The King and His Kingdom Part 2

Thanks for checking out the Anchor Faith Message podcast

from St. Augustine, FL.

Now enjoy this message. Last week we started taking time

to break down the Kingdom again and it's very important that we

have a hunger for the Kingdom again.

I was just talking with George before service today.

He was said he was reading in the Bible reading plan where it

talked about the one left the 99, you know, and it said how

all the angels rejoice because the one comes back.

Do you understand that most people interpret that scripture

as the one being a person lost? But that's not true because the

one was with the 99 and the 99 was with the Lord.

So that Scripture along with the prodigal son, the prodigal son

is not a type and shadow of the world, neither is the one

leaving the 99. They are both someone who's been

in the house, who's had a relationship with the father and

then hardened themselves out of their own pursuit of selfish

ambition and want to do it their way.

And they left the safety of and provision of home.

Now why would all the angels rejoice mightily when the one

who was lost would come back into the full?

Because you know how hard you're going to have to harden your

heart to discredit the words you've been acting on.

The Bible tells us how dark it is.

A person that once they're exposed to life, to get back in

darkness. So you understand it's not funny

business when you've had a relationship with Jesus, you've

been actively involved in a church, you recognize those

things and then you get offended or upset or something happens

that you begin to not value the head of the church in his church

and you begin to see it as well. It's maybe something I'll do or

maybe I want won't. And you move out.

Guess what? It is a hardening of your heart.

And when someone starts to layer the light you have, then it can

be extremely difficult for you to return.

I've said this with married couples because I've had this

happen in the past that people they were married and all of a

sudden someone wants to leave and basically they would throw

this out. They say, well you know I'm

going to divorce them anyway and I'll just ask God to forgive me.

I said you think you will. We do know God is a forgiver and

we do know if we do sin that God will forgive us.

But when you openly know I'm going to sin and harden my heart

from doing what's right, I'm going to go ahead and do wrong,

that we really think with all of our heart we're going to

actually come back and repent. Most do not.

In fact, I in my experience with those individuals that I've had

that conversation with, the one that hardened their heart from

the Word and went ahead and divorced anyway, they've never

had an intimate relationship with the Lord.

Again. I've not seen it now, I have

seen a religious exercise, but man, you get around them and

they're not walking in love. They're really not walking in

forgiveness. They're always trying to justify

their position. Why?

Because they had to justify to leave.

This is why it's difficult that when the one separates from the

99. But if they do come and you

understand the Good Shepherd, the great Shepherd, the chief

Shepherd, that's Jesus, He's going to do everything he can.

To pull you in. He'll use people, he'll try to

get them to you to make correction, He'll work on those

particular things. But at the end of the day, if

you've hardened your heart, sometimes it's very challenging.

But This is why the angels rejoiced, because they knew how

much at risk you are. This is why the Scripture says

if someone comes in and then leaves, it would have been

better for them not to have known the way.

That's what the Bible says. So again, when you get born

again, is it a security? Yes, as long as you continue to

do what you did to get in and that is to crucify self, crucify

your will, do it God's way, yield to him that I'm going to

tell you right now it's the best existence ever.

But if you ever along the way in your journey begin to say, not

sure I'm going to do it like that anymore.

I've done enough. You're at risk, and that's not

what God wants. And you know what?

How do you know that you're starting to maybe walk in a path

that way is how are you hearing the word when it's something

you've already heard? Because when it's something

you've already heard, you're like, Oh yeah, I know that.

I know where pastor's going. I know what he's doing instead

of Lord. I remember the first time I

heard. This Come on now.

Listen, I, I frequent some restaurants, OK?

And I have some relationship with the owners of some

restaurants because of how frequent I go there.

There's one particular one and you all know this because y'all

usually give us a bunch of gift cards when you're, you know,

being a blessing to us, to the Black Molly, OK?

And so there is a standard at Black Molly in my taste.

Buds and that is their spinach artichoke dip.

It is so good that any other restaurant I ever go to.

I measure it to theirs. Now this is my this is not

biblical. This is opinion.

So if you hate it, that's that's because you have undeveloped

taste buds. I get that.

And I, I, I I'm not here to help develop your taste buds to be

honest with you. That's like you coffee.

Drinkers that don't drink it black.

You just untrained and unlearned.

When you finally get over to black, you're going to arrive to

where you need to be. All right.

See here, all the religious people.

Nay, and I get it, you know. I'm surrounded by religious

people. With that being said, my point

is is that that particular place and that menu item.

I love it every I don't go and. Say, well, I guess we'll do the

spinach artichoke dip. No, I have this confident

expectation that when I order it, man, my little taste buds

are going to start doing this. Dance around, be like, whoa,

this is so good. And you're like, oh, this is so

good. You know when you're eating

food, you're like. This is so good.

And it's always even better when you've gone and had horrible

food for a little while and then you come back to a place that

you know is good. Then it's like even better than

better, although it may not be. It's just that you've had some

really bad food experiences. We had that at camp.

When we went to Virginia, we had some really bad food

experiences. Y'all need to pray for Virginia.

I don't think they know how to eat.

I only think they don't know how to cook.

Us all processed. I don't know.

I don't know what's going on in that state.

I mean it's like does anybody what is happening?

I'm like y'all need to come to Florida and taste food for the

first time. But in Matthew 15, three, you

know what it says? And he answered and said to

them, why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake

of your tradition? He is not talking to lost

people. And when I say that you

understand everybody was lost when Jesus was there, but he's

talking to people who knew God because in the dispensation they

were in, they had access to God. Especially these which were the

Pharisees, the religious, the priests ascribes because the

anointing would come upon them. So they could have understanding

of the word, because it was their responsibility to teach

the nation of Israel. So they knew exactly what they

were supposed to say, but they chose not to say it because they

loved the accolades instead of giving it to God.

And they loved the positions that put them in with the local

government instead of with God. OK.

This is why they let Jesus. They wanted Jesus crucified

because they loved Caesar. More than they did Jesus.

And they touted that we have only one king and his name,

Caesar. That's what they told Pilate the

day that they said crucify him. He said, what do you want me to

do with your king? And they said, we have no king

but Caesar. So they picked the world's king,

which is really, we're going to go with the devil, right

instead. So again, in the church we have

to always guard ourselves from receiving the Word as the Word

of men or as a common thing that we've heard.

We need to receive it for what it really is, the Word of God

and passionately want to receive.

That. Because you understand, we have

just begun to scratch the surface of His Kingdom.

For anyone in this room to say, well, I know about the Kingdom

of God, that is untruth. You know something about it, but

not to the layer that we need to know.

In fact, as much as we study and God reveals, the Bible tells

that it still is, has a veil to it, and until we go and be with

Him will it be completely stripped off.

So even as much revelation as we can receive, we still only know

in part. So what part?

We know we need to rejoice and exercise that part because if we

do not continually exercise the part and do what's necessary,

then we will lose what we have gained.

Are you hearing me? OK?

So we saw that the whole planet was set up so that God could

give it to man. When God created the heavens and

the earth He created with the intentions of giving it to man,

He didn't want it to be empty. We read this in Psalms 8911.

