Kingdom of Heaven

Kingdom of Heaven is never mentioned in the Old Testament but 31 times in the New – all in MATTHEW.

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS THE VALID OFFER OF CHRIST JESUS TO THE JEWS, ISRAEL TO SET UP THE NATION OF ISRAEL AS A LEADING NATION ON EARTH. AS IT WAS DURING THE REIGN OF KING DAVID AND KING SOLOMON, WITH CHRIST AS KING.

And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
Matthew 13:11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

Matthew 13:44-45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Matthew 13:47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

Kingdom of God

Never mentioned in Old Testament but 68 times in the New.

The kingdom is God is spiritual. It is entered into by the new birth. When an individual is saved. By confessing the LORD Jesus and believing in your heart that God has raised him from the dead.

King Jesus for the Gentile

When the Jews (as a Nation) rejected Christ Jesus as their Messiah, coming King (see King Jesus for the Jews). God, the Lord Jesus called the Jewish scourge (Saul) of all Jews who were becoming Christians (Acts 11:26) persecuting them even to putting them into jail and death. SAUL, a Pharisee, a leader within the Jewish Religion. After Saul’s conversion he tried to reach his fellow Jews with the gospel (1 Cor 15:1-4) but his ministry was limited and the religious leaders sought to kill him, so he turned to reaching out to the gentile world. (this was all God’s plan to open the plan of salvation to the Gentile world.)

Philippians 3:5-6 (Saul’s Jewish heritage) Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
Acts 9:15 bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
Acts 13:46-47 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Paul, the apostle to the gentiles (Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office) only twice mentions the Lord Jesus Christ as KING. His message to Gentiles is that we are HEIRS, JOINT HEIRS with Christ.

1 Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Timothy 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

Romans 8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Galatians 3:29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Titus 3:7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Yes, Christ Jesus will rule and reign here on earth from Jerusalem during the millennium. He will be King of the Jews and we, believers in His death, burial and resurrection (and ascension into heaven and soon coming again) will reign with Him as JOINT HEIRS. AMEN!

King Jesus for the Jew

A review of the verses below (put them back into context for further reading) show that not only did the 12 disciples of Jesus believe he was the Messiah, the coming King, so did his detractors, the Pharisees and Sadducees, and most Jews at large; which is why they sought to crucify him. It would upset their religious power. Pilate wondered at the idea as did other Roman leaders. During His three-year ministry He performed miracles to prove His deity and that He was the CHRIST, MESSIAH and their King promised to them in the Old Testament (see below) . And one day soon (after a seven year tribulation), He will return in power and take up His seat upon the Throne of David in Jerusalem to Rule. (Read the words of Peter Acts 2:22-37)

King Jesus for the World

Yes, the Lord Jesus came into this world to present himself to the Nation of Israel to be their King and to rule over them from Jerusalem. They rejected and crucified Him (Acts 2:23). God then called Saul, who became Paul, to take the message of salvation to the Gentile world (Romans 11:11). This is was a mystery and will one day end (Romans 11:25) and the Lord Jesus, King of Kings will turn to set up His kingdom to rule and rein over the Jews and the entire world.

Romans 11:11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

The Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy that Jesus Christ was King and Lord.

1 Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Timothy 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

And John, the writer of Revelation, pens the following about the Lord Jesus Christ, the KING:

Revelation 15:3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

Yes, Scoffers are among us even to this day as Peter warned (2 Peter 3:3-10). But next the Rapture, then the Tribulation, then the second coming and beginning of the 1000 years (millennium) reign on earth of the Lord Jesus, followed by the Great White Throne Judgement and then Eternity.

2 Peter 3:3-4 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

Rapture – I Thessalonians 4:13-18, I Corinthians 15:51-57
Tribulation – Matthew 24:21-29
2^nd Coming – Matthew 24:30, Acts 1:11, Revelation 1:7, Revelation 19:11-16
1000 years/Millennium Reign – Revelation 20:3-4
Great White Throne – Revelation 20:11-15

King of Kings, Lord of Lords

The titles KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS are used to describe the Lord Jesus during His one-thousand-year reign on earth from Jerusalem. We find this mentioned 3 times in the books of the new testament:
1 Timothy 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.

Definition of king of kings. : a monarch having other monarchs under him:
These titles are referred to in the Old Testament and need to be looked at.
Ezra 7:12 Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace, and at such a time.
Ezra was written sometime after 458 BC while Artaxerxes was king of Persia. He was considered the sixth King of Kings.
Ezekiel 26:7 For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.
Of course, Nebuchadrezzar would be called a king of kings. He was used by God to bring judgement upon Israel for their disobedience to His word.
Daniel 2:37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
Daniel refers to Nebuchadrezzar as a king of kings and reminds him where his power, and strength, and glory comes from – the God of heaven.

