305 | unrighteous shall not inhert the kingdom | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92450 | ||
No, these are different. The kingdom of God is the spiritual rhelm we were translated into when we were born again. Colossians 1. Matthew 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Mark 10:14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Luke 11:20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. I fully realize that the kingdom of God is the government of God. Matthew mentions both but I believe in most instances they are interchangable terms. I could be wrong but you need to make the study. |

They are the same. Matthew alone calls it the kingdom of Heaven.[I think] | ||||||
307 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92445 | ||
"Now I do believe that God is very capable of sending missionaries to peoples who desire to know in their heart, but the fact is God knows the hearts of all men. Many do not want to know. No mand comes to the Father but through Jesus' blood." It's not a matter of people coming to Christ for salvation. This is matter of His blood being shed for ALL mankind, even those who never heard His name and what He did for them either before HE came or after He came. Why don't consider the many who can't/couldn't be reached in times when transportation wasn't available plus all those before Jesus died on the cross who lived life as best they could by a righteous of their own that God says He will honor.. Are you saying they are all damned? Those that saw or recognized God in nature and the birth of their babies and anything else you might think they may have witnessed in life to convince them of a God they LONGED to enjoy or feared that they did righteous deeds. C'mon. Are you saying they are in hell? For one thing Jesus said he had sheep of another flock you don't know of. I don't take this to mean the Mormons either. John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. As I said to someone else, let the Bible say what it says, then go from there. |

310 | unrighteous shall not inhert the kingdom | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92424 | ||
Can't we begin to see, in light of what Paul was saying in his letters, that this doesn't apply to just the unconverted but more to the converted who don't live the life as to becoming a son? Can we begin to see that we can fall away and become an outcast; to enter presumptiously into the wedding feast without a wedding garment? | ||||||
311 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92423 | ||
You might try this: The infilling, the new birth experience, is the very life of Christ that comes INTO you if you haved believed on His word preached to you, see Him as Savior and desire Him as Lord. He [Jesus Christ] then enters you that He MAY become the baptiser with the Holy Spirit. Compare Jn20.22 with Acts 2 |

"Ken, I've been thinking about this one all night long, I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me the REAL ISSUE of why Jesus came to earth...other than just get people saved." Thanks for this question, Curtman. If we can grasp what some of our older scholars of the word have said I believe the church can be truly renewed/ I like what Oswald Chambers says here: November 12th. My Utmost for His Highest THE TRANSFIGURED LIFE "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17 What idea have you of the salvation of your soul? The experience of salvation means that in your actual life things are really altered, you no longer look at things as you used to; your desires are new, old things have lost their power. One of the touchstones of experience is - Has God altered the thing that matters? If you still hanker after the old things, it is absurd to talk about being born from above, you are juggling with yourself. If you are born again, the Spirit of God makes the alteration manifest in your actual life and reasoning, and when the crisis comes you are the most amazed person on earth at the wonderful difference there is in you. There is no possibility of imagining that you did it. It is this complete and amazing alteration that is the evidence that you are a saved soul. What difference has my salvation and sanctification made? For instance, can I stand in the light of 1 Corinthians 13, or do I have to shuffle? The salvation that is worked out in me by the Holy Ghost emancipates me entirely, and as long as I walk in the light as God is in the light, He sees nothing to censure because His life is working out in every particular, not to my consciousness, but deeper than my consciousness. ------------------------------------------ There certainly is a "Plumline" we are placed against when we seek to follow and experience Christ in our lives. Certain of these "feelings" given us to convict us SHOULD lead us to the cross the we might see our error, ask for forgiveness, and then get on with becoming a son God desires to bring into His Glory. This is why Jesus, the man, had to prove Himself and what the scripture means when it says: Hebrews 5:8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. Ephes. 4:20-22 But ye have not so learned Christ; [21] If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: [22] That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; Philip. 4:9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you. These ARE the works we must be about. I hope I've been a help |

