The Gospel of the Kingdom!
The Gospel of the Kingdom!
What is the Gospel of the Kingdom? It’s declaring the Good News of the Righteousness (LAWS/TRUTH) of the Most HIGH GOD and the Truth of His Anointed Son Savior (Mashayach Ban Yashai) as the Scripture has stated!
Matthew 24:1-14 – Vs. 1. And Yashai (Savior) went out, and departed from the temple: and His disciples came to Him for to shew Him the buildings of the temple. 2. And Yashai said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3. And as He sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4. And Yashai answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5. For many shall come in My Name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8. All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for My Name's sake. 10. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be Saved. 14. And this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Our Lord Yashai (Savior) has pointed out several things for us to be aware of. First, we are Not to put our hopes in the things of the world including the beautiful architecture of what we see and love because it will not last. In addition, in our day (end times) there will be wars & rumors of wars, hatred & betrayals including with family members, and different weather patterns in unusual/divers locations. Also, many will come in His Name Christ, saying they’re Christ-ians (Christians) and deceive many (different denominations/false doctrines)! So, we ought to be aware of False doctrines (traditions) of men because it will become an obstacle (stumbling block) towards our Salvation! Therefore, the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven must be preached throughout the world unto all nations as a witness before the consummation (end) comes; this Gospel is what we should learn and keep every day while we endure until the end so that we can walk into the Kingdom of GOD (Heaven)!!!
What is a Gospel? Announcing good news – To declare glad tidings!
**Strong’s Concordance #G2097 – From G2095 and G32; to announce good news (“evangelize”) especially the gospel: - declare, bring (declare, show) glad (good) tidings, preach (the gospel).
**Strong’s Concordance #G2098 – Gospel – From the same as G2097; a good message, that is, the gospel: - gospel.
Mark 1:14-15 – Vs.14. Now after that John was put in prison, Yashai came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15. And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Here, the scripture is showing us that after John the Baptist was put into prison, Yashai started His Ministry! Everything had to be restored through John the Baptist (the Laws & the Prophets) prior to him being sent to prison in order to set the path straight for the Messiah (ha-Mashayach). Yashai didn’t waste any time after that with starting His Ministry and He did so by announcing the Good News that the Kingdom of GOD is coming, and with that we need to Repent from our Sins and believe the Good News (Gospel)!!!
What are we Repenting from? Sin! What is Sin?
1st John 3:4 – Whosoever committeth (do the acts of) sin transgresseth (break) also the Law: for sin is the transgression (breaking) of the Law. When we commit sin then we are breaking the Laws of the Most HIGH which means the Laws are not done away with nor was it nailed to the cross!
Matthew 10:1-7 – Vs. 1. And when He had called unto Him His twelve disciples, He gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. 2. Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3. Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4. Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. 5. These twelve Yashai sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7. And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Before Yashai started His ministry, He put together His chosen disciples to teach the things they learned from Him; He gave His twelve disciples several gifts including the gift of healing (curing all manner of diseases and disorders). Christ Yashai commanded them to go to the children of Israel (the lost sheep) and be a shepherd unto them by teaching them Righteousness (Laws) of GOD, and healing their sicknesses!
Matthew 15:24 – But He answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Yashai is explaining who He was sent for to be saved (the nation of Israel) which was commanded by the Most HIGH GOD. These lost sheep of Israel also include those who were brought up in the Gentile customs/traditions not knowing they’re Jews, the chosen people (Saints) of the Most HIGH Power (His Saints-Psalm 50:5)!!!
Matthew 10:7-8 – Vs. 7. And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. 8. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Ha-Mashayach Yashai (The Anointed Savior) gave these commands to His disciples to fulfill, and so to freely share these gifts because it was freely given to them! He commanded them to preach that the Kingdom of Heaven is coming, to heal the sick, cleanse those with leprosy, raise the dead, and cast out devils (unclean spirits).
Matthew 10:7-14 – Vs. 7. And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. 8. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. 9. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10. Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. 11. And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. 12. And when ye come into an house, salute (greet) it. 13. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. And as ye go, preach, saying, The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Yashai (Savior) Christ gave instructions to His disciples for when they’re out preaching the Gospel; they’re not to bring anything extra of what they may need because it will be provided unto them throughout their journeys. This is also teaching us that we will be provided of whatever we need, so not to worry about lacking anything but to have Faith because our HOLY Father in heaven will provide all of our needs!
