Growth King and a Kingdom or it's about Him not His name

[Chopper]

A KING WITHOUT A KINGDOM???

At this time of year with are reminded of the cross on which Jesus was crucified. Beside's Jesus on that cross hung a sign that read "KING OF THE JEWS". It had been placed there by order of Pilot, to whom Jesus had told that He was a King, but His kingdom was not of this world, and if it was they would be there fighting for Him. So He at that time was a King and of the kingdom of God. It is part of the cross. They had not only hung Jesus the Christ on the cross but also the idea that He was at that time a King!!

How are we any different when we too say that Jesus is not a King with a kingdom at this time???

Being King is not a position that He is going "to fulfill"!!

Neither is that the case with Him being a prophet or a priest! So how do you write "to fulfill"???

The Jews did not know their King. So they did not know about His kingdom which was not of this world. And as a result they cried out against Him. And He, along with the idea that He was King of the Jews, were hung on a some wood in hopes that it would do away with Him and the idea that He was King, . That was the ultimate act of rebellion. And we do the same. We have a Bible made of wood processed as paper, And we put Him, the King who does have a kingdom right now and the idea that He has a kingdom right now, and we hang Him them on that Bible and say "to fulfill", because He is not our King now! If He was our King now we would know it and we would know about His kingdom, because it is in our midst!!

The Father has put Him over all things, but not all recognized Him as their King and Lord right now. We do know that all speaking by the Spirit of God call Him Lord and mean it. He is my Lord. He tells me instructions, along with wisdom knowledge and understanding. And He sends me ministering angels also. I hear from Him and from those in His kingdom that serve Him.

All things will come out of rebellion or be thrown into hell which will be placed in the lake of fire, and a new heaven and earth will one day exist. And rebellion will be done away with and all who remain will know Him who is King. But knowing Him the King of a kingdom that is not of this world is an option right now. So who says, "to fulfill"?

We need to stop preaching a Jesus that is a King without a kingdom. That is a lie!! We need to stop trying to hang that idea on a cross along with the living and active Word of God who is Jesus Christ. HE IS KING OF kings now!! Yet some are rebellious and don't want Him as there king. Some seem to say He is Lord, but a closer look shows that they are saying He is not their Lord. They don't know Him as King. One day they will either change their mind of find out what is truly means to be through into hell and be done away with.

I agree with you my friend. Jesus was a King at His birth. That's why royalty came and gave Him Kingly gifts. He was a King growing up. He was a King during His short years teaching and preparing His Disciples. He was a King hanging on the cross. He is our King Who is seated at the right hand of the Majesty on high. And His Kingdom is soon to appear on the earth for those who believe in the King Jesus the Christ of God....GLORY TO GOD.

Yes Jesus Christ was, is, and will always be all that.

Still there is a point for noting all this, and that is that many don't seem to really grasp what that means and can mean to all of us today in our own lives. The point is that we have access to the King of kings and even to His kingdom, and He is a great, mighty, wise, and powerful king, and His kingdom that serves Him is under Him and likewise great, mighty, wise, and powerful, and God wants us to have it and be part of it!!! Yet we ignore the King and His kingdom instead of seek it!! And it shows when Christians don't seem to know about it. We don't just have salvation in the future, we have a kingdom of power now, a kingdom with not only The King of kings and Lord of lords, but those He reigns over and are they not all ministering spirit sent by our Lord to us saints? They are! And we can seek that kingdom now! So why don't we?

Are we saying, "His Kingdom is soon to appear?" Well yes, soon all of earth will see it and know about it, but it is available to be found by those who believe right now!!!! Seek and you shall find, ask and it will be open to you. That's the good news. We can have a King, our King Jesus Christ and His kingdom now, right now, not later! And that is the good new message!!! That's the point. It's not about His name, Jesus Christ, it's about Him and the reality of Him now, if we care to believe, and that means seek Him and His kingdom now.
