The Kingdom of God Pt 2 24.09.23

All right, let's pray, Father Way, thank you so much for helping

us today. Well, thank you that you've brought us close to your presence.

Thank you for the opportunity to hear you once again. You pray that

you guide us into all truth by your mighty holy Spirit Jesus Name. Amen.

Amen, Amen, Oh you borrowed your mouth this morning. Amen,

amazing. Shall we give God praise for the life of our pastor revend Roun.

I refuse to mention the sat name. I refuse, And let's give

God praise for the life of our pastor. Pastor the Aggreshop Nicholas, Uncle

Williams, he's the real pastor, I say, amen. Please take your

seats. You're looking good this morning, all right, and you're welcome to

church. We are continuing a series on the Kingdom of God, all right,

and last week we started discussing things that will help us to understand the

Kingdom of God. Now you have to know this, and it's very important

that in the Kingdom of God, they are important things and there are more

important things. There is nothing unimportant in the Kingdom. There's nothing that is

unimportant, but there are things that are more important than others. Right,

and just has mentioned some of them in Marthy chapter twenty three, in verse

twenty three, just as what's talking about a whole lot of issues, And

he pointed out in the twenty three of Marthe twenty three he said, war

ont u scribes and pharisees, because you please use King James all the time.

Okay, unless I say changes, then you change it King James standard.

He says, war onto your scribes and pharasies because you pay tithe on

little things like mint and earnest and cumin, and you ignore weightier matters.

You know, so there are things that are weightier, and there are things

that are weightier. We know where its comparative and what what if you have

a wed, you have an adverb and you have a comparative form of that.

Abbeb will be the next one. Hey, what schools have you been

attending in the place? Superlative or it depends on the school you're attended.

That will also determine how you pronounce it. You can say superlative, you

can also say superlative. Same thing is this, Michelle Obarbara? This is

Michelle right, Michelle obarbera, Michel all right? Why they're not happy?

This morning. Mhm right, So the advert is weighty. What's an adverb?

Let's not go there, but I will be a and the advert is

weighty. What would be the comparative form? What will be the comparative form

of weighty? Amazing? Comparative weighty? Okay, we just said the adverbs,

comparative forms of adverbs, and apality forms of what's her name? Mommy?

Mommy? You may not like me much when you see them preaching.

You may not come to change because this is how I'll be doing. What

is the comparative form of weighty? Yes? Waited? The comparative form what's

your name? What's your name, Cynthia? You should have started at the

back, because that's you're starting the front. You look at you and now

I'm asking you questions. Was a comparative form of weighty You're forgotten? Yes,

comparative Wait, what's your name? Benjamin's a competitive form of weighty?

Ah? Daniella was a competive form of waiting. Waight, tier, Oh,

I think it's on a bottle? Wait tier, wait tier. This

has said these are the weightier matters of the law, meaning you have something

big, something has to be bigger. And then we have the biggest,

isn't it. That's what we mean by words and competitive and superlative weight tier.

And this has said there are things that are important, such as tithe.

Tithing is important, but it'sactly things that are more important than tithing.

And look at them. Judgment, messy and faith. They are more important.

They are. I mean, these are things that are very serious.

And in first Coming after thirteen, verstating the Bible says whenever everything is finished,

when everything is done, there are three things that we mean. Look

when you're reading the Bible and pay attention to some of these things, because

it would define your whole life. It would define your Christian life. Because

one of the errors in Christianity is we like to minor on major things,

and we like to major on minor things, things that are not important.

We blow it up someone and talk about this someone and things that are not

important. Hey, I mean, that's are preaching a video. Things that

are important. We mentioned it once or twice and we escape. It's an

error. Three things that we mean Marthy chapter and first Coincience after thirteen and

restecting there is faith, hope, and love. See now, these are

the three things that we mean faith, hope, and love, these three.

But the greatest of this, the Bible says, is love. You

may not hear the message of love preached a lot. And when we say

love, your mind goes straight. It's too relationships laugh always a laugh.