We said this in Isaiah 4518 and we jumped over into a Psalms 115

Psalms 115:15

verse 15. This was last week and where it

says the highest heavens are the Lord, but the earth He has given

to the sons of man. So the territory of the earth

was created by the home country which is heaven and it was not

taken by force. He didn't come conquer this

thing He made. It so it's God's Bible, pride of

creation. He created everything, the

heavens and the earth. The earth is extremely important

to God in our modern day US Christianity, we don't think the

earth is important. Now I'm not getting into climate

change, although there's a climate change that is a that is

a reality now, not from the political party reality from the

biblical party reality. Is the earth going to get

warmer? Yes, much warmer, extremely

warm, in fact, so warm that it's going to burn.

It will burn, say burn, baby, burn it will.

But it's burning because God's going to make it new.

He's going to burn off anything that is in error because when he

deals with the devil once and for all throws him to the lake

of fire, which is the the second death and all those who denounce

Jesus as Lord and everyone else who rebelled against his Kingdom

and they are in the prison system of God's Kingdom.

The lake of fire is God's prison.

It's not the devil's home. The devil doesn't live in hell.

It's not his home. He had a right to death because

Adam fell from dominion, sinned and death came.

A hold came into play because everyone who who goes against

the word of God, death comes. However, Jesus conquered death,

hell in the grave, meaning he's the only righteous judge who can

now dictate who goes there. In essence, he became the warden

of the prison. Are you hearing me?

So those who go, go voluntarily because they rejected Jesus as

king. So when all that's said and

done, the Bible tells us that in in Peter that by fire he'll burn

the heavens and the earth. Now that's not the 3rd heaven

where God lives. Because in the 3rd heaven, the

minute a rebellion started, God got rid of it.

And how fast did he get rid of it?

Light, lightning. Jesus said, I saw Satan fall

like lightning from heaven. It was very quick.

You're not going to be up here doing this.

Boom, you're gone. OK, with that being said, there

is a 1st heaven, 2nd heaven and in those areas where there's

principalities and powers, there's things that are wrong.

God fire is always a representation of purging

unrighteousness. It is the burn off that which is

wrong. So there's been a lot of stuff

done on this planet that God never intended.

And so God has to purify it like you purify gold.

You get it to the fire, the dross comes up, you pull it off

so that you're left with the purity of the gold and God will

only have a pure planet Earth. I said he'll only have a pure

planet Earth. So the fires coming, say when is

it? Well, that's when we come back

and reign with him after the 1000 years and the devil comes

and attacks that Jesus and his nation again.

It will amount to nothing and he'll cast.

Him. And then they'll give up the

dead, and they'll be the Great White Throne Judgment.

They'll all be cast into the Lake of Fire, and then everyone

that's on the earth will be caught in that fire, which is no

big deal because Shadrach, Meshak and Abednego was caught

in a fiery furnace. Seven times hotter and hot and

they didn't burn, didn't smell like smoke.

They were right in the middle of it.

We can stand right here on the planet while it burns.

It'll be the best bonfire you've ever been to in your life.

Not only will you see it, you'll be in the middle.

Of it, OK? And it will burn off all the

impurities that then we'll have a new heavens and new earth, and

we'll be with the Lord forever in all eternity, where nothing

but righteousness is in all of his creation.

And there's one isolated place where unrighteousness exists.

It is the lake of fire. And they'll never get out.

And they'll be tormented forever by choice, by their choice.

Are you hearing me? So it's important for us to

understand that God, when he created this Earth, initially

those that he put in the planet were not of a different nature

than Him. So when he made Adam out of the

dust of the earth, breathe into his nostrils the breath of life

from his nature. He created humans, He created

man and woman. Infer Genesis chapter one verse

26 that said then God said, let us make man in our image

according to our likeness and let him have them have dominion.

Over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, over the

cattle, over all the earth, over every creeping thing that creeps

on the earth. Verse 27 So God created man in

his own image, in the image of God.

He created him male and female. So the spirit of man goes into a

male suit and into a female suit.

God never gets that wrong. They're always exactly where he

ordained them, OK. And as a result of that, they

were to have demean over the earth, not over each other, but

over the earth. They both possess dominion.

Now God needs them to function in this dominion status.

And dominion is not a religious position.

Dominion means to govern, it means to rule, it means to

manage, it means to have rulership.

So Adam, the first Adam had no concept of a religious exercise.

Adam's concept of God was he's the king of heaven.

He's made me king of the earth. He could also say it this way.

He is the God of heaven and God of all creation, and he's made

me God of the earth. I'm submitted to him.

The God. I'm a little God.

I'm a little God now He's not God himself, but he is a little

God. Now this shouldn't be hard for

us because at this point in the new covenant, you're called

children of. Well, if you're children of God,

then you must be of God or you're the Bible calls you sons

of. So in essence, you're little

gods because you function under the authority of the God.

How do we know this God capacity works or this ultimate

rulership? When Paul was recounting the

authority that the devil possessed concerning the systems

that were functioning on the planet, even after his defeat,

he says the God of this world, meaning the systems that are in

play, the way things function away from God's Kingdom, there

is a God or one that's in authority or supreme authority

of that system and that is the devil.

So again, 2nd Corinthians 4 four says the God of this world has

blinded the eyes of the unbelieving so that they cannot

see the light of the gospel or recognize their true place they

should be in, and that is under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

OK, So again even the devil was contributed as a God of this

world and even Jesus himself in the temptation that he had with

the devil in Luke chapter 4, the devil showed him all the

Luke 4 · chapter mention

kingdoms in a moment of time because he knows this is not

about religion. I do religion for man.

I keep religion in front of man because it keeps man confused

and deceived, because if he knew this was only about a Kingdom

and the government or King's dominion for man, then he would

not tolerate religion anyway. So I keep him confused on which

way to go. Which way is right?

Which one's right? Which way?

Who do we serve? Who do we?

I mean, how all these people in these other countries worship

this other God? Could they be wrong?

Maybe you're wrong. We keep them in confusion.

OK, but he doesn't do that to Jesus.

He doesn't tempt Jesus with the religions of the world.

He tempts Jesus with kingdoms. He said all this domain I'll

give to you, for they have been handed over to me.

Where? Where did he get it from?

He had received it from Adam. So when Adam ate the fruit that

the Lord told him not to, OK. And the reason why God has to

say don't eat this fruit, eat everything else but not this one

is because God needs to know that Adam loves him.

He's of his nature, he's of love.

We should know this, but our love to God is not demonstrated

with the words I love you. Jesus defines how we love God.

He says if you love me, you will what?

Keep my word so we must be doers of the word and here's the

thing, it's not our self effort. It is our effort in Christ that

accomplishes it. Now I will say this, there is a

time you do it yourself or you're participating, which I

when I say at times, really it's every time, but again, you're

being empowered because God has opened the door by his Spirit to

let you know if you do this choice life.

So think about it when you were dead in your trespasses of sin.

The Bible is very clear. No one goes after God.

No, not one. And you can't even come to the

Father unless He draws you, which means somewhere along the

line, God Himself, through His Holy Spirit, started speaking to

your heart. And He started speaking to your

heart while you were a Sinner dead.

