<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></b><span style="color: black; font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Recently a
friend of mine posted a picture on Facebook of a group sharing The Gospel in an
open-air meeting overseas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;">My thoughts went to what
Jesus Christ said about The Gospel of The Kingdom will be preached to the whole
world and then the end will come.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My
next thought was, “Is what is being preached The Gospel of The Kingdom?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In
what we call The Lord’s Prayer, the first thing Jesus said we should pray for was
that His Kingdom would come and His will would be done on Earth as it is in
Heaven.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is clear from this that The
Gospel of The Kingdom is more than getting saved from Hell and going to
Heaven.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is about receiving The
Eternal Life of God so we can do our part to bring God’s Kingdom on Earth as it
is in Heaven.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
first thing John the Baptist and Jesus preached was “<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">repent </b>for The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand”. In Matthew 10:7 Christ
told His followers to preach the same thing. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Jesus said that The Kingdom is not a place you
go to, but something that lives within you when you receive His Eternal Life.
The rich young ruler was a good man and a faithful church goer, but he knew
from The Gospel of The Kingdom Jesus preached that something was missing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His question was, “what must I do to inherit
Eternal Life?” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Jesus made it clear in
Luke 14:26, 27, and 33 that there are three things that must be surrendered to
God in order to receive Eternal Life: relationships, goals and ambitions, and
possessions. The Gospel of The Kingdom is a message that leads people to
surrender these things to the Lordship of Christ.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most
people want to escape Hell and go to Heaven.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Some are even willing to say that they believe Jesus died on the cross
for them and say a prayer so they can get there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Saying a prayer won’t get you to Heaven if
there is no repentance or heart surrender. Only through repentance and heart
surrender can you be birthed into God’s Kingdom and receive His Eternal
Life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There is no record in the Bible of
early preachers of The Gospel leading someone in a prayer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Instead they spoke the truth of The Kingdom
in such a way that people would ask them what they needed to do to be saved.
Paul said there were two things he preached everywhere he went, “repentance
toward God and faith in The Lord Jesus Christ”. Many today talk about faith in
Jesus but fail to mention repentance or the need for Christ’s Lordship. Paul
preached these things because he understood that God’s Kingdom is coming on
Earth as it is in Heaven in the hearts of people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He knew that for this to happen there needed
to be deep repentance and a turning away from all that offends God and is
contrary to His Kingdom. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Paul understood
that being birthed into The Kingdom required falling in love with Jesus Christ,
and that the person being birthed must surrender their heart and will to His Lordship.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are many today inside and outside the
church who have not heard The Gospel of The Kingdom.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many would <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">receive </i>The Kingdom if they heard <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">the message of</i> The Kingdom.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This
message is the world’s only hope. It is the only message that will bring God’s
Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When
God’s Kingdom fully comes, there will be peace on Earth and everyone’s needs
will be met.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These things will not
happen any other way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

else.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People who are sold out to Jesus
have no problem helping others to do the same. They automatically love everyone
who loves The Lord, even those who are still growing to know Him. People who
are building their own kingdom find it very difficult to lead people to that
deep commitment they need to have in order to live in unity with the rest of

<div align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: center;">

<b><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></b><b><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span></b><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">As 2018 began we were in an area
of The World closed to the open proclamation of the good news about Jesus. We were praying for God’s Kingdom to come on
Earth as it is in Heaven. God spoke to
my heart that 2018 was a year that people needed to focus on The Eternal
Kingdom. They needed to make the
establishing of God’s Kingdom in the hearts of all mankind their number one
priority.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">It is easy to get caught up in the busyness of life. Things
like finances, health issues, retirement, and personal needs can keep us from
focusing on The Kingdom. God’s promise to us is that if we make His Kingdom our
number one priority He will take care of all these other things. We know a couple
who are retirement age. They have made
God’s Kingdom their number one priority most of their adult life. They lived
for years with no regular income trusting God to meet each need as they sought
to fulfill His purpose for their lives. Now that they are in their retirement
years they have more than they need even though they never worried about
retirement.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">God is faithful. He is
calling every follower of Jesus to make living for The Kingdom their number one
priority. This means more than just
going to church meetings or serving in some church organization. It means
living each day seeking to hear God’s voice and doing what He wants us to do so
people will become part of The Eternal Kingdom through a commitment to follow
Jesus with all their heart. If we will
do this He will meet all the other needs which distract from living for The
Kingdom.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

