What is the Key Of David??????

What is the Key of David? I would like to know who has knowledge about this Key.


Rev 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Rev 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
<O:pRev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
<O:p<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com
><st1:time Hour=
Rev 3:10</st1:time> Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. <O:p</O:p
Rev 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. <O:p</O:p
Rev 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. <O:p</O:p
 
There is a quote there from Isaiah...

Isaiah 22:19-24
NLT
<sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18047">19</sup> “Yes, I will drive you out of office,” says the Lord. “I will pull you down from your high position. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18048">20</sup> And then I will call my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah to replace you. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18049">21</sup> I will dress him in your royal robes and will give him your title and your authority. And he will be a father to the people of Jerusalem and Judah. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18050">22</sup> I will give him the key to the house of David—the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18051">23</sup>He will bring honor to his family name, for I will drive him firmly in place like a nail in the wall.
<sup class="versenum" id="en-NLT-18052">24</sup> They will give him great responsibility, and he will bring honor to even the lowliest members of his family.”


The key of David is supreme rulership over Jerusalem. It belongs to Jesus---Yeshua.

So you are saying that Eliakim the son of Hilkiah is now Jesus? This is the person that the scripture you quoted is refering to.
Or could it be that someone living on the earth today holds the Key of David and it was given to him by Jesus Christ as said clearly in Rev 3:7-14.

Isa 22:20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:

No, Eliakim ws a literal king in Jerusalem who held the key of David. The key of David truly belongs to the ultimate King of kings, Jesus Christ. Always did, but that mention of it in Isaiah was a prophetic foreshadowing.
 
Christ also gave the Keys to Peter and He refered to the Key of David as the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Mat 16:19 And I will give to you the Keys of the kingdom of Heaven. And whatever you bind on earth shall occur, having been bound in Heaven. And whatever you may loose on the earth shall be, having been loosed in Heaven.

And in rev 3:7-14 seems he has given the Key of David to someone else in these the last days.
Who has this crown?
Who are the people that jews etc will fall at their feet?
And What is the real name of the nameless God of Isreal?
And He shall write on them His new name!
What is wrong with his old name????
This scripture brings up many challenges to learn about.

Also in acts 15:16-18


<DIR>'After this, I will come back and set up David's fallen tent again. I will restore its ruined places and set it up again
Act 15:17 so that the rest of the people may search for the Lord, including all the gentiles who are called by my name, declares the Lord. He is the one who has been doing these things
Act 15:18 that have always been known.'



<DIR>Rev 22:16 I Jesus have sent my angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning-star.


</DIR>

The star of David, Star of Bethlehem, and the bright morning star are the same star that appears over the same person. The 3 phases of the Christchild. Who was, And is, And is to come!

</DIR>
I personally have a Son and he is my offspring and I am the root from whence he came. Does this mean that David the root is also Christ the offspring??

God did say he would raise up a King from ancient times to be the messiah and redeem his people!

Jeremiah lived about 500 years after David and 500 years BC. Now again I find this scripture interesting!


<DIR>Jer 30:9 But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
</DIR>

This leads me to another question just who exactly is the Anointed FIRSTBORN Son of the living God?
Psalm 89: 19-27 tells me very clearly that is was David that God anointed and chose to be His FIRSTBORN Son.