Cut off from God, couldn't hear God, didn't want anything to do

with God, would never say yes to God, would never serve God of

your own free will. Yet that voice and the

revelation of that moment that Jesus Christ has made the way

for you to come into this Kingdom and you believed it by

faith. Even as a Sinner, you could say

I believe Jesus Christ came born of a virgin, died on the third

day, rose from the dead and I confess him as Lord.

A Sinner did that. But the minute you did that by

faith, then that spirit that was dead and could not hear, could

not commune with God, could not go any further with God, could

not have a relationship with God, is ripped out of your skin

suit and is immediately replaced with a new spirit that is in

Christ that now has a direct connect with heaven and given

dominion status. You can rule and reign now.

You can follow the Spirit of God, you can obey the voice of

God, and you can prove day after day that you love Him because

your spirit wants to do the Word.

So Jesus said, now if you love me, you go keep my word.

So he says, Adam, if you love me, don't eat the tree of the

knowledge of good and evil for the day you eat you'll surely.

And we said this 100,000 times, we're going to say it 100,000

times more, maybe even a billion if it takes that long before

Jesus returned. If Adam had never eaten the.

Fruit. Where would he be today?

He'd be right here. So Adam was not trying to go to

heaven, which tells us the new birth experience is not about

going to heaven. It's about becoming a child of

God and receiving the dominion God originally had for you.

That's what it's about now. I'm not telling you you won't go

to heaven because the Bible says to be absent from the body.

You'll be what? Present with the Lord?

Where is the Lord presently at? He's in heaven.

Is he staying there? If you read the scripture,

you'll know he's not that Jesus will come back.

And who will come back with? Him.

We will. All right, So wherever the Lord

is, I am. Now, if you want to stay in

heaven when the Lord's not there, that's on you.

And I don't even know if that's Kate, if you're capable of doing

that, because again, if he's Lord and he says, all right,

let's go back to the earth, what are you going to do?

No, I think I'm just. Going to stay up here, been down

there before, didn't really care for it.

Wasn't a great existence for me, you know, till I met you and you

were awesome. You changed my life and now that

I'm up here, don't want to have to hang out with sin again.

How many of you believe you'll see sin again after you go to

heaven? You bet you will.

I didn't say you'd participate in it, but you'll see it because

when you come back in the millennial reign with Christ,

there will be people on the planet still in sin.

The good news is, is that you won't be subject to it again.

You're not going to fail or fall.

You're sealed in righteousness. You have your glorified body.

You're no longer ever going to be connected to that because you

have been delivered from the second death.

And you'll be able to walk on this planet in a way that you

never walked on it before. Because right now we're born

again. We have His spirit, we have his

power. We can renew our minds.

We can walk in dominion, but our flesh is still here.

Our body's still dying. We still have some connectors to

it. We're having to crucify that

daily so dominion can continue to move, so we can function in

our rulership, but when we come back with the Lord, our flesh

won't be connected to it. We'll be free from all that.

Hallelujah. Now for some of you this may

sound like strange teaching, but it's actually biblical teaching

because when you actually read the Bible from Genesis. 11 to

Revelations 2221. You'll find this has been there

the whole time and again, American Christianity has put us

in this position where all we want to do is know where we go

when we die. And Jesus never asked that

question. He never looked at anyone and

says do you know where you're going to go when you die?

That was never a preaching point for Jesus.

He did answer the question. When I say the question, he

really just communicated. The first time he ever said born

again was never publicly he said it, you know, about 2:00 in the

morning to a religious guy by the name of Nicodemus.

And this is where we hear the term born again, which is better

translated born from above. And that conversation he was

having with that religious man was about the Kingdom or about

hit the father. It's obvious that you are of God

because the works you're doing, man, nobody can explain this.

We would have to deny our God to deny the works you're doing.

And then Jesus said unless a man's born again, he will not

enter the Kingdom. So he's letting him know how

you're going to get in. You've got to be born from

above. So Nicodemus a little confused

by that statement. And he says, how can I be a

grown man, Get back in my mom's womb?

He says you're missing it because this is not a natural

birth. This is a spiritual birth.

You can't do this. All your good works to try to be

right with me doesn't work. That's why Paul said in First

Corinthians 7, he said, man, I wanted to do right.

I mean everything I wanted to do that was right.

I found myself just being wrong. And the things I didn't even

want to do, I found myself doing them.

I'm just a wretched man who will save me from this life of sin.

But thanks be unto God that I am, I can triumph in Christ

delivered me from that kind of life.

So he says, listen, you're going to have to be born in my spirit.

In essence, if you're not born again, you can't enter or see

the Kingdom of God. Born again is entrance.

It's not the end. And we've made the Bible in the

US specifically, that the end of all end is just get born again.

And Jesus, like, that's just getting you through the door.

You're not experiencing it, you're just now in the house,

but I'll send my Spirit to teach you how to live in the house

function and do the same because Jesus said the works that I do,

most believers are just trying to get to heaven.

I'm going to heaven when I die. We'll do the works of.

Jesus, because he did them where?

Right here. Amen.

So a Kingdom then, which is what Jesus preached, is the Kingdom

is a government influence of a king over his territory,

impacting it with his personal will, purpose and intent,

producing citizens, expressing the culture, values, morals and

lifestyles reflecting the King's nature.

So God's original plan was to extend His heavenly Kingdom on

the earth through mankind. God created man to manage and

administrate His King's dominion on the earth.

Are you hearing what I'm saying So when Adam rebelled the The

most dangerous word in a Kingdom is independence.

The most dangerous word in the Kingdom is what what it what is

going to happen Thursday is what Independence Day.

This is why it's so easy for us to water down scripture in the

US is because we want to maintain our independence and

independence from what the King. Oh y'all don't want to hear

this? In our fact now again, we

rebelled from a monarch, from another nation based upon some

representation and some additional things.

I'm not going to get in that history lesson.

OK, But never were we supposed to rebel from the King Jesus.

So what we've done is we've brought in our U.S. government

into the church, and we want to be born of a nation that we get

to do whatever we want to do because we've been sold the lie

that in the free nation you can do whatever you want to do.

That's not freedom. Freedom is not free to do

whatever you want to do because you're not free to kill people.

You're not free to steal. Even though there's some places

it looks like it. I understand that, but we're not

free. There are things in place so

that we are. We have the boundaries to create

life. Any nation has to have laws, so

there is order. Do you understand God has some

laws as well. Now again, the minute I say that

the religious Christians go, we're not under the law.

Yes you are. It's called the law of the

Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. That's in Romans now you're not

doing a work independent of God to be right with God cause the

law showed you couldn't do that. But once you're born again, he

didn't do away with the law, he fulfilled it.

So guess what's still in play? Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Y'all went there first. OK, I was going to say murder

myself. We might need to do a marriage

seminar right now, huh? I bond that religious or lustful

spirit right now in Jesus name away from all these people.

OK, so to say that the law's been destroyed and we don't have

to live a no in the New Covenant, you can't murder

someone under grace. I don't like you.

I'm going to kill you because I'm tired of hearing your mouth

because I'm under grace. Oh, this preach is really good.