living word Jesus enters it by The Spirit, and gives it eternal life. Jesus called this new birth, or being born
again. When a person is truly born again, God’s Kingdom comes to earth in their
heart. That person will seek to know
God. They will meditate on His Word, The
Bible, and apply it to their life. They will also learn to hear and obey the
voice of The Holy Spirit. Most of all
they will seek to fulfill God’s purpose for their life instead of living to
satisfy their personal desires. If this

AND THE KINGDOM <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Seek
peace and pursue it; but understand that The Kingdom of God is forcefully advancing,
and violent people are attacking it. For
this reason you need to be prepared with funds, a “Go” bag and a weapon.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Do
not concern yourself with worldly needs, but seek to help people become part of
The Eternal Kingdom. As you go about your daily life help people see The
Kingdom by what you say and do. Work for justice. “Help the down-and-out. Stand
up for the homeless. Fight for the defenseless.</span> <span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">You’re here to defend the
defenseless, to make sure that underdogs get a fair break.” “Rescue the poor
and helpless; deliver them from the grasp of evil people. Your job is to stand up for the powerless,
and act against all those who exploit them." If you see a person being attacked by evil
people and do nothing to help them, does God’s love dwell in you?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;"> Remember whatever you do in word and deed must
not be done for selfish reasons, but to bring glory to God. “Do your best, prepare for the worst—then
trust GOD to bring victory.” “The world
is unprincipled. It’s dog-eat-dog out there! The world doesn’t fight fair.” God
teaches us how to fight the battles we face in life. As followers of Jesus “we don’t live or fight
our battles the world’s way—never have and never will. The tools of our trade aren’t for marketing
or manipulation, but they are for demolishing that entire massively corrupt
culture. We use our powerful God-tools
for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the
truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the
structure of life shaped by Christ.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">“Our
tools are ready at hand for clearing the ground of every obstruction and
building lives of obedience into maturity.
That about wraps it up. God is strong, and He wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for
you, well-made weapons of the best materials. And put them to use so you will
be able to stand up to everything the devil throws your way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that
we’ll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps,
a life-or-death fight to the finish against the devil and all his angels. Be
prepared. You’re up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all
the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it’s all over
but the shouting you’ll still be on your feet.
Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more than words.
Learn how to apply them. You’ll need them throughout your life. God’s Word is
an indispensable weapon. In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing
warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes
open. Keep each other’s spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="background-color: #fff2cc; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><u>NOTE:</u> Some reading this message may be
concerned about Luke 22:36. It seems to stand in direct contradiction to
Matthew 26:52. From experience we should know when two scriptures seem to
contradict each other that there is a deeper truth somewhere. It can only
be found by searching out other scriptures. If Jesus literally meant that
everyone who used earthly weapons to fight would die by those weapons many good
men would die violent deaths. David, a man of war, died peacefully in His
bed. The traditional understanding of Matthew is better stated “Those who
live by the sword shall die by the sword.” A deeper study of the words used
there allow for this interpretation. As we understand it Jesus was
rebuking Peter for depending on the arm of flesh rather than allowing himself
to be guided by The Spirit. Being led of The Spirit does not mean we
can’t use things of this world when fighting our battles. It does mean we
must seek God in every earthly battle we fight. From scripture we see
that King David did this in his earthly battles with the Philistines.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<b><span style="background-color: #fff2cc; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">We have tried to make it clear in “Violence
and The Kingdom;” that all we do must be done for God’s Glory and His
Kingdom. There can be no fear or self-motive in the way we react in the
battles we fight on earth. That being said, it is clear from scripture
that we have a God given responsibility to protect and fight for our families
and those God places in our sphere of influence, from the attacks of the enemy
of men’s souls. Not fighting in the flesh doesn’t mean we passively sit there
and do nothing expecting God to send a lightning bolt from heaven. We must seek
God’s wisdom, and do what we can do, trusting God to do the rest.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<b><span style="background-color: #fff2cc; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Having a weapon or not having a weapon won’t
keep us from reacting carnally when we’re attacked. Only learning to walk
in The Spirit instead of the flesh will do that. Peter seems to have
learned this lesson when he spoke death over Ananias and Sapphira; something
much more severe than cutting off an ear, but okay because it was done in The
Spirit. Walking across India carrying a large cross, we were confronted
on more than one occasion by the radical Hindus. On every occasion God
gave us victory. One time a large group rode up on motorcycles and
scooters. I could hear them coming up behind me and one of our coworkers
whispered, “the radical Hindus are here”. I prayed and God led me to wait
until they were almost upon me. When they were within a few feet I
stopped, and without thinking lifted the cross off the ground and into the air.
Then I stood it up in front of me. The crowd instantly stopped in their
tracks. I looked at the person who The Spirit told me was the leader, and
asked, “Sir what is your question?” He stood silent for a few seconds and
then said to me, “I just want to tell you how happy we are to have you here in
India.” The crowd turned around, got on their cycles and scooters and
left. God had delivered us one more time.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<b><span style="background-color: #fff2cc; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Jesus told us we need to have a weapon for a
reason. It doesn’t mean we must use it to harm people, although we cannot
say ahead of time what God’s Spirit might prompt us to do. Part of God’s
judgments is the release of wild beasts on the earth. In 2013 there were
50,000 abandoned dogs roaming the streets of Detroit in packs of 20. The
Post Office could not even deliver the mail in some places because of the
danger. Only an assault weapon, which many want banned, can handle that
kind of danger. As we see it, if Jesus said we need a weapon then it was
for a reason. All we can do is obey and trust God to give us the
understanding of how to use it.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