Than your mind has flown away to relationships. But that's not all, it

says, A part of it right, And the Bible says that is the

greatest of everything. Everything will pass away, everything will go away except laugh.

So there are things that are more important in Christianity. The single most

important thing that encapsulates all these things is what we are studying, the Kingdom

of God. In fact, when you studied the Bible, the Bible says

that was the main message of Jesus. I had a certain preachers say sometime

ago that Jesus preached more on money than he preached on anything else. It

is one of the most false statements I've heard in my life. And I

don't even know where people get some of these things from. I don't even

I don't know what Bible they're reading. Really, Jesus pread more money than

anything else. Hey, I must be reading some other book. Jesus did

not preach mom The single most prevalent message of Jesus's career. What's this called

the Kingdom of God. Matthew chapter four and the seventeen. From that time

Jesus started preaching what was his message, repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is

at and that was the verse twenty three says. So he went from place

to place, from synagogue to synagogue, and he was preaching everything about the

Gospel of the Kingdom. That is what Jesus was preaching. All this is

the only thing he preached. Everything Jesus did was about the Kingdom, the

Kingdom, the Kingdom, the Kingdom. So if there's anything you need to

know. In fact, in Matthew chapter twenty four, we talked about the

end time. One of the key markers of the end time. Jesus said,

you hear of rumors of war. You hear of wars you have eight.

You hear of a nation wising up against nation. And he said that

one thing that will happen right before Jus comes is that he says the Gospel

of the Kingdom will be preached everywhere. The Gospel of the Kingdom is very

particular, and if you think it is not particular, you should read your

Bible again, because there's something called the Gospel of Peace. It's not the

same as the Gospel of the Kingdom. It is part of it. It

is a subset of the Gospel of the Kingdom, but it is more specified.

It's just like saying biology, and then in the biology saying biooartist biology.

What's is biology? The study of what? What life started? Bios

it means life and logic logy I means study. Okay, Daniella. What

is psychology? The study of psychology? Psycho? Yes, the study of

the mind. I want to give you one more. But why is the

guy who normally sits assigned student two, normally with the glasses? Why is

seen here today? Okay, no problem. So it's the same biology,

right, biology the study of life. Everything life is biology. You can

include in biology. But inside biology you can zoom in on one aspect and

say you're studying plants life. What would that be If you're studying just plants

life, what would that be called? Huh? Botany? What's your name,

Selena, God bless you? Botany? How about animal life? Animal

life is what zoology? Chilte people? Yeah, see you we are not

joking in the church at all listen. You can be in action chapel and

not be in love with learning. We must move and go to another church.

Over here we learn, we learn a lot, and we learn about

everything right. The Gospel of the Kingdom, the Gospel of Peace, the

Gospel of the preparation of people, all of these things as are part of

the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. And this was Jesus's message, the

Gospel of the Kingdom. Now, the Gospel of the Kingdom became necesship because

something called religion had entered. When Jesus came, he started preaching about the

Gospel because religion had entered. Religion was not before, was not there before.

Religion was necessitated by sin because human being sinned. We had to now

invent religion so that we can try to connect to God. And so far,

there are many religions. There's so many religions. There's Islam, there

Sikhism, there's Judaism, there's Buddhism, there's Taoism, there's there are so

many religions, and religions come. One of the main aspects, or one

of the main characteristics of a religion is that he has a lot of rules,

rules, rules, rules, laws plenty. That is what a religion

is marked by a kingdom. On the other hand, it's not like a

religion. A kingdom talks about governments. It talks about a way of life.

A kingdom talks about a way of life. And last week in the

second service us asking some of you how many kingdoms you know about, and

when we preach about the Kingdom the Gospel of the Kingdom. If you're not

somebody who is familiar with the way a kingdom runs, you may not really

understand, or you may have a hard time understanding. A kingdom is not

like a democracy. See what we have here in Ghana is a democracy.

So when I say the Gospel of the Kingdom, if you are living in

a place like Bhutan, or Saudi Arabia or Lechstein, letstein Is, it's

a monarchy. It's a pure monarchy. Bhutan is an absolute monarchy. Saudi

Arabia is the most totalitarian country in the world. It's an absolute monarchy.

