Jesus was a Jew living within the Roman Empire
But he also owned the territory of Rome
Because His Father is the King of the Universe
Other kingdoms are allowed to survive because
Within the different kingdoms Jesus is drawing out His Citizens

No empire will outsmart the Umpire of life
God the Father is Sovereign and when
It is time for another kingdom to be shut down—
Our Heavenly Father will shut it down
The citizens of Heaven are in different countries and
God is pulling them out and showing them their true identity
God has given everyone citizenship but not all accept it

Today empires believe that they can outsmart the Umpire of life
But God the Father has sent another Kingdom and
It is the Kingdom of Jesus that will last forever –
The system of this world is defeated

No empire will outsmart the Umpire of life
God the Father is Sovereign—
He loves the different empires and
He offers salvation to all empires
This is the heart of God seen in all His splendour
God is love and nothing will stop His Plan

Jesus was a Jew living within the Roman Empire
But he also owned the territory of Rome
Because His Father is the King of the Universe

Let us not fear any empire