OK, now again, the whole context of law is in that dispensation

God reveals. Look how much of A Sinner you

are, because prior to the law they were doing whatever they.

Want to do and they did what seems right.

They had no boundaries or nothing that God was setting a

standard that was revealing their sin to them.

But when the law came it revealed it.

In fact, Paul said that he said now listen, until the law came,

I didn't know I was coveting though I was.

And the minute the law showed up, covetousness came alive in

me. All of a sudden I realized, man,

I covet. I'm doing that.

So the law revealed the heart. Jesus makes us a new creature in

Christ because when Jesus came, he didn't murder people, he

didn't steal, he didn't covet. He fulfilled the law, which

means now the spirit in you, you get to fulfill it too.

You don't have desires to want to covet your neighbor's stuff

because if you did, you'd be like, something ain't right with

me. That's a freaking nature.

You can't covet someone's stuff under grace and God be like I'm

fine with. It.

That's not the point. The point is now you can live in

a way submitted to God by his Spirit and your nature's alive

to God to do so. So independence is the most

dangerous word in the Kingdom and we have embraced it in the

US church that all I need to do is be born again and don't tell

me how I'm supposed to live. But in the Kingdom the king

tells you how you supposed to. In fact, all through the

Scriptures written by Paul to the churches, those are letters

that are saying this in this Kingdom, this is the correct

behavior and he never let grace cover bad behavior.

In fact, he says, I'm shocked you're having this behavior

cause the grace of God has actually now empowered you to

not. Have that behavior.

So it's more applicable to question if grace is in your

life. Then it would be to say that

grace is functioning because you can live like you were lost, but

still be fine with God. So independence in the US

churches like the United States. I can, I ask Lord, come in my

heart, don't tell me what to do. I can come to church when I want

to. I can do what I want to do.

I can be where I want to be. You can't tell me what I'm sure

not going to submit to a pastor. Forget that.

Ain't nobody going to tell me what to do.

Well, that's U.S. government stuff.

That's not Kingdom. And when you get into

independence, then it breathes the next one, and that is

rebellion. Because the minute Adam saw

himself independent of God, he rebelled.

Now I will say this so you'll understand the difference of

terms. When you're in God's Kingdom,

you lose your independence because you are fully dependent

not only on Jesus but his body. You're dependent on both.

So what you you lose your independence, but you do not

lose your individuality. What is this?

What is this? That's my finger.

OK. What is this?

Why'd you call an elbow? Why did?

Why is it not a finger? I mean it's.

My body's a free country. It can do what it wants to do.

OK, what's this right here? Come on, what is it?

I'm not at trying to impress you.

I mean, it's all I got. What is this?

I'm pointing at it. Whether you see it or not, it

doesn't matter. Don't make me get you stand up

here, OK? What is this?

A bicep? Why we caught.

So it's an individual part of my body and you know, my elbow, my

finger and my bicep work together and they do not fight

against each other. If they start to fight against

each other, then there's an abnormality with me.

That's then I'm seeing LGI got a problem, man.

There's something's wrong. I'm not functioning right.

He's like, let's figure out what individual part of you is

rebelling. Oh yeah, I'm glad we're getting

there. This is good stuff in it.

Wow. So what I'm saying is is that we

have, we're all individual. Please do not be me.

I don't want to be you. Don't be me.

Be who you are and embrace who you are because you're so

uniquely made and created by God.

But you sure are not independent of me.

You can't say you don't need me. You can't say you don't need the

church. You can't say you can be with

Jesus without church because that's impossible.

He's the head of the church. To be with Jesus without the

church means you cut his head off.

A head without a body is decapitated.

You cannot worship Jesus at your house and think God's OK with

it. Now if you are stuck at home,

that's one. Thing if you're bed bound,

that's one thing. But let me tell you, if you are

bed bound, you need to find you four friends that'd be willing

to pick you up and bring you to church.

Because some people that bed Bob don't won't even get enough

faith and they don't have enough for four friends of faith to say

we got to get you up out of this house.

God never intended you be stuck at the house.

God did not put you on the planet so that you can be stuck

at the house and watch TV ministry.

All right, so the fall of man was not a fall from Dominion.

It was a fall from. Or it was a fall.

From dominion, not a fall from heaven.

The purpose and goal of God's redemptive plan is to restore

mankind back to God's original plan.

So the restoration of God's King's dominion to earth is

God's ultimate goal. Adam lost a Kingdom, not a

religion, and therefore the redemptive work of the Creator

would be the reestablishment of His Kingdom on the earth.

Kenneth E Hagin in his book the The Believers Authority said

this. The trouble with us is that

we've preached a cross religion. We need to preach a throne one,

and we love the cross. We wear it, we have it

everywhere. The cross is to remind us of the

price He paid for us. But God never wanted you to

identify only with your sin. You get around some believers

and all they can do is identify with their sin.

I'm just a sorry Sinner saved by grace.

Well, then you're not. Saved if you're still a sorry

Sinner, how can you be saved if you're a sorry Sinner well

brother, I sin every day like everybody else but I got grace

that's not what grace did grace did not empower you to continue

to sin and be right with God I'm.

Going to say that again. Grace did not empower you to sin

and be right with God. OK, grace paid the price first

because of what you could not do to be right with God.

Then grace will come and grab you when you activate it by

faith. Because if you don't have faith,

grace ain't even working. Then grace will go and grab you

out of the grave, snatch you through the cross, and when it

gets you through the cross, your spirit man that's dead without

God gets shoved out the door. He does not accept you as you

are. It doesn't even get in the

Kingdom. Who you were doesn't get in in

the spirit. He snatches out your old spirit,

puts in you a brand new spirit. Now the grace of God will

empower you, because then you receive the same grace, Jesus.

Had. And the grace Jesus had because

he was full of grace, the Bible says.

And if grace only means unmerited favor, I don't deserve

it. What did Jesus do that he didn't

deserve? When was he wrong and grace

kicked in? No, he was a man who knew.

No, you know, the grace he carried, the grace that caused

him. That when he was tempted on all

accounts like us, temptation is not sin, it is the door to sin.

And every time the door of temptation opened up at the

devil's like come on over in here and enjoy a little bit of

rebellion. Jesus with his grace could shut

the door and said, I ain't going there.

Jesus with the grace, he said, said, I'll keep on walking past

that door. I'm not getting in.

So you understand anything you've ever been through, Jesus

had the power to shut the door and He made you in His image,

which means now you can go to the door of any temptation and

go. You don't owe me no more.

Not going back there, not talking like that, not drinking

like that, not smoking like that, not acting like that, not

screwing around like that, not laying around like that, not

thinking like that. Shut the door.

You shut it because he's graced you to do so.

So if you're walking through the door, then Mercy starts to call

you back. Mercy comes around and says you

need to get up out of this room. You in the wrong room.

You're freaking nature right now.

All right, So we need to preach a throne one.

So kingdom's not a religion, but a government.

It was never God's plan to establish a religion.

This is what happens with religion.

Religion prepares man to leave earth.

The Kingdom empowers man to dominate Earth.

You know how many Christians just want to go to heaven and

listen? Heaven's awesome.