<DIR>Psa 89:19 Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one; and You said, I have laid help on a mighty one. I have exalted a chosen one from the people.
Psa 89:20 I have found My servant David; I have anointed him with My holy oil.
Psa 89:21 My hand shall be fixed with him; and My arm shall make him strong.
Psa 89:22 An enemy will not exact against him; nor the son of iniquity afflict him.
Psa 89:23 And I will beat down his foes before him, and plague those hating him.
Psa 89:24 But My faithfulness and My mercy is with him; and his horn shall be exalted in My name.
Psa 89:25 And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
Psa 89:26 He shall cry to Me, My Father, You are my God, and the rock of my salvation.
Psa 89:27 And I will make Him My first-born, higher than the kings of the earth. (King of Kings and Lords of Lords)
Psa 89:28 I will keep My mercy for him forever, and My covenant shall hold fast with him.
Psa 89:29 And I have established his Seed forever, and His throne as the days of the heavens.
Psa 89:30 If his sons forsake My Law, and do not walk in My judgments;
Psa 89:31 if they profane My statutes and do not keep My commandments;
Psa 89:32 then I will visit their transgressions with the rod, and their sins with stripes.
Psa 89:33 But I will not annul My mercy from him, and I will not be false in My faithfulness.
Psa 89:34 I will not profane My covenant, nor change what goes from My lips.
Psa 89:35 Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David.
</DIR>

Using the Key of David seems to be opening up many truths and making the bible less confusing for me thats for sure.

What is the key of David?

The holder of the key of David says to the angel of the church in Philadelphia (Philadelphia means ‘freedom’) –

Revelation 3:8 “I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.â€

So why is the church of Philadelphia granted this privilege?

Revelation 3:8 continues - “I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.†(emphasis mine)

So what’s in a name?

Christ says that the only way to the Father is through the Son. Since the only way to the Father is through the Son, it surely is paramount to know exactly who the Son is.

This brings us to the key. A key contains facets. In this case, the key of David contains three facets. Christianity today has only two facets of that key – one is missing. This key with a broken facet will not open any door.

Rev 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.

The three facets are “Holy, holy holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.†(emphasis mine) Christianity knows the who was, as Christ 2000 years ago. Christianity teaches that the who is to come, is the second coming of the Christ-child.

But what if the second coming of Christ is actually the third coming?

Is this possible, and if it is true, what would be the repercussions of the lack of understanding? It would mean that we are missing a vital link to who Christ actually was.

The following Psalm says quite clearly who God chose to be his only anointed FIRSTBORN Son! As it said in the previous post.


Psa 89:19 Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one; and You said, I have laid help on a mighty one. I have exalted a chosen one from the people.
Psa 89:20 I have found My servant David; I have anointed him with My holy oil.
Psa 89:21 My hand shall be fixed with him; and My arm shall make him strong.
Psa 89:22 An enemy will not exact against him; nor the son of iniquity afflict him.
Psa 89:23 And I will beat down his foes before him, and plague those hating him.
Psa 89:24 But My faithfulness and My mercy is with him; and his horn shall be exalted in My name.
Psa 89:25 And I will set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.
Psa 89:26 He shall cry to Me, My Father, You are my God, and the rock of my salvation.
Psa 89:27 And I will make Him My FIRSTBORN, higher than the kings of the earth.
Psa 89:28 I will keep My mercy for him forever, and My covenant shall hold fast with him.
Psa 89:29 And I have established his Seed forever, and His throne as the days of the heavens.

Now refer to -

1Jn 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

How can there be both a ‘firstborn’ and an ‘only begotten’?



What if we take this literally (and shouldn’t we take God’s word literally, rather than second guessing it?)

However, they fail to mention the third facet which is the who was. The key of David explains to us very clearly the person that is the who was in ancient times. Therefore to us who are not on the outside, are not waiting for the second coming of Christ, but the third.

Rev 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

As a Father my self my Son is my offspring and I am the root from which he came.
Christ is the offspring of David, and David would be the root from whence he came!
However Christ in his own testimony is stating that he is both the root and the offspring, meaning that he is the same person. This fulfills the scriptures that God raised up David 1,000 years later as the Christ child.
This is affirmed in the following scripture:-

Jer 30:9 But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
Again confirmed in the new testament:-

Mark 11:9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
Mark 11:10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.


Please note that Jeremiah lived about 500 years after David had fallen asleep.

Christ also stated that he is the likeness of God. If you have seen me you have seen the Father

Psa 17:15 As for me, (David) I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
