WHAT IS KINGDOM THEOLOGY?

Notice what Jesus said: "And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent." Luke 4:43

Jesus realized his commission was the preach the good news about the soon coming Kingdom of God, the one that had been predicted to come by all the prophets of old. That preaching of the Kingdom of God was what took up his entire ministry. Everything he did was to announce the Kingdom of God. He knew that as the Messiah, the King of Israel. he at his return would defeat all the nations that would come up against Jerusalem at the last days and take his place seated on the throne of David in Zion [Jerusalem] and from there rule over the physical nation of Israel - made up of the surviving remnant [Zechariah 12:-14] and rule over all the nations as King of kings and Lord of lords.

The old testament writings say when that happens all the nation will send representatives up to Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Tabernacles [temporary booths] and pay homage to the Messiah Yehoshua [Jesus].

At that time we who have been faithful including all those down through the ages back to Adam will have been resurrected and have immortal glorified bodies just like what Jesus now has:

1 John 3:2: Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

At that time we shall have a place of service in the Theocratic Government of God under the rulership of Yehoshua - Jesus. We will co-rule with him over all the nations and co-inherit all things in him and with him.

What I have written is true kingdom theology and what amazes me is that one never ever hears it being preached today when that is all Jesus and Paul and the other apostles were sent forth to preach.

Acts 28:30-31: And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house and received all that came in unto him, Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus the Messiah, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.

Jesus said our individual commission is to preach the message that he himself brought first to Israel [to the Jew first] and then to the world [to the Gentiles]... why is that not being done?

Notice what it says about Paul, it says he was:

1. Preaching the kingdom of God, and

2. teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus the Messiah

So it isn't just about the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus that needs to be preached but the reason he did have to die as a sin offering sacrifice and be resurrected to sit at the right hand of his God and his Father until Yehovah sends him down to sit upon the throne of David at Zion, and rule over the nation of Israel and all the nation with us!

The Kingdom message that Jesus brought needs to be proclaimed all over the world and then will the end come!

Mark 16:15: And he said unto them, go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Notice:

2 Corinthians 4:4: In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them who believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of the Messiah [the good news about the coming Kingdom of God], who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Do we realize that the gospel message that the 70 sent out by the lord Jesus during his ministry preached the gospel and it was about the coming Kingdom of God, and later it included the name of Jesus and all of what that name involves, as we see in:

Acts 8:12: But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus the anointed one, they were baptized, both men and women.

Notice: Luke 8:11-12: The seed is the word of God - the good news about the Kingdom. Those by the way side are they that hear; then comes the devil, and takes away the word - about the Kingdom out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

All men and women need to believe in the word about the kingdom of God and all that the name of Jesus involves in order to be saved. How many people who claim to be Christians believe in the message Jesus brought to be proclaimed to the whole world, the message about the coming Kingdom [Kingship] of God?

Matthew 7:14: How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life and few are those who find it.