It's awesome. But again, we're acting like we

don't even have the God. Like it's going to be great when

we it'd be great because again, I understand we'll be in his

presence personally, but you understand he's in our presence

now in us. If we read the Bible, he's

always coming down to man anyway.

I mean, Jesus name Emmanuel means God and we're acting like

we can't be connected to God unless we're in heaven.

He's like, really, I'm in you. I mean, I'm talking to you.

I'm here. You have a religious thought.

Quit trying to leave. Let me keep coming in.

What's it say to pray? When you pray?

Pray this way. Our that.

Whose father? Whose father is it?

Your daddy. OK.

Not just Jesus, our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your

name, your Kingdom, your will be on as it is.

So we have the responsibility by faith, through the grace of God,

to pull his realm into this realm, and we don't have to wait

till we go to heaven to get there.

You know what? This is really such a better

gospel anyway, when you think about it, Jesus was not so weak

that all he could do was get you to a place when you die.

Jesus so powerful, He's like, I'll bring my place to you while

you're still in the midst of it all.

You understand what I'm saying? I mean, Jesus is not intimidated

with this world and sin. He's not intimidated with the

devil. He's not intimidated with the

rebellion of principalities and powers 'cause he's the king of

Glory Hill. I just get right down in the

middle of that stuff and show righteousness.

They'll be afraid of me. I'm sure not afraid of them.

Are you hearing me? So again, you have the most

powerful presence in the planet today living in you.

I understand we see all kind of horrible stuff, but we're not of

this world. We don't have to function and

participate like that. We have the third person of the

Godhead in US. God lives in US.

It's not destination gospel. It's destiny.

And destiny occurs the minute I call on the name of the Lord.

God made me this way. But if all I do is identify with

my sin nature, then I want to leave.

But God wants me to identify with my Christ nature.

Man, you're a king now. You have royalty, you have

dominion. Go ahead and rule and reign.

Go ahead and fulfill my plan. Go ahead and know that my word

will not return unto me. Boy, just believe, only believe.

So religion focuses on heaven, but the Kingdom focuses on

Earth. Religion is reaching up to God.

The Kingdom is God coming down to man.

Oh man. Religion wants to escape Earth.

The Kingdom impacts, influences and changes the earth.

Jesus came down and changed the planet.

Now sin's still here, but the kingdom's here.

And now that the kingdom's here, it can't get out.

And the devil, no matter how much he tries to suppress the

church, persecute the church, tries to burn Bibles, tries to

cut off the word, he can't stop it.

He cannot squelch it. He.

Cannot stamp it out. He can do not.

It's here and it will never not be here.

And ultimately it's all that will only remain.

Are you hearing me? So you need to understand then

that all the governments of the earth, because we look at

religions and then try to equate that with our God, but God's

like, I'm not even associated with religions.

If you really want to try to see who's trying to model me, you

have to look at the governments, because the governments of the

world are attempts to achieve the goal of a perfect.

Kingdom without the necessary raw material of the Holy Ghost.

And you know what, every human heart is searching for a new and

better world. I mean, what does everyone say

we just want peace on earth? I mean, really think about it,

you know, and of our political climate, you know, if people

would quit, you know, being so divisive, right?

And would really just understand that if we really listen to

people, you, you can really start to peer in to they're

really searching for the king. And instead of being so upset

about how they're trying to find the king through sin, we should

say, you know, you're really looking for the king there.

So again, you know, when you think about the whole climate

change and people wanted to, you know, us to to lower our carbon

emission and lower these so that we can have pure water and we

can, you know, that's just people wanting a better world.

You know what they're looking for.

They're looking for the new Earth.

That's what they're looking for. Now, they don't know that.

And even them, what are they doing?

They have something within them, and they know they're gonna die.

They know this. Yet there's something about

beyond their life that they think exists somewhere, that

they want the planet. Because why are they so

concerned about humans living after them?

Why are they concerned about that?

The planet could go so bad that it wipes out all humans 'cause

that's really a pull towards an eternal thought, an eternal

thought. And if we would be more apt to

hear, instead of being divisive, we could really begin to say,

wow, you're, that's, you're, you're almost touching the

Kingdom. What do you mean I'm almost

touching the Kingdom? You know, the Lord's really

concerned about the earth. He sees a lot of stuff going on

here, too. I mean, you think oil is bad for

our planet? You think carbon emissions are

bad for our planet? You want to know the number one

thing that is destroying our planet?

It's blood. It's the.

Spilling of innocent blood. The spilling of innocent blood

will cause God to want to show up in a nation because that

talks. We're trying to clean up oil

spills and carbon when nobody's trying to clean up the spilling

of innocent blood. Now that has more contamination

in the earth. Oh, y'all don't want to hear

this? See, because the church has

dumbed itself down so much to want to go to heaven that we

don't recognize that the real root of problems is sin.

You're not going to change the planet unless you deal with the

spilling of blood. You're not going to save a

planet. This is why Jesus Christ the

Lord said Israel, I am going to dispossess all of those people

on that territory because they know I exist.

They did not repent. Their sin now has come to

fullness. I am going to get them out of

that land and dispossessed people.

God moved. Them out of the land because

they were destroying his planet with the spilling of innocent

blood. We because the church is so

uneducated and equipped to handle modern day problems, we

think our issue is climate. The wages of is.

Notice the city. Just do your own natural study.

Notice the cities that that participate in actions that are

contrary to scripture. I'm talking behaviors.

They allow these things full on. Notice how dilapidated and

destructed. Why?

Because every time they do the things that are contrary to

God's work, they are saying death come to us.

So I don't care who wants to be the next governor of Florida.

I don't care who wants to be the next president of the United

States. I don't care who wants to be the

next senator. If all they do is continue to do

policies that are contrary to the word of God with this idea

that it is peace and that it's doing more for others, guess

what? The storms are coming.

Earthquakes are going to happen, natural disasters going to

happen. Things are going to.

Occur. Why 'cause you're calling death

to you, the wages of sin is death.

And we're not dealing with the the the spilling of blood.

See, we're in a Kingdom, not a religion.

So every human heart is searching for a new and better

world. All men believe.

Listen, all men believe except for religious Christians really,

that government is the answer. And here's the thing, so does

God. God believes that government is

the answer because God never came to bring a religion but a

Kingdom. Isaiah Chapter 9, verse six and

Isaiah 9 · chapter mention

seven. You ready for some speed round

here in a minute. Isaiah Chapter 9 verse six and

Isaiah 9 · chapter mention

seven says for a child will be born to us.

Who is this child? Come on, what's his name?

What's his name? His name is what?

Come on. I need you better than this

Again. One more time.

As you understand, I have the mic.

You don't. So again, we put this on

YouTube. We want to be able to have

everybody hearing you. What's his name?

A child will be born. To us, a son will be what?

Notice the son is not born because the Son always existed

in the beginning was the word and the word was with God.

The word was God, the 14th verse of John chapter one.

And the word became and his name is So Jesus is the Son of God.

He's always existed before the account of time.

So he can't be born into the world He is given, but the suit

he's placed in is born. So a child will be born to us, a

son will be given, and the that's your Bible.

You know how many people have never read Isaiah's account?

