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit of God. If sin is allowed in our life, our fellowship with the Spirit is broken. Only after confessing our sin and repentance from sin, by the blood and the name of Christ our Lord, the Spirit of God will return.

The Risen Lord is instructing His followers to stay in Jerusalem because of the Promise of the Father, namely the return of the Holy Spirit to earth!

On the Holy Day of Pentecost (one of God’s Holy Days on God’s appointed calendar days), the promise of the scripture is fulfilled! The Holy Spirit returned to the Heirs of this Promise, who are the children of God here on Earth!

If there is anything else left to say, it is: Hallelujah and Praise be to our God for His wonderful plan and for His Faithfulness to ALWAYS stay true to His word! Glory, Honor, and Power belong to our King!

Since we are God’s children, He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Yes, we are Lords since He has given us a territory to serve Him! Whatever we bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven and whatever we lose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven! Therefore, may the conduct of our lives be pleasing to our Heavenly Father and in the Will of the Commander of the Lord’s Army, who is the Author and Finisher of our faith!

God’s ultimate plan is coming to fruition:

God and His Kingdom come to live on Earth with “The Bride, the Lamb’s Wife.” Satan and his government will be removed from the Earth and the Eternal will establish His Everlasting and ONLY Kingdom here on Earth!

Here is Revelations chapter 21: 1-3:

And “I saw (John recording for us future events) a new Heaven and a new Earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also, there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the Holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a Bride adorned for her Husband. And I heard a loud voice from Heaven saying: “Behold the Tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God!

(Location, location, location!) The new JERUSALEM, the Capital of the Earth and of Heaven!

“So why then are we going to Heaven after being caught up with Christ and His angels in the air?” you may ask. The answer is that we are making a detour into Heaven on our way to the final resting place and HOME here on Earth.

God has planned several important functions for us, as well as assignments, while in Heaven. One of them is for God the Father to walk the Bride down the aisle, with all angels in attendance, and consummate the union with His Wonderful Son and the Bride of Christ! After this comes the celebration of the Marriage Supper of The Lamb!

Tabernacle is a common term for a dwelling place that is movable. God, too, has dwelled in many different locations to be with His people! But this is the final resting place of the presence of the Everlasting King and His Kingdom, here on earth and with His family that He loves so very much!

Revelations 22: 14: Blessed are those who DO His commandments, that they may have the right to the Tree of Life and may enter through the gates into the city.

Hallelujah, and all Glory, all Honor, all Praise, and all Thanksgiving be to our Great King forever and EVER more!