They don't have parliament, they don't have any of the things that republics have.

It's a total monarchy. What the king says is what stands finish and

of story. Another total monarchy, the only African totalitarian monarchy is Swartini.

Have you heard of Swartini or Switzerland? There used to because God Swatini.

There's a man there, God king in Swati, the tad he's a king.

Whatever he says, it's what stands. If he wakes up today and

says, no more court in the country olive banko, that is it is

finished. No more if you find if you find you drinking, court is

you are going to jail. That is what having to read the Bible and

seeing that's in terms of kings like Nebo, Cardneza and Darius, they made

very strange laws. When the king wake up one day and say I've made

the gods start to everybody should or else you're going to die. That's it.

There's no we are not voting on it. The king said, it

is happening. The King said, nobody's friend to any other person except me.

I'm the only one who can pay to I catch you print to another

person who are into the lion's day. That's how Daniel in the day.

It was because the king had said something. The king had signed a degree

that proclaimed that no more prayer to anybody for the next twenty one days accept

him. So when you understand the way a kingdom will prates, it will

bring you closer to understanding the gospel of the kingdom. All right, what

you need to understand again is that God is a king. God was the

first king. He's the first king. He's called the King of Glory and

the King of kings. He was the first king. And what happens in

the kingdom is what happens in the Kingdom of God. God is a king.

His word in the kingdom is what stands. Now. You need to

understand these things before we start talking about the general issues and the powables,

because if you don't understand these things, you'll be confused in the middle.

Right, there's something called kingdom concept. Writes this down kingdom concept. Kingdom

comes kingdom concept. When we say kingdom concept, what we're trying to say

is what makes a kingdom a kingdom? What's the concept of the kingdom?

Now? There are different types of government, right, There are different types

of rulerships. One of the ancient types of rulership is something called feudalism f

e U D A, L I S M. Feudalism. Okay, feudalism.

That's the type of government where whoever owns more land was powerful. Okay,

So when you have a lot of land, When you own a lot

of land, you own the land. You own the things on the land

too. That is a type of government feudalism. All right, have you

been able to spell it? Feu d A l I s M feu d

a l I s M feudalism. Let me pause here and say something to

you. Now, when you listen to a message, okay, when you

listen to it once, twice, three times, it sticks, but you

don't retain more. You don't retain a lot. In fact, there's something

called pyramid of learning. If you go, we can go and google,

it's pyramid of learning. When you listen to me talking to you like this

like a lecture, their retention how much you're able to remember is five percent

of everything I'm saying. Okay, these are passive ways of teaching. When

you when you write, when you listen and you write, you are able

to retain sixty eight percent. Do you see the difference? You just listen?

How many five percent? When you listen and you write, how much

do you retain sixty eight percent? It's a very big difference. And if

you are able to put it into practice, do something about it, experiment

with it, it increases shoots up to eighty percent. Eight is between eighty

to ninety percent. When you practicalize it, you know you do something with

it. And when you listen and listen and listen, you listen more than

seven times. This is the reason is should listen to podcast. You listen

to the same message over and over and over seven times and above you are

able to retain ninety percent. This is also the reason you should the announcements

we make listen to podcast. It's not for funal it's because of these things.

Because you can come to church are and not be changed. You can

come to church ah and nothing will happen to you. Your life will not

show anything. And in the end you'll be frustrated because you say that thing

doesn't work. I mean, why you don't even remember what you are told?

And the reason you don't remember is that and I'm on you. The

reason you don't remember is that you don't write anything. You don't write.

So whether you are listening to a message at church, or you're listening to

a message at home while you're in class, as teaching always right. Okay,

okay, all right, back to the message of the kingdom. Second

type of the government. Second type of government is called dictatorship. You've heard

of this one, right, dictatorship. Dictatorship is when it is inspired actually

by divine authority. There are some people who believe that they've been born to

rule, so they rule and they never get down here, they never stop,

and they stop everyone else from ruling. That's dictatorship. Okay, when

you are a dictator, you go on and no, no, no,

no, no no, you don't want to stop and dictatorship. Monarchy is

a type of dictatorship. You just rude for life. You're in power till

you die. That's dictatorship. You determine everything, you control everything. A

dictator can be elected. A dictator can also be by birth, right,

so kings by birth. Some kings are elected certain countries the kings are elected.

