One of the greatest mind blowing revelations in our days is the Kingdom of God. We owe our Christian faith and belief to the Jews. So the God of Hebrews is our God, we Gentiles who worshiped idols that were not God at all. That is, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the true God. And the Holy Bible addressing the Jews has become our daily devotional in search of this true God. So the thought of a Kingdom of God has to do with the Jews. Indeed Jesus Christ is the King of the Jews-by dying on the cross, He established an invisible Kingdom and reconciled Jews to the Father and us Gentiles who believe in Him as the Son of God. Surely Christ made peace between man and God-making Jews and Gentiles ONE; such that in Christ, there is no Jews nor Gentiles; we all are one in Christ Jesus. My heart is for you all following these notes praying that the Holy Spirit, whom the world cannot receive because they do not know Him, reveals to you this mysterious Kingdom that is ongoing and it transcends every walks of life ; careers, sports, politics, social media, family, religion, education, science, art, governments, culture.... and rules over everything! The thought of the Kingdom resonates soundly in Jews culture for they long to see their Kingdom restored to them according to the Scriptures. During Jesus Christ’s time, the Jews were under the reign of Roman Empire and they asked Jesus Christ, ‘If you are the Messiah, are you the King of the Jews? ‘Even when Jesus was about to ascend to heaven and told those Jews who believed Him not to depart from Jerusalem until they be endued with power from above, the Jews asked Him, “Will you at this time restore the Kingdom to the Jews?” In these last days before Christ’s returns, the Jews anticipate so see restoration of a Kingdom like that of King David. Jesus Christ said His Kingdom is not of this world systems. Thus in this short note, I seek to exemplify what Kingdom Jesus Christ came to initiate and what Kingdom manifestation we expect in these last days as we usher in the Millennial Reign of Christ Jesus, the Messiah, King of kings and Lord of lords. These notes are intended to expose the hidden truth of the Kingdom of God to those that it has been intended. As you read, may you desire, hunger and thirst to enter the Kingdom of God right now , by becoming born again, paving way for us to eventually reign with Christ Jesus, the Messiah, and the King of kings for a thousand years in Jerusalem at the appointed timing of the Father in Heaven.