313 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92417 | ||
"These had 'received the Word' and therefore were born again. Received the Word means that they had taken it to heart or taken it within. The infilling came later to them. To be born again is to be regenerated by the Holy Spirit, but to be 'filled' is to be empowered supernaturally for service." No. Infilling and the coming upon are two seperate issues and manifestations of the same Spirit. You might try this: The infilling, the new birth experience, is the very life of Christ that comes INTO you if you haved believed on His worded preached to you, see Him as Savior and desire Him as Lord. He [Jesus Christ] then enters you that He MAY become the baptiser with the Holy Spirit. Luke 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he SHALL baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire. SHALL? and not, WILL? Sometimes this happens all at one time. I've seen it that way. Most of the time it doesn't but requires one to tarry. But that's God's business and His timing in the matter. |

314 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | Ken hepting | 92415 | ||
"I disagree...before Christ there were no righteous people." Then you must reconcile this passage satisfactorily:Rev. 20:12 NASB 'And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, ACCORDING TO THEIR DEEDS.' These are the ones, those who did righteous deeds that the blood Christ will redeem. This will testify to the acripture that man is without excuse and God rewards those who see Him in the Earth through the various means He has provided and who, as a consequence of seeing, live their lives accordingly. The Grace of God can't be so narrow as to not include them because they never heard the name of Jesus. No! Their names will be in the book of life. Furthermore this is the main reason for evangelism, i.e., to preach the gospel of the good news of the kingdom of God to "bring many sons into glory" and NOT to get people saved who already sense there is a God but to explain Him [God] that they might come into the more perfect way of believing in Him. Buy the book "Bruchco". The young man Bruce Olsen who went to SA and to the Mantalone indian tribe. It will explain a lot of what I'm referring to. Your references having to with sending a preacher has to do more with the preaching of the kingdom of God they hope for because they already see God [in nature] and need to have closure in the matter of how to attain entrance into eternal life with Him. Re-read all that you just posted to me in the light of Rev 20.12. Don't let it mean it was for those who died with the promise of Messiah. They had preachers and plenty of them. Many had God Himself. |

"For starters had God wanted to use another word for the nominative, feminine, singular, in verse four, for the noun AGAPE, I am sure it would have been no problem for Him to do so; but He didn’t!" But I did and gave my reasons. Sorry that you don't see it as a/my way of explaining the kingdom of God and the intimacy of how God is connected with it.. If you can point to something in that reasoning that does injury to scripture, please do...I'm open to adjustment. ------------------------------------ What I was trying to point out to you, in a casual fashion, is that you have verbally insulted and belittled a brother on the forum with your snide answer to a question and have upset some on the forum. I've been upset also and apparently I missed what you intended to point out to me in a casual way. How about giving me two outta three? Yours in love also, KNH |

318 | Prophet - is it learned or a gift? | Acts | Ken hepting | 92370 | ||
"Compare the lists (Eph 4:11...1 Cor 12) is both places ... for example, is a prophet something that is learned or is it a gift?" Well, in the OT they had a school for prophets. I guess one went to Prophet College or something. Obviously it had to do with discerning the times and making predictions based on the history of God doing the things He did and then drawing concusions from those experiences. One who prophecies isn't necessarilly a prophet by "trade" in the Bible. God spoke through Balaams donkey, remember. So if one is yielded to the Holy Spirit at the appointed time he/she will be used by God to bring forth a prophecy. I can't be more specific than that in a hypothetical way here. I just know it happens. It has happened to me. |

Great question. For the record, I've always had a problem with 13 -1 Corth. until I began to view it as the habitation of God Himself. Ergo, the kingdom of Himself with Jesus Christ being the King/Ruler. Re-read the chapter and substitute out the word 'love' with the word 'God'....That's His name anyway so you really aren't changing any words around to satisfy some bent of private interpretation. For that matter you could insert the phrase 'kingdom of God' and still be correct. Lets try it on part of it: 1 Cor. 13:1 [NASB] If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love [God], I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love [abide in the kingdom of God], I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. Lets extend it: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have "the mind of God", I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. One more time: If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have "the FAITH of Christ", I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. Now when you read the scriptures elseware in the Bible Like James 2:17: "Even so faith, [the faith of Christ I live by], if it hath not works, is dead, being alone." [---] my emphasis. We can see that we must "abide in Christ" in the kingdom [which is Himself] to do those kinds of works since HIS faith is the faith that pleases God.. Why? Because it is the mind of God...equal to Himself...perfection! The center of Christianity. When I actually saw it in a Spiritual Geograpghical way then I began to see my condition with it problems that couldn't be solved until I moved over there...Abiding. |