Lord is an appellation for a person or deity who has authority, control, or power over others acting like a master, a chief, or a ruler.
A King is in charge of a kingdom. A lord is not a royal. … And “lord” is an honorific that can be used by any male peer- duke, marquess, earl, viscount and baron.
Deuteronomy 10:17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:

The Psalmist reminds us that God is the LORD OF LORDS.
Psalm 136:3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.

And in conclusion, since the Lord Jesus is God, then when he sets up his kingdom on earth he will truly be KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS.

Marriage

Marriage is instituted by GOD Gen 2:18,24
Marriage is to be a monogamous relationship                     Gen 2:22               Marriage is to be a heterosexual relationship Gen 1:27,2:22      Marriage involves a formal and public leaving of one’s own parents in order
to establish a new family.                               Gen 2:24               Marriage is a relationship which cleaves two people into a couple until death
                                Mark 10:9; 1 Cor 7:39; Rom 7:2-3
Marriage involves the headship of the husband over the wife
                               Eph 5:23; 1 Cor 4:3
Marriage involves role relationships. Gal 3:28; 1 Pet 3:7; Eph 5:22-28
Marriage is a divine vocation 1 Cor 7:7; 7:32-35
Marriage is an honorable estate. Hebrews 13:4

What JESUS said about Marriage: to the Jews Matthew 19:1-12
to the Gentiles Mark 10:1-10

Four arguments against DIVORCE:

1. In the beginning God created one male and one female.       Gen 1:27; 5:2; Mark 10:6 Literal meaning: Male = Piercer      Female = Pierced
2. Marriage is the strongest of human bonds.                Gen 2:24; Mark 10:7
3. In marriage, two people become one flesh.               Gen 2:24; Mark 10:8
4. God joins together these two people.                         Mark 10:9

Three basic elements of marriage found in Gen 2:24:
A public act expressing the intent of the couple.
A public act expressing the intent of the couple
A permanent bonding of two lives into one life.
A physical union consummating the relationship.

Summary:
Marriage is God ordained and blessed and is a state recognized domestic institution. Gen 2:23-24; John 2:1-11
Divorce is the legal (state) dissolution, NOT recognized NOR instituted by God

Of note:        Matt 5:32; 19:9
greek word porneia
porneia = unchasity, immorality
porne (noun) = to sell
used especially for slaves and meant  “a harlot for sale”
porneia = unlawfurl sexual intercourse

Marriage … C.S. Lewis
Many people have the mistaken idea that if you have married the right person, you may expect to go on “being in love” forever. As a result, when they find they are not, they think this proves they have made a mistake and are entitled to a change, not realizing that when they have changed, the glamour will presently go out of the new love just as it went out of the old one. In this department of life, as in every other, thrills come at the beginning and do not last. Let the thrill go. Let it die away. Go on through that period of death into the quieter interest and happiness that follow and you will find you are living in a world of new thrills all the time.

The best thing you can give you children is a solid marriage with both a father and a mother.

What makes a family:
Parents are two separate people who have chosen each other and become ONE by the bonds of Marriage. Families become bonded together when they accept:
The Bond of Blood:                   Tied together by blood, by genetics, by heritage.
The Bond of Band Wagoning:   No matter what, remember the family is one unit in God’s eyes.
The Bond of Benevolence:     Always be a loving and forgiving family.
Never give up on a family member. Will not always agree with everyone and everything. We will do things differently. When we are hurt by another family member, remember it’s God’s opportunity for us to practice forgiveness. It is very puzzling to see a family member reach out to a stranger with a problem but ignore a family member with the same or similar problem.
The Bond of Blessing:                          Share you faith with your family. How sad it will be to reach Heaven and not have all your family there.And sharing your faith, daily, will strengthen their’

Satan Part 2

IV. His Kingdom
a. Matthew 12:24-30 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. 25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: 26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? 27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. 29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. 30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
b. Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
c. Daniel 10:10-14 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands. 11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling. 12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. 14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

V. His methods
a. 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
b. Galatians 1:6-9 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
c. 1 Timothy 4:1-5 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: 5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
d. 2 Peter 2:1-2

VI. His doom
a. Revelation 12:9-12 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
b. Revelation 13:2-8 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
c. Revelation 20:1-3 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