Right. Then. A third type of government that you should know is

a democracy. What is the democracy? They said, it's government of the

people, by the people, and for the people. We live in a

democracy. We know it is not true, but okay, you just write

it democracy. One of the key markets of a democracy is that the leader

is voted into power, and everything is done by concerns us. Everybody has

to agree to what we are doing. The danger of democracy is that if

the majority agree on something bad or something wrong, it stands. So for

instance, in America, it's because the democracy they have all agreed that if

a man minus another man is okay, so it's a laws. It's past.

That's the foolishness of democracy. All of us can can agree today that

all women must be relegated to the background, and because majority have the say,

it will become a law. Why that's a democracy. Then there's something

called communism. You don't need this. One's communism, socialism, you don't

need this one's right. I think it's are the basic ones that I need.

Communism is like a combination of feudalism and detatorship, but without God.

The one of the main markers of communism is that they remove God from the

equation. If you've heard of US or China currently, it's a communist state.

China and Korea. North Korea is also a communist state. They do

everything like a dictatorship, and they strongly against God. They don't like anything

about God. They're against religion, right now. My point is this,

the Gospel of the Kingdom is a totalitarian gospel. Over here in the Kingdom

of God, God is a king. What that means is that His word

is law, His word is the rule. His word is what we go

by. This is what Jesus came to tell us. Let me take you

again back to the beginning when God made us. God made us in his

image and his likeness. Joan us, do you remember God made us in

his image and his likeness. And God made us again. I've heard this

a lot. God made us to worship. God made us too, It's

not true. Read the Bible well. The reason, the one and only

reason God created us was to rule. Finish. The Bible says God did

not sign ren onto the earth because there was no man to manage the e,

and so he made man. The creation of man was necessitated by the

need for rulership, leadership, and management. That's why God made man.

And when God made man, God made man to be like himself the way

he was. Is why he wanted a man to be. Why because he's

a king. So God made Adam and if to be. People were taken

in care of the heath, and God made man in his image and his

likeness. When we say the image, when we say God's image, what

we mean is his nature, his character, his morality. So we are

made to have the nature of God, the character of God, and the

morality of God. We are like him. And the likeness of God means

his functionality, how he functions. We are made to function like God.

If you are not functioning like God, we are malfunctioning. How does God

function? God functions in two ways. God functions by love and by faith.

Okay, that's how God functions. God functions by love. God functions

by love. That's who he is. Love is his very nature. So

if you don't have love first joint Chapter four evers eight him or does he

say? First? Eight beloved, let us love, for laugh is of

God. He who does not love does no God. He who loves knows

God. Because God is love four and eight eight eight for invests for invest

eight. Yes, because God is love. God is God. Doesn't have

love. God doesn't show love. He is love. That's what he's made

of. In fact, if you don't have love, your faith is weathless.

It will not wake. Your faith only works by love. Have you

heard that before Galatians after five and six. Therefore, in Christ, nothing

prevalid nor nothing matters, whether it's a concesition or as a composition, but

faith which works by love, Faith which works by love. Galicianus after five

and six. For in Jesus Christ not as a consition of valid anything,

nor as a consition, but faith which works by love. If you don't

have love, your faith will not even work properly, do not work.

So if you are here and you are someone who wishing to hate chad,

you don't like people, you don't like smiling, you don't have the characteristics

of love, you are malfunctioning because you're supposed to function like God. And

God functions by love. That's who he is. Then God also functions by

faith. God fancts is by faith. How do we see faith is by

talking? God talks a lot. So you see in Genesis one, God

was talking the whole time. In Creation God was talking Romans upter four and

there's seventeen. It says God, which picked those things which be not as

though the way. That's how he is, God who kay kids the death

and colored those things which be not as though the way. God functions by

speech, by faith. He talks. He says a lot of things.

