God’s Word Interprets God’s Word

John 18:36

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would have fought that I might not be delivered up to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here.

Comment

Since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, giving his allegiance to the Devil and following after his desires by his fallen nature, all the kingdoms of the earth have followed after the thinking and the doing of the god of this age; the Devil.

Since Jesus Christ’s resurrection and ascension, Jesus is now ruling at the right hand of God until He will put all enemies at His feet. He has conquered sin and death for All the Father gave Him to be saved and raised by Him on the last day; conditioned on His atoning justifying shed blood and His imputed righteousness alone.

John 16:33

Comment– Below in Matthew 4:8-11 we see the kingdoms of the earth glorify the Devil

Matthew 4:8-11

Again the Devil takes Him to a very high mountain, and he showed to Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

And he said to Him. I will give all these things to You if falling down, You will worship me.

Then Jesus said to him, Go, Satan! For it has been written: “You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve Him only.” Deut. 6:13

Then the Devil left Him. And behold! Angels came near and ministered to Him.

Comment – Resist the devil and he will flee from you James 4:7 We resist the devil through knowing scripture through the power of the Holy Spirit by God’s work of faith in His people Matthew 1:21-23 conditioned on the work and person of Jesus Christ alone. All His promised justified people by Jesus Christ will live by faith that salvation is conditioned on the work and person of Jesus Christ alone. They will strive to keep His commandments of loving the true God and their neighbor as thyself. Romans 1:16-17 Hebrews 9:22 Romans 4:3-8 John 14:15 Matthew 22:36-40 Philippians 4:13

Jesus lived the perfect life; shed His atoning blood and imputed His perfect righteousness to His people’s account at the time they received God given faith in this Gospel that salvation is conditioned on the work and person of Jesus Christ alone. Jesus Christ was God incarnate

John 1:1-14,18

God promises to save His people from their sins conditioned on the work and person of Jesus Christ alone and all His promised people will come to the knowledge of the truth of this Gospel and be saved; sometime between conception and physical death.

His people were chosen unconditionally from before the foundation of the world according to purpose. His people are taken from every nation, even tribe, language and people. All others were reprobated being those that Jesus Christ did not represent in His death, perfect life lived and His resurrection.

They will know they have no righteousness of their own to satisfy God and that only God is good. His promised people taken from every nation, even tribe, language and people will ask for mercy to be saved through the work and person of Jesus Christ

Luke 18:19 Luke 18:13 Hebrews 4:14-16 Romans 9:8 2 Corinthians 4:6 Romans 1:16-17 Romans 3 Hebrews 9:22 Hebrews 9:12 Isaiah 53 John 1:1-3,14,18 2 Thessalonians 2:13 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 John 6:35-65 Romans 3:10-12 Galatians 2:16 Romans 8:7-9 Mark 16:16 Hebrews 11:6 Revelation 5:9,7:9

Matthew 1:21-23 Romans 4:3-8 John 6:29 Ephesians 2:8-10 Romans 8:28-30 Isaiah 53 Hebrews 9:22

Jesus satisfied a holy and righteous God’s justice as the perfect substitute for all who the Father gave to Him to save and raise up on the last day. Romans 3:26 John 6:35-65 Isaiah 45:21

He resurrected from the dead on the 3rd day according to scripture and ascended to the right hand of God. For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death.

Acts 1:11 Acts 7:55-56 1 Corinthians 15:25-26 1 Corinthians 15:4

He conquered death and sin and ascended to the right hand of God for His people waiting for His return when the corruptible will be made incorruptible giving them a resurrected spiritual sinless body when He sets up His Kingdom with the New Heaven and New Earth that will no longer be degenerate.

Now, God is bringing this fallen degenerate world to a close.

1 Peter 3:22

who going into Heaven is at the right of God, the angels, and authorities, and powers being subjected to Him.

