The KINGDOM OF GOD is WITHIN the CHILDREN OF GOD.

In this present day, as it was in the old times, many people do not really understand being in the KINGDOM OF GOD. Jesus clarified this “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. Neither shall they say, lo here! Or, lo there! [FOR, BEHOLD, THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU]” (Luke 17:20–21).

“[IF A MAN LOVES ME, HE WILL KEEP MY WORDS]: and [MY FATHER WILL LOVE HIM, AND WE WILL COME UNTO HIM], and [MAKE OUR ABODE WITH HIM]” (John 14:23).

“The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: [REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL]” (Mark 1:15). “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and [THEN SHALL THE END COME]” (Matthew 24:14).

Jesus instructed his disciples before he left this earth said: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:” (Matthew 28:19).

“For John truly baptized with water; [BUT YE SHALL BE BAPTIZED WITH THE HOLY GHOST] not many days hence” (Acts 1:5).

“[AND THAT REPENTANCE AND REMISSION OF SINS SHOULD BE PREACHED IN HIS NAME AMONG ALL NATIONS, BEGINNING AT JERUSALEM. And ye are witnesses of these things.

And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with [POWER FROM ON HIGH]” (Luke 24:47-49).

The Apostle Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles explained, said: “For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to [PREACH THE GOSPEL]: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the [PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are [SAVED] it is the [POWER OF GOD].

“[FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NOT MEAT AND DRINK]; but [RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY GHOST]” (Romans 14:17).

“[THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NOT IN WORD, BUT IN POWER; THAT YOUR FAITH SHOULD NOT STAND IN THE WISDOM OF MEN, BUT IN THE POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 4:20, 2:5).

“[EXAMINE YOURSELVES, WHETHER YE BE IN THE FAITH]; prove your own selves. [KNOW YE NOT YOUR OWN SELVES, HOW THAT JESUS CHRIST IS IN YOU]?” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).

We must EVERYDAY keep the FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST.

“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).

“For the [PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is to them that [PERISH FOOLISHNESS]; but unto us which are [SAVED] it is the [POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 1:18-19).

“[THE KINGDOM OF GOD] IS not in word, but [IN POWER; THAT YOUR FAITH SHOULD] not [STAND] in the wisdom of men, but [IN THE POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 4:20, 2:5).

“[FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS] not meat and drink; but [RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND PEACE, AND JOY IN THE HOLY GHOST]” (Romans 14:17).

“[NOW FAITH IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR], the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1).

“[WHILE WE LOOK NOT AT THE THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN], but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; [BUT THE THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN ARE ETERNAL]” (2 Corinthians 4:18).

“[FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD MEN HAVE NOT HEARD, NOR PERCEIVED BY THE EAR, NEITHER HATH THE EYE SEEN], O God, beside thee, [WHAT HE HATH PREPARED FOR HIM THAT WAITETH FOR HIM]” (Isaiah 64:4).

“Now we beseech you, brethren, by [THE COMING] of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by [OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM], whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thessalonians 2:1).

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).

To BELIEVE in GOD and NOT BELIEVE in his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON will be an absolute waste of a Lifetime! (John 5:21-24, 8:36).

Do not gamble with your lifetime because the outcome WILL BE FORVER: ETERNAL LIFE or Everlasting Punishment!

BELIEVE ALSO IN JESUS CHRIST!

“[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

“[FOR AS THE FATHER RAISETH UP THE DEAD, AND QUICKENETH THEM; EVEN SO THE SON QUICKENETH WHOM HE WILL]. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: [THAT ALL MEN SHOULD HONOUR THE SON, EVEN AS THEY HONOUR THE FATHER]. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and [BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE, AND SHALL NOT COME INTO CONDEMNATION; BUT IS PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE]” (John 5:21-24).

“[HE THAT HATH THE SON HATH LIFE]; and [HE THAT HATH NOT THE SON OF GOD HATH NOT LIFE]. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says:

“LET not your heart be troubled: [YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME]” (John 14:1).

“[ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH]” (Matthew 28:18). “The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand” (John 3:35). “Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father” (John 6:46).

“All things that the Father hath are mine” (John 16:15).

“The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: [REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL]” (Mark 1:15). “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall [THE END] come” (Matthew 24:14).

“[NO MAN CAN COME TO ME, EXCEPT THE FATHER WHICH HATH SENT ME DRAW HIM: AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP AT THE LAST DAY]” (John 6:44).

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

Preaching of the CROSS or Prosperity Preaching?

“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]. Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron” (1 Timothy 4:1-2).

Our Lord Jesus says: “[BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS], which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? [WHEREFORE BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW THEM]” (Matthew 7:15-16, 20).

“[NO SERVANT CAN SERVE TWO MASTERS]: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. [YE CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON]” (Luke 16:13).

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, ‘[VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT A RICH MAN SHALL HARDLY ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN]’. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God” (Matthew 19:23-24).

“BELOVED, [BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT, BUT TRY THE SPIRITS WHETHER THEY ARE OF GOD]: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: [EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS OF GOD]: And [EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH NOT THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS NOT OF GOD: AND THIS IS THAT SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST], whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world” (1 John 4:1-3).

“For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist” (2 John 1:7).

“[FOR SUCH ARE FALSE APOSTLES, DECEITFUL WORKERS, TRANSFORMING THEMSELVES INTO THE APOSTLES OF CHRIST]. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; [WHOSE END SHALL BE ACCORDING TO THEIR WORKS]” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).

“[TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS]: for [A MAN’S LIFE CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS] which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).

“Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:31).

“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24). “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the [POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 1:19).

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Romans 16:24).

Doctrine of CHRIST (Hebrews 6:1-7) or church doctrines?

Too much time is wasted debating, dissenting and disputing the word of God instead of building the house of God, “Who hath saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began” (2 Timothy 1:9).

Notwithstanding the proliferation of religions and church denominations, there is only one building of the Kingdom of God through the Holy Spirit, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom all the building fitly framed together to grow to the end of time unto a holy temple in the Lord (Ephesians 2:20–22).

At the end of time, it is not a specific religion or church denomination as it is the doctrines of many that will be redeemed from this earth. We are to beware of adhering to the doctrines of men; we should obtain knowledge of and obey the word of God. Jesus warned of this very fact when he sent his angel with letters to the early seven churches in the revelation of John (Revelation 1:11).

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

“For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds” (2 John 1:7, 9-11).

“One Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ” (Ephesians 4:5-7).

LOVE rather than Hate.

“No man hath seen God at any time. [IF WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER, GOD DWELLETH IN US, AND HIS LOVE IS PERFECTED IN US]” (1 John 4:12).

“If a man say, I love God, and [HATETH HIS BROTHER, HE IS A LIAR]: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, [HOW CAN HE LOVE GOD WHOM HE HATH NOT SEEN]? (1 John 5:20).

The Apostle Paul explained, said:

“Owe no man any thing, but to [LOVE ONE ANOTHER]: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore [LOVE IS THE FULFILLING OF THE LAW]” (Romans 13:8-10).

“[FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MEN, AND HOLINESS, WITHOUT WHICH NO MAN SHALL SEE] the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14).

“Hatred stirreth up strifes: but [LOVE COVERETH ALL SINS]” (Proverbs 10:12).

LOVE OF THE FATHER or Love of the World?

“[LOVE NOT THE WORLD, NEITHER THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORLD. IF ANY MAN LOVES THE WORLD, THE LOVE OF THE FATHER IS NOT IN HIM]. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever” (1 John 2:15–17).

“[AND BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD: BUT BE YE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND], that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Romans 12:2).

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God says: “[THIS IS THE WORK OF GOD, THAT YE BELIEVE ON HIM WHOM HE HATH SENT]” (John 6:27-29).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” (John 3:16-17).

“[WHO IS HE THAT OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD]? This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:5–6).

“If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON OF GOD HATH THE WITNESS IN HIMSELF]: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

[AND THIS IS THE RECORD, THAT GOD HATH GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON]” (1 John 5:9-11).

“[EVERY GOOD GIFT AND EVERY PERFECT GIFT IS FROM ABOVE, AND COMETH DOWN FROM THE FATHER OF LIGHTS], with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

“Therefore as [BY THE OFFENCE OF ONE] judgment came upon all men to [CONDEMNATION]; even so [BY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF ONE THE FREE GIFT] came upon all men unto [JUSTIFICATION OF LIFE]” (Romans 5:18).

“[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE]: and [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE]; but the wrath of God abideth on him” (John 3:36).

To BELIEVE the word of GOD or to be Deceived by the world?

“[FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD], that he gave [HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]” (John 3:16).

“[FOR MANY DECEIVERS] are [ENTERED INTO THE WORLD], who [CONFESS NOT THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH]. This is a deceiver and an antichrist” (2 John 1:7).

“[WHOSOEVER SHALL CONFESS THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD, GOD DWELLETH IN HIM, AND HE IN GOD]” (1 John 4:15).

“[FOR GOD SENT NOT HIS SON INTO THE WORLD] to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:17).

“If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.

[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON OF GOD HATH THE WITNESS IN HIMSELF]: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

[AND THIS IS THE RECORD, THAT GOD HATH GIVEN TO US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON]” (1 John 5:9-11).

“[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” (John 3:18).

“And with all [DECEIVABLENESS OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IN THEM THAT PERISH]; because they [RECEIVED NOT THE LOVE OF THE TRUTH, THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED]” (2 Thessalonians 2:10).

“[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD] not perish, but [HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

He which testifieth these things saith, [SURELY I COME QUICKLY]. Amen. [EVEN SO, COME], Lord Jesus.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” (Revelation 22:16, 20-21).

The word of God or the world?

“Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read” (Isaiah 34:16).

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS]” (2 Timothy 3:16).
Our Lord Jesus says: “It is written, that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God” (Luke 4:4).

“The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63).

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:14).

When time ends at the End of the World, “[TRUTH] shall spring out of the earth; and [RIGHTEOUSNESS] shall look down from heaven” (Psalm 85:11).

What is TRUTH?

Our Lord Jesus says: “Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice” (John 18:37).
“[MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME: AND I GIVE UNTO THEM ETERNAL LIFE; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one” (John 10:27-30).

“Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32).

“[I AM WITH YOU ALWAY, EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

JESUS is the Word of GOD and THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. [AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, AND DWELT AMONG US], (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” (John 1:1-2, 14).

“BELOVED, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world” (1 John 4:1-3).

“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works” (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).

“For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds” (2 John 1:7, 9-11).

“[WHOSOEVER DENIETH THE SON, THE SAME HATH NOT THE FATHER]” (1 John 2:23).

“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son” (2 John 1:9).

“He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand” (John 3:33–35).

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these [LAST DAYS SPOKEN UNTO US BY HIS SON, WHOM HE HATH APPOINTED HEIR OF ALL THINGS, by whom also he [MADE THE WORLDS]” (Hebrews 1:1–2).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).
