Jesus Came With His Kingdom

JESUS CAME WITH HIS KINGDOM

November 29, 2014

Those who argues that JESUS CHRIST is yet to come with His Kingdom have to ignore a lot of Scripture to conclude that He is yet to come with His Kingdom:  JESUS said Himself:  “Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.” Matthew 16:28  

When JESUS told His disciples to pray, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10   The coming of the Kingdom was still future.

And Mark said: ”When he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:” Luke 17:20

JESUS taught that the Kingdom is not visible to natural eyes.
He told Nicodemus: “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3    Christ's kingdom is not of this world and never will be.   Jesus told Pilate, " Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.  John 18:36

“And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” Revelation 21:2  

“When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?   And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.   But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:”  Acts 1 :6-8

Paul said: “For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.” Romans 14:17 

And JESUS continued by saying: “And ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.   And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.   And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;  Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” Acts 1:9-11

Amen and Amen!!