Luke 22:30

that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom; and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Comment God is bringing His plan for the fall of man, under the rule of the Devil, and His plan of salvation closer to the end during which time he will complete bringing all His children of promise from every nation, tribe, tongue and people to a full knowledge of truth that salvation is conditioned on the work and person of Jesus Christ alone received by God given faith. When the end is near, God will put into the hearts of the kings of the earth to give their kingdom to the beast.

Revelation 17:17

For God gave into their hearts to do His mind, and to act in one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

Comment

Since Jesus said the following

“My kingdom is not of this world”

Then :

Any kingdom building on earth before the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ is being built by Satan. All part of God’s plan to justly damn those that did not love the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and had pleasure in unrighteousness

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10

Revelation 17:17

For God gave into their hearts to do His mind, and to act in one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

Comment

Beware of the mark of the beast coming which is a controlled legislative system of works righteousness ecumenically bringing together all false worshipping religions under one whore world religion contrary to the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Satan will demand and legislate ecumenical whore worship of false doctrine through his beast system of representatives giving their allegiance to him and if you don’t submit to false doctrinal worship, you won’t be able to buy or sell. Revelation 13:17

Why will they legislate a form of religious worship? They will legislate because believers of sound doctrine and the Gospel of Jesus Christ conditioning salvation on Christ’s work and person alone won’t conform and follow and Satan wants to be worshipped.

Jesus said narrow is the way that leads to life and wide is way that leads to destruction and many will go in the wide path that leads to destruction. Matthew 7:13-14

Most people will think the controlled beast system will be a wonderful thing because it satisfies the fleshly mind and they never paid attention, or understood or believed God’s word just like Eve through Adam who listened to the voice of his wife. They loved this sinful world; the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life which is not from God; but from the world.

Revelation 14:9-11 Revelation 13:4 Revelation 17:8 Genesis 3:17

Satan’s beast system will not hold to the scriptural fact that salvation is solely and only conditioned on God’s promise to save His people from their sins conditioned on Jesus Christ’s atoning shed blood and His imputed righteousness alone without effort or work from His unconditionally chosen people from before the foundation of the world.

Belief in this Gospel that saves is received by faith; faith that is worked by God and given by God by Grace alone through the work and person of Jesus Christ alone and given only to all the Father gives to Jesus Christ who are generated by God through the sovereign spirit blowing where it wills; irrespective of man’s efforts or work.

Jesus said He would build His church and the gates of hades would not be victorious over that happening.

God doesn’t legislate worship. He changes hearts that change the will and thoughts and understanding that salvation would not be possible without His atoning shed blood and His imputed righteousness alone because we can’t produce a righteousness to satisfy God’s holy and righteous justice.

John 3:3,5,8

John 6:35-65 Matthew 16:16-19 Romans 1:16-17 2 Corinthian 4:6 2 Thessalonians 2:13 Philippians 1:16, 2:13

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. ( not through any man or beast system on earth)

Please take note of Proverbs 16:4 and Romans 9:21-24

Proverbs 16:4

God has made all for His purpose even the wicked for the day of evil.

Romans 9:21-24

Or does not the potter have authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make one vessel to honor, and (make) one to dishonor?

But if God, desiring to display wrath and to make His power known, endured in much long suffering vessels of wrath having been fitted out for destruction,

and (in order that) or (so that) that He make known the riches of His glory on vessels of mercy which He before prepared for glory,

whom He also called not only us, of Jews, but also out of nations.

Romans 1:16-17

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to everyone believing, both to Jew first, and to Greek;

for in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; even as it has been written, “But the just shall live by” “faith.” Hab. 2:4

John 6:47

Truly, truly, I say to you, the one believing into Me has everlasting life.

Matthew 10:33 ( KJV)

But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

Galatians 1:8

But even if we, or an angel (Alien, messenger) out of Heaven, should announce a gospel to you beside what we preached to you, let him be accursed.

All was predetermined by God before the foundation of the world for His glory and honor demonstrating all His attributes to His creation. Daniel 4:35 Isaiah 46:10

Revelation 4:11

Lord, You are worthy to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because You created all things, and through Your will they exist and were created.