So if you're Christian and you are not talking, you're mauthfunctioning. Again,

you are mauthfunctioning. You don't talk, you don't say anything. The Bible

said, God said, God said Genesis aapter one, the Christian story Genesis

after one invent three, and God said Genesis one six. God said Genesis

vers nine. God said, verse eleven. God said verse fourteen. God

said, there's twenty. God said, there's twenty four. God said,

there's twenty six. God said there's sweaty nine. God said again again,

but you don't say anything. You don't say anything. When we come to

church, we say say amen, you sit down. You don't say anything.

Let's sing, let's raise your hands. You don't open your mind.

You know what you are doing is you will get nothing because the world was

created by the word of God. Your words creates your own world. I

grad you understand when you don't talk, you're sitting on pull us. After

eighteen, invest twenty one. Death and life are in the power of the

tongue. Or after three and thest tend let the weak say, you see

look at it, look at daughter. After investing the Bible says, even

when you're a weak, don't say it. Turn your plowshares into sorts,

and you're pulling hooks into spears. Even though you're weak, don't say it.

Say I am strong. Raise your right hand, say I'm strong.

Look at look at what you're doing. Now, I'm strong. What kind

of fam is this? I've not eating? I am strong, I am

strong, I am strong, and I am strong. Amen. You should

be talking all the time. You should be talking all the time time,

all the time. Someone was saving Inverst. Two. Let the redeem of

the Lord say so. Let them say it. Don't say it to you,

Josh chapter one, say the Buddists become the loss and already part out

of your mouth. Keep saying it, keep saying it. You have to

keep saying it. So this is how God functions. Right. If you

don't function like this, you are malfunctioning. This is what Jesus came to

restore when we said the Gospel of the Kingdom. This is it, though,

this is it. That you are made in the image and the likeness

of God, and you're supposed to be functioning like him, sing put us

far away. And when Jesus came He didn't exactly put it like this.

He put it in parables. He came in, he told stories. He

came in, he was telling stories. He wanted to say things that we

can relate to so that we can get the thing that he's trying to say.

Let's look at one or two of these parables and then we call it

a day. Or do you think Matthew chapter thirteen and Matthew chapter thirteen when

you go read the whole chapter? Okay? Because the problems they are,

it's full of probles. Let's start reading from which of the probles do you

think? Which you look at? Which proble did we look at last week?

The problem of the souler? Okay, so then we can look at

that. Now, let's look at the next puble, the problem of the

Witch and taste the seven. Go to the seventh please seventeen. Are you

know you're going home? Okay? Market chapter thirteen. Let's star from the

twenty four. Another proble puts it forth on to them, saying, the

kingdom of heaven. So what is he talking about the kingdom? And he's

trying to help you understand what the kingdom of heaven is like? What the

Kingdom of God is like and in said the kingdom of Heaven is like a

man that sold good seed in the field. That's twenty five. But one

man slept, Huh, his enemy? Whose enemy? The man who sold

the good seed? His enemy came and sold tears among the wheat and went

his way. That's twenty six. But when the blade was sprung up,

the blade over here is the correct seed. Okay, when it sprung up

and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tears. Also, how many know

this? Probable? You've had this problem before? Have you bothered to find

out what tears look like? A tear, what a tail looks like?

