The
Kingdom of God (also called Kingdom of Heaven {of heaven, not in heaven})
really means a spiritual kingdom
which all of us can enter today by a shift in our awareness if
we feel moved to do so:.John
4:23,24 "But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers
shall worship.(what
worship means).the
Father in spirit.(so
its a spiritual
presence, a 'place' as it were).and
in truth, for the Father seeks such to worship him. God is a Spirit and
they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." Luke
1:33 "...of his kingdom there is no end.".Once
it is set up in you, you are then in the world but not a product of all
its garbage:
This kingdom comes with an
established invisible ruler:.1Timothy
1:17 "Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise
God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen."
"And when he was demanded
of the Pharisees, when
the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom
of God comes not with observation...Neither
shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there!.(but
some
religious people do).for,
behold, the kingdom of God.is
within you." ...Luke 17:20,21.(once
you accept where the kingdom of God is, you begin to become aware of this
Infinite Intelligence being with you; from here it
grows, as your shift in consciousness increases towards being motivated
by love and not by selfish transient
pursuits which waste your life until you awaken. The reason you wasted
you life till then was because you were on the road to destruction and
didn't really care how it all would work out because you were duped
by the greatest duper of them all.
"Wherefore we
receiving a kingdom.(a
spiritual kingdom).which
cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably
with reverence and godly fear.(or,
'respect')." ...Hebrews
12:28
"Far above all principality
and power and might and dominion and every name that is named, not only
in this world, but also in.that
which is to come." ...Ephesians
1:21
"For unto the angels has
he not put in subjection
the world to come, whereof we speak." ...Hebrews
2:5
"Now this I say, brethren,
that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption
inherit incorruption." ...1Corinthians
15:50
".....world.(original
means 'age').without
end. Amen." ...Ephesians 3:21
"..... in the world.('age'
or time after your physical stint
here).to
come, life everlasting." ...Luke 18:30
".....he
that is least in the kingdom of heaven.(of
heaven, not
in
heaven).is
greater than he." ...Matthew 11:11
"The law and the prophets
were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God is preached and every
man presses into it." ...Luke
16:16
"Wherefore we receiving a
kingdom which cannot be moved....."
...Hebrews
12:28
"Who has delivered us from
the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear
Son." ...Colossians
1:13
"Thus says the LORD, The
heaven is my throne and the earth is my footstool..." ...Isaiah
66:1
What the world needs now
is an assurance of tomorrow! And it
has it!
"And
the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying,
The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of
his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." ...Revelation
11:15
"He shall subdue.(original
is "speak to"; and He
will use this sword I think).the
people under us and the nations under our feet." ...Psalms
47:3
The Kingdom is a coming
together of all in Christ. You are in the Kingdom now.when
Christ is in you, and you have the
same incredible powers that He has, for we are one
with Him.
"That in the ages to come
he might shew the.exceeding.riches
of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus." ...Ephesians
2:7
"But as it is written, Eye
has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man,
the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." ...1Corinthians
2:9
Finally, the heartaches
of life are over. Has life ever gone the way
for anybody that they would have had it go? No. Instead, life offers us
many twists and curves, some of our choosing from ignorance and others
of little or no choice.
But it is all part of invisible (to
most of us) training, bringing us to the point of all
it means to be equal with God.
"The Musical-Mathematical
Matrix known in the worlds of science and metaphysics, is the 'Kingdom
of Heaven' referenced throughout the religious world."....Dr
Len Horowitz. ".....the kingdom which
he has.promised.to
them that love him?" ...James 2:5.
So it stands to reason then that the thing to get good
at is love.
The KG. What is it? Where
is it? Who is in it? How do we become a part of it? Through God the Father?
Not just! Christ? Well, not just Him either! Us?
What
is it be like to be in it? A
reward can be for sure.
The message of the Kingdom
was important to Jesus:.Matthew
26:29 "But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit
of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's
kingdom." Matthew
9:35 "And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in
their synagogues, and preaching
the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease
among the people." Psalms
46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the
heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."
The physical Kingdom of
God established on Earth (Zechariah
14:4 "And his feet shall stand in that
day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east.....")
and with Christ in charge (Ephesians
1:19-22 "And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us who
believe
according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ,
when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in
the heavenly places, Far above all principality and power and might and
dominion and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also
in that which is to come. And hath put all things under his feet, and gave
him to be the head over all things to the church." Isaiah
24:23 ".....the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount
Zion and in Jerusalem and before his ancients
gloriously.") is all yet to occur. But the
Kingdom of God, a spiritual kingdom was being entered into even when Jesus
walked and talked on Earth:.Matthew
23:13 "...them that are entering to go in."
The Kingdom was instituted
under Christ’s control. The enemies of Christ (who had rejected Him and
persecuted His followers) had been destroyed. All the Old Testament prophecies
about the Kingdom and
Jesus'
return had been fulfilled.
Are you set for the next
step? Tired of this life being what it has been to you? There's enough
good things here to keep most of us going, but like, who wants to come
back and do it again – one time on this 'merry-go-round' is enough!
Most of our dreams never
turn out exactly as hoped, and some never do come in this physical life.
Why
is it that, no matter how hard you may try, many things you want just
never come to fruition?
God wants certain
things occurring in your life, whether or not you want them
or expect them. Most of us harbour negative thoughts, yet, wish for all
the good things. It does not work that way.
It is simply understanding
that this is a precise universe, a precise universe of law. Certain of
the laws have to do with the mind, and all laws are affected by mind, by
attitude, and can be used by a person to bring them the life they want.
Understand
how.
Once a person understands
them, and learns how to use them, he can do incredible things: John
14:12. He can bring into his life all the good that he truly believes
he deserves. This is the will of the Great Infinite Intelligence for all
mankind. It is just that our programming keeps themm from us until
we learn how to change that. See the Ask Suby link at the bottom.
Even our beliefs
are shaped by the Invisible One as He does
not want clones.
Why do we fail to plan for
life beyond? Lack of belief that it is a reality for us, is a prime reason.
Ask God to increase your belief. There is a key to
make life most interesting.
He sees you as a loving individual,
happy and productive in the next
step of life, and works
today what He will with you to make sure of the character He wants
for that time then. He knows what's best for you here and now, but we would
never choose that road. Trust Him! Those looking just to this life for
fulfilment, are missing the mark of what they are
really here for.....continue?