They don't look at it because, again, they stay away from the

Old Testament anyway because it scares them.

But it says, and the government will rest on his shoulder.

Whose shoulders? Who's he?

What's his name? What's his name?

So what's resting on his shoulders?

Not a religion. Jesus never intended to bring

Christianity. He only intended to bring the

Kingdom. He doesn't say repent for

Christianity is at hand. He never said that.

In fact, I think it's only three times that Christian is

mentioned in the. Bible and all of them are by

pagans, meaning people outside of the church.

Which is their label. And Christian is not a negative

term. OK, so I'm not here to say quit

calling yourself a Christian, but be it.

Christian means to be Christ like.

That means to be like a king, like the king.

So if you're like the king, be a Christian.

But if you're not. Like the king, then you're just

putting a label on yourself that you're not.

You can wear AT shirt and not be it.

You can get a tattoo and not be it.

I mean it can be a permanent on you, a cross, a scripture and

not live it. You can wear the necklace.

I didn't matter. You can have it all in your car

doesn't matter. But it says the government will

rest on his what shoulders and his name will be called

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father.

Appearance of Pete there will be no end to the increase of his.

Or of peace on the throne of David.

Thrones are in kingdoms, not religions.

And over his Kingdom to establish it, and behold it with

justice and righteousness from then on.

And. Forever the zeal of the Lord of

hosts will accomplishes. Notice in these verses.

God believes that the answer to the world's problem is His

government. His government.

Now here's the thing about His government.

If you're going to be in His Kingdom, you must be a born

citizen of that Kingdom. You cannot immigrate there by

passing a test of your own free will.

You can't physically cross its borders.

The good news is Jesus made the way for you to become a born

citizen of His Kingdom. Are you hearing me?

Now notice the government will rest where on his shoulders?

Where are the shoulders located in the body is below the head.

You got the head and neck connects to the shoulder.

So the government rests on the shoulder.

So tells us this God's demonstration of his government

Kingdom rests with the church and most of the church is

religious, which tells me then it's really not the church.

Now why do I say that Because Jesus says this in Matthew

Matthew 16:18

chapter 16 verse 18. He said upon the revelation that

I'm the Christ said that to Peter upon the revelation upon

this rock. That is the revelation.

I'm the Christ not upon Peter. So we're not building the church

on Peter or his bones because he said.

Peter, who do you say that I am? Or he said, who do you say that

I am? And Peter says you are the

Christ, the Son of the living God.

And he said, Peter, you're blessed because my father has

revealed to you, and I'll no longer call you Simon, but

Peter, which is Little Rock. And why does he say Little Rock?

Because again, who is the big rock?

Who is the chief cornerstone? So This is why I said I'll call

you Peter or the Little Rock, because guess what?

You are a representation of me. I'm the rock, and you're a rock

like me. Because when you die to Christ,

it's no longer you who live, but Christ now lives in you, and you

get lost in him. So they should see.

When they see you, they should be seeing Jesus.

So set us upon this revelation that I am the Christ or the

King, that I will build my church.

Jesus never delegated the building of his church to a

pastor or an apostle or a missionary or an evangelist or a

prophet or a teacher. Jesus says I'll be on the throne

in heaven, but I'm active in my church.

And if he's building the church, guess what?

That church is going to be talking about the Kingdom,

because that's all Jesus preached.

I said that's all he preached. And it says there'll be no end

to the increase. Is his Kingdom in here today?

So the Kingdom mandate runs throughout the entire Bible.

The re establishment to humanity started with Abram, which was

not a religion but a nation. You're ready for speed realm.

OK 'cause we're going to baptize some people today.

I'm going to give you a quick little speed round Genesis

Genesis 12 · chapter mention

chapter 12. Let's go.

Let's take a trip through the Bible because we understand

this. In Genesis 3, when Adam fell

from demand, the Lord said, Adam, what'd you do?

And as he said, where are you? And we understand that he knew

where he is because he's omnipresent.

He's all knowing, omniscient. So it's not like he doesn't know

he's eating the fruit, but he says, where are you?

Which means, what position are you in now?

Because you're sure not in dominion, right?

And so Adam blames God and says, well, it's that woman you gave

me. She ate the fruit and gave it to

me. He could have said, well, you

were there listening to the conversation and let her eat it

and didn't try to say anything. But he didn't say that, did he?

He said, Eve, what'd you do now? Eve tells the truth.

She said I was deceived because she was by the serpent and I

ate. He said I'll come back to both

of y'all. Then he gets to the serpent.

He doesn't say. What have you done?

No, no, no. What have you done?

He's like, this is what's going to happen, he said.

This is what's going to happen, he said.

I have spoken my word, and my word does not return unto me

void. In essence, whatever my word

says, the ability for that word to come to pass will always come

to pass. So before you showed up, I said,

let's make man in our image according to our notness, and

let them rule. Adam now has eaten the fruit,

abdicated his throne, and given it to the devil, giving him

rulership on the planet. So God is not in control of

everything on planet earth. That is a religious thought.

God's in control of everything. No, he's not.

He's not in control of what the devil's doing.

You know what God's literally in control of?

His word. His word.

He's not in control of your word and he's not controlling your

word because if he could control your word, he would cause you to

call him Lord and then none would go to the lake of fire.

But he can't control you because love doesn't control you.

Oh, y'all don't want to hear this?

That's fine because we want to believe God's in control.

He's in control of His word, and if you do His word, he'll have

that word come to pass. So now he says, here's the

problem. Adam has fallen from dominion.

Now when he sleeps with his wife and they have children, they'll

produce after your kind, which means rebellion.

That's not my kind. So I'm going to have my con.

And since the woman was honest, I can't use the man to

participate. I'm going to show up again with

my seed in a virgin woman. And when he gets in the planet

he will crush your head. Because I gave dominion to man,

I must now send my son as a man 'cause that's the legal entrance

into the earth. And if it if a man lost the

dominion, then it requires a. A man to get the dominion, and I

must become a man in order to do that.

This is why Jesus has to come, because if Jesus, if God could

just forgive, then why didn't he just say, well, Adam, I forgive

you. You've never made a mistake,

son. You've never made a mistake.

This first one, because God said this Adam, if you eat the fruit,

he does what he says because he's a king.

His whole Kingdom is on his ability to do his word.

If you eat the fruit, you're going to die.

Did he eat the fruit? So is death there?

Well, there's a problem. Death has to be paid.

He can't sweep it under the rug. So he says there's only one

payment made. There's only one thing that can

be done to pay the penalty. That's why the Bible says when

you're born again, what are you? Come on, what are you?

No, you have been ransomed. You have been bought with a Now

most believers don't see it this way because we love free.

Imagine Jesus on the cross right now.

He's beaten so bad you cannot tell.

He's a man. Still has a crown of thorns

shoved on his head. He's been stripped of his

clothes. Flesh is ripped off his back,

sides, face, arms, and he's hanging there and blood's just

pouring down. He stretched all out and blood's

flowing. He dies.

They Pierce his side, see it as so, and we don't hear about him

for three days, but on the third day he comes and he's carrying

something. He's got to take it to heaven.

It's called payment. See, when we look at the cross,

we don't see that that's a financial transaction.