You can't move forward behaving like this. When you see things, you have

to look them up. Okay, when you when you put wheat on the

left and you put a tear on the right, you can't You can't see

much difference. It looks very similar. So the first one is that they

could they could recognize that, no, this is no wit, this is

something else. Anyway, the twenty seven, So the servants of the householder

came and said on him, said, did you not so good? Seat

in the field? From where did the test come? Eight? Then he

said onto them, and enemy has done this, the seventh said onto him,

will you then that we go and gather them up twenty nine? But

he said, no, let's while you gather up the test, you root

up also the witch with them a stety. Let's both grow together until the

harvest. And in the time of harvest, I will say to the ripest,

gather you together. First the tests, bind them in bandles to bend

them, but gather the wit into my band Did you understand anything we just

read? Did you understand the problem? Okay? So just as we're saying

that a guy went to sew okay, a guy, a man went to

sea, and when he went to saw, he saw good seed. And

after he saw the good city, he went away. And in the night,

when they were sleeping, another person came who was identified to be the

man who saw the good city his enemy, and he came to saw his

own seed. And those seeds were tests, and these wits were growing with

the whitt. When his servants came to check on the wits, they saw

that, ah, the weight is going, but also something else is growing

that they didn't plant. So they went back to the master and said,

Master, we went to check on the whit today and we see that the

thing is going, but something else is also growing. And the master quickly

said this is the work of the enemy. And so they said, so

what should we do do? Should we go back and remove them? He

said, no, no, no, no, leave it alone, because

in your attempts to pull up the wits, you may end up pulling up

some of the whitt the correct one as also leave it alone, and later

on, when the thing is mature, pull all of them up. Now

you can pull it up, but as you are harvesting sorted so that there

will be a difference between a wit and a test. And when you find

a test bandle it up and burn it. And that's what the wit gather

and put it in my in storehouse capish. Everything is clay now moved to

Vest thirty six because I won't rack my brain and explain it. This has

explained it for us. Okay, use Enalty because the lack of investory of

Cacus is affecting the reading. You don't understand. You must buy ucc forms

and attend the best goal in the world. You see see Hugh Enalty.

Then leaving the crowds outside. This is what you are like new leg and

translation, look at it, you like this one very soft English. Jesus

went into the house because this, sciples said. So he left the crowds

outside right and he entered the house and his disciples said, can you please

explain to us the story of the test that you just said. Jesus was

very fond of using stories, and one day his disciples even asked him why

do you keep saying stories? Why are you why don't you just say that

thing? Do you have to go through this route? And Jesus said yes,

because these people there, the pharacists, are parted and the thing they

know, so if they know, they should recorded. But whenever he came

into privacy with his disciples, he will break it down for them and tell

them what it actually is. And this was one of the instances. The

first time he did it was with the powble of the Soua. You remember,

after he said the problem of the disciples came to him. Latime he

explained it to them. This one you explained seven, Jesus replied, the

son of man, he himself, Jesus is the farmer who and good seeds

who from last week, who remembers what the seed. Is was the seed

we lent it last week? Yes, the word of God. The city

is the word you see even I think from next week whenever it is,

I need to come and align money here. And this questions you answer,

you pick one, you answer, you pick one. Okay, I'm going

to start now, I'm going to start now. Each answered question is stan

cities. Each answered question is stan cities. So you can now start calculating

your money, start counting your money, the money that you're going home with.

And also not noticed that now the questions are going to be more difficult.

And I also not ask play two questions since we now I've seen that

you like money. What is the seed the word of God? Right?

And Jesus said, he is the one who came to plant, and he

has come to plant the word of God. That's thirty eight. The field

that's the seeds were planted on is the world, and the good seed represents

you, the people of the kingdom. So Jesus is opening our eyes to

one of the things that happens in this world as we have because it is

the field is the world. As you are on this world, in this

world, and you have decided to follow Jesus, you are the good seed

that is in the world. The good seed is you. You are the

good seed. You are the ones with the word of God. You are

the ones with the seed of the Word in you. The Word of God

give death to you. What scripture okay, what scripture says this thing that

I just said. There's a scripture in the Bible that says ten cities.

There's a scripture in the Bible that says you were born by the Word of

God. Find it in ten seconds and come for it over here. The

internet doesn't work, so I mean you want to google It is awkward.

Ten seconds. There's a scripture that says you were born by the Word of

God. Yes, ten, nine, eight seven, as you come down

six huh five? Yes, rise up, Rise up, Say it's what's

his day? What's this that you can't just tell us? And run away?

First? Whats I wanting today? Ah? How come you guys say

it? What's your name? What's your name? You don't know your name?

Esther? What's the lasting? Whoa? I owe you ten cities?

Okay? After church, come and see me for a ten city? So

yes. First Fitter one twenty three says for you have been born again.

