Jesus was driven by God (John 5:19) and not by need
The Kingdom of God had everything that Jesus needed—
Likewise this applies to us as well—
Everything we need is found in the kingdom

Jesus never taught his disciples that the world
Needs to be transformed before HE comes back—the
Improvement of the world is not the central task of the Kingdom
Jesus did not solve all the problems of Palestine when HE walked the earth—
He did not heal everybody in the Middle East
He did not build any schools or hospitals etc while he was here
He stuck to HIS Kingdom PURPOSE—
We must expand the rule of God over as many people as possible
God will allow us to influence areas of life so that
People can be drawn into the Kingdom because
Our lifestyles which will reflect the heart of JESUS—
The Holy Spirit will be our POWER

There are many different churches
There are many different churches with different messages
However there is only ONE real message—it is
The message of the Kingdom of God—
Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ
Jesus spoke more about the Kingdom than the church
[He mentioned the church(ecclesia) two/three times]

There are many who are in the church building
However many of them are not citizens of Heaven—
They only belong to a church
They dress a certain way and they
Allow their dress code to give them a spiritual status—
The error is so plain to see yet
Many remain a victim to the bondage of religion

Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ

The Kingdom driven church is hard to find
However the message of the Kingdom of God is PREACHED
The Kingdom of God is not taught in Universities—
The Kingdom of God is not taught in many churches

Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ

Many churches have made born again the Gospel message
The gospel of being born again is the
First part of the Gospel of the kingdom
It is not the peak of a man’s life
Many saints are just inside the door—
Jesus said that He is the door

Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ

Man did not fall from Heaven
But he was on earth when he ‘fell’
We tend to write off this life and
Look forward to passing over into Heaven
Because we want Jesus to save us from this mess on earth
A religion that can’t be tested can’t be trusted

Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ

The Good News is that God’s Government can Rule in
Man’s heart again and he can get back to his original position
Man did not fall from Heaven
But he was on earth when he ‘fell’
Jesus came to restore his ‘position’—
We tend to write off this life and
Look forward to passing over into Heaven
Because we want Jesus to save us from this mess on earth
“A Faith that can’t be tested can’t be trusted”

Basileia is the Greek word translated “kingdom” in the New Testament Basileia is used 164 times in the New Testament—
Over 100 times by our Lord Jesus the Christ