Matthew 6:30-33 – Vs. 30. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass (Grains: Wheat, Barley, Corn, etc.) of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31. Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32. (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His Righteousness (Laws); and all these things shall be added unto you. Here, the Messiah (Ha-Mashayach) is teaching us to not worry (stress) about our needs, but rather seek the Kingdom of GOD first, and the Most HIGH will supply all our needs!
Luke 12:29-30 – Vs. 29. And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. 30. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. This is another scripture reminding us to not worry about things, but to have faith because the Most HIGH is our ever present help for all of our necessities!
Revelation 2:9 – I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Yashai knows our works, troubles, and poverty, and those who pretend to be the True Jews from Judea but are only converts. However, we are still rich in the Word and Righteousness of the Most HIGH, so let us keep (obey) His sayings and endure unto the end!
John 7:16-19 – Vs. 16. Yashai answered them, and said, My doctrine is not Mine, but His (the Father’s) that sent Me. 17. If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of Myself. 18. He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh His Glory (the Father’s) that sent Him (Christ Savior), the same is True, and no unrighteousness is in Him (Savior). 19. Did not Moses give you the Law, and yet none of you keepeth the Law? Why go ye about to kill me? The doctrine that Yashai Christ taught was the Righteousness of the Most HIGH GOD. He was teaching the people to keep the Laws and to not break them anymore, so being that He was sent directly from the Most HIGH makes His Doctrine TRUTH.
John 5:39 – Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have Eternal Life: and they are they which testify of Me. Here, the Mashayach Yashai (Anointed Savior) is saying to search (study) the scriptures because the Prophets spoke/wrote of Him. For in the scriptures, you will come to the realization that you can get Eternal Life through Him, the Savior (ha-Yashai)!!!
John 5:43-47 – Vs. 43. I am come in My Father's Name (I AM SAVIOR = AHHAYAH YASHAI), and ye receive Me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 44. How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only? 45. Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. 46. For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed Me: for he wrote of Me. 47. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe My Words? The Messiah was speaking to the non-believers who only believed in the Torah (Thawarah/Law) and not in Him even though Moses and the other Prophets wrote of Him. The same rings true in our time because there are still non-believers of Christ who only believe in Moses while overlooking what was written of the Messiah; this also includes non-believers of the Law and only in Christ. Unfortunately, they’re not searching the scriptures, but instead, cherry picking the scriptures for their own liking/agendas! We Must have both; the Righteousness (Laws) of the Most HIGH and having the belief of Christ Savior (Yashai).
Luke 12:31-32 – Vs. 31. But rather seek ye the Kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. 32. Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. For when we seek the Kingdom of GOD, we are then Blessed with the things that we need in this current world and the new world to come because the Most HIGH is our provider, protector, healer, and redeemer; for it’s His pleasure to give us the Kingdom!!!
Hosea 4:1-6 – Vs. 1. Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no Truth, nor Mercy, nor Knowledge (Law) of God in the land. 2. By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. 3. Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away. 4. Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest. 5. Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother. 6. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected Knowledge (the Laws), I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. This scripture is showing us that due to the lack of Knowledge (Laws) of the Most HIGH GOD, the children of Israel were being destroyed through wickedness in the land because they had rejected the Laws of their GOD. Their way of life (lawlessness) had displeased the HOLY Father and so it was time to put forth His judgment upon His people and the land. Also, in our time, His people are still being destroyed for the lack of His Laws/Righteousness which is why it’s extremely important to let them know that they Must come back to Him and follow His Ways, and believe on His Anointed Son (Yashai) to avoid Destruction & Hell!!!
Isaiah 33:6 – And Wisdom and Knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and Strength of Salvation: the fear of the LORD is His treasure. The fear (Knowledge) of the Most HIGH is what we should be seeking and Wisdom (the Spirit of Truth – The Fear of the Most HIGH) is needed at all times; She teaches us to Love (Respect) the HOLY Father by keeping His Laws!!!
Proverbs 19:2 – Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth. This verse confirms that it’s not good for any soul to be without the knowledge (Laws) of the Most HIGH; for without it we’re quick to commit sin!