He not to a life. Now quickly, what is all this lego on?

Can you take me to King James fly beg you you have been born

again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible You have been born by

the Word of God. That's why I said you are born by the way.

Okay, so scripture, I didn't say it from my head. You

are born by the word. The word give bath to you. You are

you originate from the wet you can you help from the word of God?

And the word of God is God? Isn't it? What scriptized that this

one is very easy? John one one? Isn't it? No? You

thought I was going to give you ten cities for John one? Let's be

serious. John one one in the beginning was aware the world was God and

the Word was God. Right, and the Bible soul says, because we

are born by the Word of God, we come from God, we hail

from God. We are of God. What scripturized that foscriptize that we are

of God? Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four

three two one first joint after four invest four first John four, verse four

we are of God. Little children. Huh, you have overcome them because

greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.

You hail from God. So this has said the good seed, you are

the good seat. You are the wits. You are the one that was

planted. It is you, You are the one that was planted. And

what about the bad seat? Yes, go back to Matthew thirteen. Back

to Matthew thirteen where we were before, Yes, verse thirty eight, Nalty,

switch to Nalty. Yes, the goods represents you and the weeds are

the people who belong to the evil One. There are people who belong to

the evil one. Have you seen it before? Have you read it before?

Fanny? Do you know that there are people who belong to the devil?

Yeah, they belong to Himure, they are people who are children of

the devil. Ah, should we ask where the al I remember when you

are on ten cities. Now that is Nowaday Champion, give me the scripture

that says they are children of the devil around in the world. Ten seconds,

there's a scripture that says there are children of the devil. If you

know it's don't project it to because people who just swoop ten nine, eight,

seven six children of the devil five four, three, two one,

no problem ten minutes. In the metromograh joins after age and rest forty four.

You are of your father, the devil. Yes, join a forty

four. Look at it. You are the children of your father, the

devil. There are people who are children of the devil. Listen, you

can you cannot exist and not be a person of the web. Who die

in too this you have to you have to be a man of the web,

a woman of the web. That's how you win. Okay, you

are the children of your father, the devil, and you love to do

the evil things he does. He was a matter from the beginning. He

always hated the truth because there's no truth in him. When he lies.

It is consistent with this character because he is a liar and the father of

all lies. So the main thing that the devil does is to lie.

That's what this has called him a liar. This has himself is called the

truth, and the devil is a liar and the father of lies. So

the rest thirty aide of Matthew thirteen says the tests the wits are children of

the devil. So as you sit here, don't make the mistake of thinking

that all of us. Here are children of God. You know who you

belong to. You know who you belong to. Everybody knows who I belong

to God, I know it. You should determine who you belong to.

And the Bible says that the tests and the wits were growing together. There

are people position in and around your life that are their purposely to make sure

that you are stifled. He said, the Kingdom of God is like that.

There are people. The field is the world. We are all in

the world. And as we are people of the lights and people of truth,

they also people of darkness. That's the Kingdom of God is these thirty

nine. He's at the harvest. The enemy who planted the wits is the

devil. The enemy has planted people in and around your life that do not

want you to save God the way you have to. There are people in

and around your life that always call you for only useless things. But they

only call you about chins. They only call you about letters. Letters,

that's all they call you are about. There are some people that even when

you want to first properly, you want to pay properly, the immediately comes

to your mind that no, this week I shouldn't been talking to this person

because I'm fasting. Why do you draw the conclusion because you hell yourself.

You've noticed that this person when they care you normally, all they talk about

is foolishness. All they talk about is the girl, some girl being the

class I'm boy in the school. That's all they talk about. And you

will have to be hard and make sure that you mark these people out.

What is the scripture that says, mark them and avoid them. There's a

scripture that says the people who preach contrary things what I've taught to you,

mark them and avoid them. I'll give you a cluse in romance, Yes,

three tests, cities five. Oh, come on now, huh that

is that hand up? Yes, yes, Romans sixteen seventeen years read it.