violence and The Kingdom. God is loving,
merciful and gracious in all His ways, but He is not a pacifist. Psalms 24:8
tells us He is mighty in battle against all that resist His Kingdom. Even
Jesus became violent when He saw His Father’s house being desecrated. Let

<b><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">The army of God was on the other side of
the mountain hiding from God’s enemy who challenged them daily to come out and
fight. Finally one young lad who had a
heart after God ran to meet the enemy and defeated him with one smooth
stone. Unfortunately, in many ways this
is a picture of much of The Church today; especially in the so called Western World.
Many who say they are a Christian are
going about their daily lives consumed by their own self desires. They see the enemy wreaking havoc on the
world, but are hiding from the battle. They are hoping Jesus will return and
take them out before things get to bad.
Try telling the Christians in China, India, Iran, and other places that
Jesus will return before it gets bad. They will laugh at you.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS";">God’s Word says that Jesus came to destroy
the works of the enemy of men’s souls.
Jesus said that the people who truly follow Him will do the works that
He did. Christ did not plan for us to hide
from or run away from the enemy. He left
us His battle plan so we can defeat evil here and now, and establish His
Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven. What was The Eternal Kings battle
plan? Go and make disciples! Not converts who want a fire insurance policy
to escape Hell and go to Heaven, but disciples who have totally surrendered
their heart and life to Jesus. Before we
can go and make disciples we must be a disciple. What does that mean? We must repent of all self-desire because we
want Christ’s Kingdom to come on Earth as it is in Heaven. Only then can our
heart, mind, soul, and spirit become part of The Eternal Kingdom. If we are part of God’s Kingdom, we will run
to the battle against the tide of evil that is sweeping the Earth. Because of
Christ’s work on The Cross we will overcome and defeat the enemy’s work in our
life. Our testimony will help others
defeat the enemy in their lives.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