Isaiah 5:11-13 – Vs. 11. Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! 12. And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the LORD, neither consider the operation of His hands. 13. Therefore My people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. A lawless lifestyle is profitable to no one; while there’s enjoyment in it, there is a downfall. The Most HIGH GOD had placed His people into captivity for disobedience and till this day we are still in captivity! It’s best to be wise and learn the ways of the Almighty GOD AHHAYAH (I AM) because He knows what is best for us in order to live in this kingdom and the next Kingdom to come; also there is enjoyment in the Righteousness of the ALMIGHTY, He’ll show what they are if we seek His Ways!!!
Isaiah 13:1-2 – Vs. 1. The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see. 2. Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles. The HOLY Father is calling upon His flock of men (the Elects) to correct the people to show them their transgression (Sins)!
Matthew 6:33 – But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His Righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Here, the Messiah (Ha-Mashayach) is commanding us to seek the Kingdom of GOD first, and all our needs will be taken care of!
Romans 10:1-4 – Vs. 1. Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2. For I bear them record that they have a zeal (passion) of God, but not according to Knowledge. 3. For they being ignorant of God's Righteousness (Laws), and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the Righteousness of God. 4. For Christ is the end of the Law for Righteousness to everyone that believeth. We can all relate to Apostle Paul in having the desire for our brothers and sisters to be Saved and that is the keeping of the Laws of the Most HIGH, and believing in Christ Savior as the scripture has said!!! Because both he and we have witnessed the zeal (passion/love/dedication) of GOD in them, however, they’re missing an extremely vital component and that is the TRUTH of the Great I AM (AHHAYAH). Having the Knowledge of the Most HIGH’s Righteousness (Laws/Truth) is the key in worshipping Him in Spirit and in Truth as well as having Faith in Christ Yashai (Savior) because He’s the completion of the Law!!!
Isaiah 51:7 - Hearken unto Me, ye that know Righteousness (What is the HOLY Father’s Righteousness?), the people in whose heart is My Law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings (abusive language). The HOLY Father is telling us to listen to Him, those who keep His Laws (Righteousness), and to not be afraid of what men or women say or do to us!!!
Matthew 5:11-12 – Vs. 11. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for My sake. 12. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Yashai is telling us that we are Blessed when we are persecuted for His Name sake, just as the Prophets were; so we ought to rejoice because we are in good company and that we will certainly be rewarded!
Matthew 22:8-14 – Vs. 8. Then saith He to His servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid (invite) to the marriage. 10. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12. And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14. For many are called, but few are chosen. In this scripture, Yashai gave a parable on the preparedness of the Kingdom of Heaven and what happens if you’re Unprepared. For many are called to the marriage (the Kingdom), but only a few will take the invite of Repentance and Keep the Laws and Believe in Yashai as the Holy Scripture has said to then come to the wedding that the Most HIGH had prepared and invited us to!
Matthew 28:18-20 – Vs. 18. And Yashai came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. 19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: 20. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Ha-Mashayach Yashai (The Anointed Savior) commissioned His disciples this Doctrine of Truth which is the Gospel of the Kingdom to share with the world (all nations) in His physical absence! We ought to do the same as His disciples in this day and age while we endure until He comes back. It’s imperative that we keep the Most HIGH GOD’s Commandments for it will be well with our soul!!!
Christ Yashai and His disciples taught the Laws of GOD which will be kept in the Kingdom of Heaven! They are the Ceremonial Laws, the Moral Laws, the Civil Laws, and the Dietary Law!
A Short Summary of Each Law!
The Ceremonial Law – Teaches us how to worship the Most HIGH GOD including the keeping of His Sabbaths/Holy Feast Days!
The Moral Law – Teaches us to conduct ourselves in our day-to-day life!
The Civil Law – Teaches us to resolve disputes with one another!
The Dietary Law – Teaches us what to feed our temples/bodies to sustain our health!
The Gospel of the Kingdom is the declaration (Good News) of the Righteousness (LAWS/TRUTH) of the Most HIGH AHHAYAH and the Truth of His Anointed Son (Ha-Mashayach Yashai) as the Scripture has stated; where the receiving of Everlasting Life is gained for the Kingdom of GOD!!!
The Kingdom of Heaven is possible for all; we just have to be obedient to what is required!!!