Mm hmm yes. Mark them which caused divisions and offenses contrary to the

doctrine which I've learned, and avoid them. Don't go close to them,

avoid them, mark them, mark them, and leave them alone. Because

some of these people are tests. They will not help you. M hm.

Back to thirty nine, please, Matthew Tetan thirty nine, thirty nine,

thirty nine. Yes, the harvest is the end of the world and

the harvests are the angels. This particulars lets us know that the Kingdom of

God and the Kingdom of Heaven cannot be preached without talking about the end time.

The Kingdom of God and the end Time are married. You can't talk

about the Kingdom of God without talking about the end time, because the end

of this world is coming. Jesus's government has come, but it has only

come for those who have accepted it. But a time is coming that,

whether you like it or not, you will have to live under the relaship

of Jesus. But because Jesus is a God of love, and you will

not force anybody to be under his relationship. You will only take those who

want to be in his relaship and his relationship, and the rest who are

not interested to go and bend somewhere. This is one of the harshest messages

of the Bible. In fact, a whole denomination was built because they didn't

like this part. They didn't like this part of hell. You've heard of

them. They're called joverst Witnesses. The guy who started the church is called

Russell. Russell said he cannot imagine a god who laughs us so much and

yet will send people to go and bending hell. Because of that, it

is a false message. In fact, the whole nomination he started started something

called the watch Tower. The watch Tower is evolved to become the Jover's witnesses,

and one of their main believes is that there's no hell. There's nothing

like hell. When you die, you are dead. Finished, end of

story. There's no hell. Let's not complicates the issues. Let's not try

and intimidate ourselves. There's no hell, there's hello, there is hell.

Look at Jesus said, those who are the testinal, they will buying them

up and they'll be bands by fire bands. And Jesus himself spoke a power.

But you remember the lass and a rich man. He said that a

rich man was sent to hell. You are not whiter than Jesus. And

you haven't even been in a where before. How do you know where heaven

is and where hell is? Jesus has been that he's telling there's hell.

So Marthew for seventeen said, when Jesus came, he didn't just say the

Kingdom of God is at hand. He began with repent. He said,

repent, repent, because the Kingdom of God is at hand. Yes,

let's finish it. He said, the harvests are the angels first forty Jesus,

just as the wits are sorted out and burned in fire. So it

will be at the end of the world. Did you see that it will

be that those who are of the kingdom will be put aside, and those

who are of the devil will put aside. Because the kind of kingdom that

God is going to establish after Jesus has come, it's a kingdom that does

not involve sin. Anything that provokes sin is going to be in a fire.

Anything that practices sin is going to be in a fire. This is

why we keep telling you you have to be aligned to the Kingdom of God.

You have to eschew evil and embrace righteousness. Why because one day the

king will come. One day the king will come. One day, the

King will come again. The earth didn't used to be. It wasn't like

this before. It wasn't like this before. The heath used to be a

place that was full of the glory of God. Sin made it like this.

Death wasn't part of it. Sin wasn't part of it. Something wasn't

part of it. Pain wasn't part of it. So the Bible says that

when Jesus comes again, they will take us with heaven and there will be

no more sorrow. There will be no more pain, there will be no

more tears, there will be no more cares. Why because the Kingdom of

God would have been fully manifested. Be on your feet now, set your

heart, and don't take this message likely. Don't take this message likely.

A lot of people have joked with it and are regretting now. They're regretting.

They're regretting so much now because they had they had a chance, they

had the gospel of the Kingdom, and they pushed it aside. The Kingdom

of God is not all doom and groomed like the way you're hearing it.

The Kingdom of God is very powerful. The Kingdom of God has benefits.

The Kingdom of God has privileges. In a second time exacts what I've been

talking about, the privileges of the Kingdom of God, because that's what I

started with last week. The privileges, the privileges of the Kingdom of God

are a lot. That's why Jesus said, seek first the Kingdom of God

and his righteousness and all other things, what other things that comforts and allergies

of life. They will be added to their additions. They are just additions.

Now set your hearts, close your eyes and set your hearts, and

ask yourself, am I ready for the Kingdom? Am I ready for
