Hi,
There is only one kingdom of God.
It involves God's reign both in heaven and through His Son of earth.
It has been established and it will be completed when Jesus assumes the seat of DavidHi,
The kingdom of God was initiated when Jesus was on earth.
Lk16
16The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.Hi,
Mt21
28But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.29He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
30And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
31Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.
Some would say that because of what is written here ALL tax collectors and prostitutes will be saved.
No so
Lk7
37And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,38And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
40And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
41There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
43Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
48And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
50And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Hi…….the kingdom of GOD comes (NOT) with observation, but is With in You. All who have GOD's Spirit in them are in the Kingdom of GOD , because GOD rules in the heart and mind, of a person. Only the fruits can be seen not the source.
peace to all……………..gene
Nick….brother i hate to disagree with you again, but your wrong the Kingdom will be Jesus' kingdom he receives the kingdom and crown of DAVID, and at the end of the millennium, turns it over to GOD the FATHER. Jesus and the Saints will rule a earthly kingdom, The people in it will be as CARNAL as ever, and will be brought under carnal laws and commandments also. The kingdom of GOD comes without observation , it is within you, and you only see its fruit.
love to you and yours……………….gene
Hi,
King Jesus on the seat of David,
Psalm 22:28
For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.
Isaiah 9:7
Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
Daniel 7:14
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.Nick….who said it would be destroyed, Jesus will turn it over th the FATHER, At the end of His 1000 year reign.
peace……………gene
Nick……Jesus said whosoever overcomes even as i have , i will grant to sit in my kingdom even as i have over come and sit down in the Fathers kingdom. Two kingdoms one of Christ , which is turned over to the FATHER at the end of the 1000 year rule of Jesus. And Jesus Himself will be made subject to that kingdom also. As scripture says. But is is all of GOD.
peace……………..gene
Nick…………Jesus will rule (UNTIL) All authority is put under his FOOT and (THEN) the KINGDOM will be turned over to the Father and Jesus will no longer be the King , but GOD the FATHER will BE, and Jesus will become (SUBJECT) unto HIM also the same as we will be. One GOD in ALL and Through ALL ONE FINAL Kingdom ( the KINGDOM OF GOD). IMO

To All….> Mat 13:25…..>the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept. his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in they field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto then, an enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up, But he said, Nay lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest : and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Who here has wisdom , let him explain it to us then. Lets all concentrate on this perhaps we may (ALL) grow (together).
Some things we know……the seed is the word of God And the sower is a man and the (Field), is it the world or the mans Heart? What think you?
much love and peace to you all……………gene
GB,
Mt13
36Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.37He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
38The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
41The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
42And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Nick……..the enemy is Evil Thats in the world and all men grow up with it , its not a creature going around planting it other then man himself. All who sin are considered adversities of GOD or enemy's of His , for the CARNAL MIND is an enmity to GOD not subject to the laws of God neither indeed can be. Man Exists in and EVIL STATE, Jesus even said you (BEING) EVIL, that means existing in a evil state. Nick if you will look at a good Greek translation you will find it says , the children of (the) EVIL , the article (the) and the word (ONE) is not there it's been added by translators, It should read “children of EVIL” no definite article is used and the word (one) is not there either.
peace to you…………….gene
What is the kingdom of God? what is a kingdom period?
It is a people ruled over by a king; today we have presidents, or prime ministers. It is a man whom people trust to lead them, and protect them from danger. Today we call that government.
Up till now, all governments/kingdoms, and all religion are Satan's, he is the god/ruler of this world.
In a very short time this is all going to change; Satan will be put away, and Jesus Christ will be King/Ruler. There will be no other kings ruling any part of this world; it will be the “kingdom of God” because God has chosen the king who will govern. Christ will judge/teach the world, and after a thousand years, when all sin and evil will have been put away, he will turn this kingdom back over to the Father. Why did Jesus say “the Father judges/teaches no one”? Because not until all sin has been removed; and that don't happen until Satan will be released from his prison to give mankind a final test, then Satan himself will be destroyed, he who had the power over sin/death. God is so Holy he can not look on sin, even Jesus felt that when he hung on the cross, and took on all of our sins.
Those that are loyal to the Father will then live for all eternity in “God's Kingdom”.Georg