That's a payment of a debt. So it may be free for you to

call on the name of the Lord, but it cost God his Son, and his

blood was a price. It says He redeemed you not with

an imperishable, with a perishable item called silver

and gold, but with the precious blood of Jesus.

And I am shocked at Christians who get born again and have no

value for the full price of the blood.

You know what we call those people whose parents have a lot

of money and they give them everything they want and they

don't value it spoiled. And the US church has created

spoiled believers. And us that aren't in that

natural family, we're like, man, we would be wait.

I mean, we would really appreciate it.

I mean, they don't even value. Well, how many of us don't even

value because again, we've made our Jesus a religion instead of

a Kingdom. And we'll tell the King, maybe

I'll come, maybe I won't. Maybe I'll do what you say,

maybe I don't just Remember Me when I die, that I asked you to

come into my heart and save me. Now you make sure you do that.

You better do your part in the Lord's light.

Well, do your part. You called me Lord to get into

this thing that means supreme authority.

That's not a religious term. Now you do your.

Part. Because I sure did my part and

I'll never not do my part. So the Lord says I'll have a

pathway for man to have dominion because what I said has the

ability to come to pass. And at this point He has

fulfilled that through the death, burial, resurrection of

Jesus. That word is in play right now.

All who call on the name of the Lord will be saved.

And guess what, you will be. You will have, you will have

been given dominion again so that you can rule and reign

while you're in the earth and God's word has come to pass.

But for those who do not call on the name, guess what?

You also get what the word said. If you don't do what I say,

you're going to die, and people will be cast into the lake of

fire, even though the blood has been paid to forgive them.

You ready for speed round? Here we go.

I'm going to do this in 10 minutes.

Genesis 12, one through 3, says this.

Now the Lord said to Abram, go forth from your country and from

your relatives, and from your father's house to a land which I

will show you, and I will make you a great what nation, not a

religion. And I'll bless you and make you

a your name great, and you shall be a blessing.

And I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse

you. And then and you, all the

families of the earth will be blessed.

So Abram gets a name change to Abraham.

Abraham means the father of many nations, not the father of many

religions or the father of a religion that ultimately will

allow people to be born again and get into heaven.

His name is Abraham, a father of many nations.

Again, because it's always been about a king, his Kingdom and

his royal offspring. Abraham gives birth to a boy

named Isaac. Isaac is a covenant child that

the Lord says will be his covenant.

But ultimately he said, now go kill your son.

And he does that because he needs to know, does Abraham

actually love me? And so when he would not

withhold his own son, but was with full intent willing to kill

him, the Lord stopped the whole thing.

He said, I know I have your whole heart.

You're willing to do whatever I say, but it's not your son that

has to die. I'll send mine later.

That boy Isaac gives birth to another son by the name of

Jacob. Jacob wrestles with the Lord and

gets a new name called Israel. Israel has twelve sons that

become tribes of a nation, and that nation is in our earth

still today. And God was the king of this

nation. He delivered them out of Egypt.

He was a nation deliverer. He pulled His nation out of an

oppressive nation which is a type and shadow of us, coming

out of the domain of darkness into the Kingdom of His beloved

Son. And so he took this nation,

brought them into a place where they were to conquer their

enemies. Live in a land that flow with

milk and honey. That is the new birth experience

while you're on the earth, because there are no giants in

heaven, there is no sickness and disease in heaven.

There is no thing to cast out. That is earth impact.

That is what it looks like. When the nation of God's Kingdom

goes into the world with its influence, it will overcome that

place and move things out and show He was showing the world.

If you will follow me like this nation does, you'll be blessed

going in, blessed going out. You'll be the head and not the

tail. It was always about a Kingdom,

but he told that nation you can't do what you want to do.

But eventually because they were not born of the Spirit, they

looked with their eyes instead of listening with their hearts.

They said we want to see our king.

And we get into first Samuel chapter 8, verse 7, where we

1 Samuel 8:7

find that Samuel the prophet is talking to the Lord concerning

this problematic issue. That this whole nation who has

followed the Lord and his voice in the voice of the prophets to

conquer and land and take possession and be blessed, now

says we want to see our king. And he says, Samuel, give the

people what they want, for they have rejected me as king, not

you. So the Lord calls himself king

in this context, because the Bible's always been about a

king, his Kingdom and his royal offspring.

We see in Psalms 24/7 through 10.

He says, lift up your head, O gates, and be lifted up, O

ancient doors, the that the king of glory may come in.

Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the

Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates, and

lift them up, O ancient doors, that the king of glory may come

in. Who is the king of glory?

The Lord of post? He is the king of glory.

Psalms 47, seven For God is king of all the earth.

Sing praises with understanding. Daniel communicates to

Nebuchadnezzar of a statue that he had in a dream.

And he says the in there are these different layers of of,

of, of metals. And then finally we'll get to

some feet with some metal and clay, which is iron and clay

mixed together. But a rock is going to be made

without hands. Who is that rock?

His name's Jesus, and Jesus comes and crushes every

government. Every one of those layers

represented not religions, not other belief systems, but

governments, he said. My Kingdom is going to come and

crush every other government. And it says Then that rock

turned into a great mountain and took over the whole planet.

Here's the thing. The Kingdom of God is a global

takeover. Zechariah 99 says rejoice

greatly, old daughter of Zion, shout in triumph.

Old daughter of Jerusalem, behold, your king is coming to

you. He is just an endowed with

salvation, humble and mounted on a donkey, even on a cult, the

foal of a donkey. The whole old covenant is as

this context of what a king would look like with a nation

who obeyed him. So when we look at the Old

Testament, it's not just useless information what it is, it's our

history book of a model of what God wanted to do as a king over

a group of people who would obey him, which would demonstrate I

love you. And it shows them that they

would be extremely blessed. But if they rebelled against

their king, then they would be overtaken by other governments

are the enemy. Now we Fast forward into the new

covenant and when we get to the new covenant, notice in Luke

chapter one verse 30 and 33, it's not ushering in

Christianity or religion. It says the Angel says to Mary,

do not be afraid, for you have found favor with God.

And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and

you shall name him what? Come on, what's his name?

Only got 5 minutes. He will be great and you shall

call him son of the most High. The Lord God will give him the

what throne of his father David was David over a religion?

He was over a what Kingdom Thrones are in Kingdom and he

will what reign over the House of Jacob Forever and his and his

and his will have no end. Jesus did not come to bring

Christianity, He came to bring the Kingdom back to the earth

where man could get in this Kingdom.

In Matthew chapter 2, verse one and two says now after Jesus was

Matthew 2 · chapter mention

born in Bethlehem of Judea and the days of Herod the king Magi

from the east, that's wise men arrived in Jerusalem saying

where is he who has been born king of the Jews?

We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.

So who did the wise men come to see?

Not the new religious leader, not the new religion to follow.

They came seeking a government. Why did these people come and

where were they coming from? They came from the east and if

you study this, they came from where?

The original Babylon on was that Daniel was a captive from Israel

and put in Babylon where he said to Nebuchadnezzar, because he

was known as the seer who had a contact with God and his God was

better than any God and he had insight into dreams and he

prophesied about that statue. And that whole verbal prophecy

went down century after century after century that these wise

men are astrologers are waiting for that day.

