Once upon A time there was an eternal kingdom

Once upon A time there was an eternal king

 HIS KINGDOM IS ETERNAL  IT HAS EXISTED EVEN BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD I AM  THIS ETERNAL KING IS THE GREAT I AM AS HE INTRODUCED HIMSELF TO MOSES  HIS KINGDOM REIGNS FOREVER AND EVER OVER ALL THE UNIVERSES

HE HEADED AN ANGELIC REBELLION AND WAS CAST OUT FROM HEAVEN WITH THOSE ANGELS

GOD CREATED THE WORLD AND PUT ADAM AND EVE OVER HIS CREATION. THEY WERE EXPECTED TO ADVANCE THE KINGDOM OF GOD ON EARTH

BUT THEY FAILED, AND OPENED THE DOOR OF GOD’S CREATION TO THE REBELLION AGAINST THE KINGDOM OF GOD

PSALMS 2 HIS KINGDOM IS PROPHESIED

"I have installed my King on Zion, my holy hill." 6 "I have installed my King on Zion, my holy hill." 7 I will proclaim the decree of the LORD : He said to me, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father. 8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. 9 You will rule them with an iron scepter; you will dash them to pieces like pottery."

(kingship) And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace (wisdom, power, peace)

In spite of all the prophecies and signs spoken before hand by the prophets

FROM THE ROOT AND STUMP OF JESSE

Isaiah 11:1-5- A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him-- the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD--and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked. Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist. Word in 700 B.C.

Romans 15:12 And again, Isaiah says, "The Root of Jesse will spring up, one who will arise to rule over the nations; the Gentiles will hope in him."

Matthew 1:1, 6, 16: A record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ the son of David and Jesse the father of King David. …and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Matthew 2:1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem

In spite of His precursor’s message: THE VOICE

His mission was to prepare the way for the arrival of the King

 A voice of one calling: 'In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.'"

 "See, I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come," says the Lord Almighty."

 In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the Desert of Judea and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:  "A voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.' (Isa 40:3)."

The king was coming and should have been recognized and accepted as the king promised by God; The prophecies were very clear and were been truly fulfilled.

Israel rebelled against the King, plotted against Him with the rulers of the earth, and crucified Him.

Israel despised the divine signs, the prophecies and the prophet’s warnings

 TO CONQUER GOD’S KINGDOM ON EARTH IN 2 PHASES:  1 st arrival in Bethlehem 2000 years ago- recorded in History  2 nd arrival in Israel in the future, after the prophetic signs: the birth pains period followed by the tribulation and world war against Israel

 1 ST PHASE: THE COMING OF THE KING AS THE SAVIOR OF HUMANITY FROM THE REBELLION AGAINST GOD. HE CALLED THE PEOPLE OUT OF THE WORLD TO BECOME THE PEOPLE OF GOD.  For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, (Col. 1:13)

(Eph. 3:10)

ANNOUNCES  THE CHURCH ANNOUNCES THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM IN A PROPHETIC WAY AS THE PROPHETS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT DID:  1ST PHASE: JESUS HAS ALREADY COME HUMBLY AS A MAN TO RESCUE US  2 ND PHASE: HE IS COMING BACK AS THE ETERNAL KING AND IN GLORY announces  The church announces: publicizes the heavenly decree and makes it known

 2nd PHASE: THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST AS THE ETERNAL KING.

AND THE CHURCH WILL REIGN WITH HIM

 "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.”

 “Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be handed over to the saints, the people of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.”

 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever." And the twenty- four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and have begun to reign.

 The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great— and for destroying those who destroy the earth."