discipline My Church. Though I begin with

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: blue; font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">The so called “Western World” is suddenly
being flooded with refugees; mostly from Muslim countries. As we shared in our
messages on understanding God’s judgements, He is in charge of everything. This includes this flood of refugees. People coming from Muslim countries are
nothing new. There has been a trickle
for a number of years. Now there is a
flood. Why?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Jesus left us with instructions to go into
the entire world, preach the good news about Jesus, and make disciples. Could our failure to do this be the reason He
is sending this flood of refugees? Some
would say that we have gone into the world with the gospel. The question is, “have we made it the
priority God intended it to be?” The fact, that less than 10% of The Churches
income worldwide is spent on missions, indicates we are not as concerned about
reaching the unsaved as Christ would want us to be. Jesus said that where our
money (treasure) is indicates where our heart is. The spending, of many who call themselves Christian,
demonstrates that they are more concerned about their own personal comfort than
in reaching the world with the news of The Kingdom.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">Could it be that our love of this world
causes us to react in fear instead of faith when we see those who may want to
destroy us headed our way? God has not
given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. The Spirit of
love can only empower us when we love God and His Kingdom more than we love
ourselves and the things of this world.
This Spirit will cause us to see this flood of refugees as an opportunity
to reach souls who have not heard about Jesus with the good news of The
Kingdom.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Cooper Black', serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;">The time has come for those who call
themselves Christian to change their priorities. God’s commission to The Church
has not changed. God’s people must
abandon their love of this world and minister to the people He sends to us.
If we do this, we will be blessed. If we don't, the situation will
destroy us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

previous messages we talked about what it meant to be spiritually ready to
survive God’s judgements. An ongoing
relationship with God The Father through Jesus The Son is the key to surviving
any catastrophe that comes our way. If
everything we have is truly surrendered to Him, we will be prepared to leave it
all on a moment’s notice, and go where Jesus tells us to go. The early church in Acts 8 had to do
that. The apostle Paul also had to do it
numerous times. God does not want us to
be unprepared to leave on a moment’s notice at the leading of His Spirit. His instructions to His disciples in Luke
22:36 make that clear. Being ready to survive disasters requires not only
spiritual, but physical and material preparation.<o:p></o:p></span></b><br />

Mankind was headed for eternal destruction along with satan. Yet God in His infinite knowledge and wisdom already had a plan to restore man to obedient fellowship with Him. What was God’s plan? God himself would become a man, die an agonizing death on a cruel cross, and defeat satan. Every person who believed this would be restored to fellowship with God. They would be able to grow to know God and overcome satan’s deceptions. God’s Spirit speaks to the heart of every person telling them about this plan. All through history the people who have sought fellowship with God have trusted in this plan, even those who lived before Jesus Christ came. They will survive God’s judgements. This plan defeated satan. It is redeeming from creation all that is part of God’s Eternal Kingdom which satan stole when he rebelled against God. </span></b></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">What people must realize is that mankind at its best
won’t scratch the surface of what an all knowing God understands. That is why Jehovah God left us a book called
The Bible. Those who acknowledge that
God exists and seek Him with all their heart will definitely find Him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Cooper Black","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The sad thing is that many who claim to be followers of
Jesus choose to believe ignorant man rather than God’s Word when deciding what
is true. They think somehow God got it
wrong when He wrote The Bible. They
trust in flesh and blood rather than the Spirit of God. The result is they cannot understand or
inherit the things of The Kingdom.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

ignorance of foolish men to pervert the truth of God and spread unbelief. Only those who trust God with all their heart
can inherit His Kingdom. If you want to
be part of God’s Kingdom, seek to know God.
Do not depend on scientific knowledge.
It will change. God never does.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Making Disciples</span></b><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> requires that God’s Church work
together as a team. The evangelist, the teacher,
the pastor, the helper and others all have their part to play. Don’t say you
can’t fulfill God’s purpose because you have no talent. God placed each one of
us on earth with the talents we need to do what He asked us to do. We must ask Him to show us what our specific purpose
is and reveal to us the talents we have that will fulfill that purpose. By
using our talents to fulfill God’s purpose we bring glory to Him and receive
eternal rewards.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
