The Daily Word of Righteousness
Four Aspects of the Kingdom of God, #6
Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely: (Jeremiah 32:37)
The current attempt to remove physical Israel from the spiritual kingdom of God is of Satan, who understands from the Scriptures that in the last days God will bring physical Israel from the countries where they have been scattered. After Israel has been gathered to the Lord in Jerusalem the time will be at hand for the appearing of Christ and His saints to set up the spiritual kingdom, the Throne of God, in the physical city of Jerusalem. Then Satan's liberty in the earth will be at an end. Therefore Satan will continue to attempt to convince the Christians that God has no further interest in physical Israel as far as His heavenly Kingdom is concerned.
The one Kingdom of God is announced in the following passage, and is always for the physical Jew before it is for any other race of people.
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. (Daniel 2:44)
The coming of the Kingdom of God, of Heaven, began when the Lord Jesus rose from the dead. The Kingdom shall exist forever. One must be born again of God in order to see or enter the Kingdom.
Neither the kingdom of David nor the kingdom of Solomon was the Kingdom of God, although they were forerunners of the Kingdom. The Kingdom of God is the Throne of the eternal David, that is, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. (Isaiah 9:7)
The one Kingdom of God is governed by the will of God as it is revealed in Christ in the saints.
The Kingdom of Heaven is not destined to be located in Heaven but on the earth. The Kingdom is in Heaven now because the Lord Jesus is in Heaven. The Kingdom also is in the hearts of the saints on the earth. Soon the King of the Kingdom, the Lord Jesus, is coming to establish His Kingdom on this earth.
The throne of the Kingdom is the Throne of God. King Jesus sits in that throne. We have been invited by the Lord Jesus to sit with Him in His throne.
The Throne of God and the Lamb are in the new Jerusalem.
And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: (Revelation 22:3)
The new Jerusalem is the Israel of God, the Tabernacle of God, the Wife of the Lamb, the Body of Christ. The new Jerusalem shall abide forever on the new earth.
The Lord Jesus has brought Jew and Gentile together in one new Man, one Temple of God, one Israel of God.