And when the Star of David showed up, they said the king is

here, whoa, the king is here, the King's here, let's pack the

bags man, let's go. The same star the shepherd saw

on the night he was born. These guys were about two years

away on foot and by the time they get there, Jesus is a child

in another house and they brought gifts, 'cause you don't

come to a king empty handed. And they laid down their

treasures and bowed down before the king.

They did not come to seek a religion.

And Luke 443 he says, but he said, I must preach the Kingdom

of God to the other cities, for I was sent for this purpose.

Jesus wasn't sent just to die for your sins, He sent to

proclaim His Kingdom. He goes on and says this in

Matthew 417. From that time Jesus began to

preach thee and repent, which means change your thinking.

It's not a religious word. The Kingdom of heaven is at

hand. We've already said in Matthew 69

and 10, your Kingdom come, your will be done on earth.

Jesus everywhere he went. You can look it up for yourself

in the four Gospels about 133 times when Jesus was publicly

preaching, he said the Kingdom of heaven is like this and the

Kingdom of God is like that. And he did parables that were

only showing the Kingdom. The Bible's about a king, his

Kingdom and his role offspring. In John chapter 18, verse 33 to

John 18:33–37

37, Pilot who is a governor for Rome, so he understands

government. He goes to Jesus says, are you

the king of the Jews? Didn't ask him what's this

religion you spreading around among your people?

Jesus said, are you saying this on your own initiative?

Did others tell you about me? Which means he's not refuting

that statement. Pilate says I'm not a Jew.

Am I Your own nation and the chief priests delivered to me.

What have you done then? Jesus says this.

My Kingdom is not of this world. Now, that doesn't mean it's not

in the planet. The word world here is not

earth. It means systems that operate.

So what Jesus is saying to my Kingdom does not function like

your kingdoms. He said if my Kingdom were of

this world, This is why we know this, look what it says, then my

service would be fighting so that I would not be handed over

the Jews. Meaning if my Kingdom functioned

like the world's kingdoms, made no mistake, my army would win.

What did he tell Peter in the garden after he cut off the the

high priest servants ear? He said don't you know I could

call a legion of angels down right now?

Have you not read the Bible where one Angel showed up back

in the old covenant and killed 185,000 Midianites by himself?

That the prophet Elijah said Lord open up my servants eyes so

he can see there's more with me than this natural army that has

come to take me. And he showed him on the

mountainside all of these angels with flaming sores and in

Chariots. They were there to rout that

natural army at a word from the prophet.

Woo glory. You understand we have a big

army. I said we have a big army.

It's a myriad, a myriad of thousands upon thousands.

I mean, angels could be dispatched.

I'm telling you, the planet doesn't have a chance.

I don't care about nuclear power.

We have angels. Oh my gosh.

So he goes on and says this. He says, but my Kingdom is not

of this realm, meaning we don't function this way.

He goes on and says Pilate says, so you are king.

Jesus says, you say, see we love Savior Jesus because Savior is

what he did for us. He saved.

Us. But if Adam had never eaten the

fruit, he never would have come to save, because there had been

nothing to be saved. But you know what?

He's always been Lord, He's always been supreme in

authority, He's always been king.

He says, you say correctly that I'm a king.

For this I have been been born, and for this I've come into the

world to testify the truth. Everyone who hears the truth

hears my voice. Now Jesus has died on the cross

and risen from the dead. You think if the message of the

gospel is about where are you going to go when you die?

This is the time to preach that gospel.

Acts chapter one, verse 3. To these.

He presented himself alive after a suffering with many convincing

proof appearing to them over a period of 40 days and Speaking

of things concerning the Kingdom of God.

Then they asked him is it the time for the Kingdom?

He said it's not for you to know that but you going to receive

power. Jesus did not say just tell

everybody ask them when you go out and preach where they going

to go when they die. You will not find that in the

book of Acts. In fact, Acts chapter 20 verses

Acts 20:25

25 and 27. Paul who wrote over half of the

New Testament. What did he preach?

He says, now behold, I know that all of you among whom I went

about preaching, what? What do you preach?

The Kingdom will no longer see my face.

Therefore I testified you to this day that I'm innocent of

the blood of all men, for I did not shrink from declaring to you

the whole purpose of God. Hebrews chapter 12 verse 28.

Hebrews 12:28

Therefore, since we receive a Kingdom which cannot be shaken,

let us show gratitude by which we offer to God an acceptable

service with reverence in our first Timothy chapter 6 verse

1 Timothy 6:15

15. He who is blessed.

And only sovereign ruler, the king of kings and the Lord of

Lords, who are kings of the king, who are kings of the king,

who are Lords of the Lord, We are first Peter 29 But you are a

chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for

God's own possession, so that you may proclaim the

excellencies of him who called him out of darkness into Marvel

site. And the last passage of

Scripture I will give to you today.

Because we started in Genesis and we have hit Revelations

because the Bible's about a king, his Kingdom and his royal

offspring. It's not a religion.

And 21 verse one and two, it says this.

Then I saw this is after the tribulation, the rapture of the

Church, the great Tribulation. This is after Jesus Christ comes

back on a horse with his Saints and sets up a physical Kingdom

that everyone can see and rules there for 1000 years while the

devil has been thrown into a bottomless pit during that

duration of which after that duration of 1000 years.

You want to know what 1000 years looks like?

What year are we in 2020? What's 1000 years from now?

What will it be? 3034 or 24/30/24?

Which means the planet's not over when you leave.

Most believers don't even think like.

This. We know that planet Earth will

arrive to the year 3024 because it's 2034.

We know this now. It depends on when Jesus is

catching away the church and we come back.

The minute we come back with Jesus, the clock of 1000 years

start. So if that's 2033, then guess

what? We know the plan is going to go

on, but we'll see a calendar that says 3033 and you'll be

here. But after that, he'll release

the devil for a short time. He'll rally the people on the

earth that are like us now. They'll go against Jesus and us

at the holy city, Jerusalem, the capital of the world.

Jerusalem is the capital of the world.

Let me just say, Jerusalem will never fall.

It will be ambushed, it will be attacked, but it will never fall

'cause it is the capital of the world.

D CS got nothing on Jerusalem. It's the capital of the world

after that attack, and it doesn't amount to nothing.

He cast the devil in the lake of fire, and then he takes care of

everyone that has been dead without Christ and throws him to

the lake of fire. And then the false prophet and

the beast are all there and all the angels that he judged.

Everything's said and done judged.

Then I saw a new heaven and a new.

So if we're going to live in heaven forever, why is there

another planet for the 1st heaven and the first earth

passed away and there's no longer any sea.

And I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem.

What was it doing coming What down out of heaven made ready as

a bride adorn for her husband? It's coming down out of heaven.

Verse 23 And the city has no need of the sun or the moon to

shine in it, for the glory of the Lord has illuminated, and

its lamp is the Lamb and the nations.

Will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring

their glory into it. Hallelujah, because the Bible is

about a king, his Kingdom, and his royal offspring.

Let's pray, Father, we love you and we honor you and thank you.
