KINGDOM OF GOD-10 "Jesus & Pilate"
Sunday Aug 30, 2020
Sunday Aug 30, 2020
John 18:33-38 So Pilate went back into the governor’s residence, summoned Jesus, and asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
Jesus replied, “Are you saying this on your own initiative, or have others told you about me?”
Pilate answered, “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own people and your chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?”
Jesus replied, “My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my servants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jewish authorities. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.”
Then Pilate said, “So you are a king!”
Jesus replied, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I was born, and for this reason I came into the world—to testify to the TRUTH. Everyone who BELONGS to the TRUTH listens to my voice.”
Pilate asked, “What is TRUTH?”
The K’dom of Darkness and the K’dom of Light come Face-to-face in this remarkable encounter between Pontius Pilate and Jesus Christ. GOD brings Pilate, as the representative of all worldly kingdoms OF DARKNESS, into direct confrontation with His K’dom of LIGHT. Pilate thinks that he represents everything that is REAL and MEANINGFUL. He’s baffled at Jesus lack of effort to save Himself by taking refuge under his authority. He thinks Jesus is about to Lose Everything, and has no clue that Jesus is about to take over the world! By refusing to put Himself under the authority of the Kingdom of Darkness in order to be saved, Jesus both saves Himself and every human who will follow Him into the KOG!

THE KINGDOM OF GOD-9 "Upon On This Rock"

Sunday Aug 23, 2020
Matt. 16:15-19 Jesus said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and UPON THIS ROCK I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will GIVE YOU the KEYS of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
There is a Rock of Revelation that Hell cannot prevail against. Inside every Petros (a single life touched by GOD) there’s a PETRA, a massive spiritual Revelation of Christ the King and His K’dom.

KINGDOM OF GOD-8 "On Earth!"
Sunday Aug 16, 2020

Matt. 6:10 (PRAY)…May your kingdom come, may your will be done ON EARTH as it is in heaven.
I want to develop the thought that Earth was created to be the home of the KOG.
FIRST let’s start with the fact that the physical world is eternal…
Psa. 78:69 the earth he has established forever.
Eccl. 1:4 A generation goes, and a generation comes, but the earth remains forever.
NEXT, consider that Mankind is a Hybrid creation; the Dust of Earth mixed with the Spirit of GOD. He is formed from the dust of Earth, designed in a physical body, to be at home in the physical world, and have Dominion over it.
Gen. 1:26-28 Then God said, “Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness, so they may HAVE DOMINION…over all the earth…”
Psa. 115:16 The highest heaven belongs to the Lord, but he has given the earth to the descendants of Adam.

THE KINGDOM OF GOD-7 "The War of Words"
Sunday Aug 09, 2020
Sunday Aug 09, 2020
Luke 17:20-21 Now at one point the Pharisees asked Jesus when the kingdom of God was coming, so he answered, “The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed, nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is in your midst (is already among you).”
To properly understand Jesus’ answer you have to understand the Pharisees’ and their question…
Who were the Pharisees? They were the Rulers of Their Society.
The Pharisees had devised a complex network of rules that controlled family, business, speech, and thought. They began as a moral revolution and quickly morphed into the Ruling Class of an oppressive Nanny State. They had the power to classify you as a Saint or make you out to be a Devil. The people secretly hated them but they gave into their demands out of fear of being banded from society as an outcast or stoned to death. The Pharisees were the Architects and Enforcers of a highly refined System of Words that guaranteed moral superiority, but ultimately imprisoned the entire society.

KINGDOM OF GOD-6 "Kingdoms in Conflict"
Sunday Aug 02, 2020
Sunday Aug 02, 2020
Matt. 13:44 The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
THE KEY: Jesus is The Treasure and The Kingdom of GOD is The Field, the Environment of the K’dom. The one who found Jesus sold all to possess His K’dom; for to truly possess the blessings of the King you must live under the Authority of His Kingdom.
After preaching the Gospel in cities of the Roman Empire Paul is beaten by mobs and left for dead. But he recovers and tells the Christians that, “We must enter the kingdom of God through many persecutions.” — Acts 14:22
Why does the Gospel of Jesus’ Love and Forgiveness draw persecution? Because Jesus is connecting people with the KOG, instead of endorsing the K’dom of the World.
