ONE PURPOSE ONE OBJECTIVE ONE KINGDOM



Jesus came with one objective and that
was to establish the kingdom of God, of which He Himself is Lord and
Master. Jesus preached the Kingdom of God, and how to become part of
it. There is only one gospel that saves from hell, and converts
sinners into Children of God, and that is the Gospel of Jesus, His
words as they were also recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
After Jesus was crucified and
resurrected, before He ascended to heaven, He gave His disciples this
commission: “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on
earth. 19“Go
therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20teaching
them to observe all that I commanded you;” Matthew 28:18-20.
The words of Jesus are plain and
simple. His disciples were common men, fishermen, people of low
status and education. Jesus taught them, the simple words that we
read in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. He did not teach them the law
of Moses, the Torah or Old Testament teachings. He said:” The Law
and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the
gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is
forcing his way into it.” Luke 16:16. Jesus did not preach the 10
commandments. The words of Jesus, the words that He preached, are the
words of eternal life, for those who OBEY Him.
Jesus commanded His disciples to make
disciple, baptize them in water and TEACH THEM TO OBSERVE, DO, CARRY
OUT, LIVE BY His words, what He commanded them. He did not command
them to build churches, with hierarchy structures, church officials
and teach various man made doctrines. He did not command them to add
their own “interpretations” to His words.
Many gospels and doctrines are being
preached in the world, and they claim to lead to eternal life but
they are lies, deception. Most Christian churches are not preaching
the truth, they preach lies, that will cause multitudes to end up in
hell, because they do not preach Jesus Christ and obedience to His
words.
Jesus never changed. The kingdom of God
never changed. The words of Jesus never changed. The only way to have
eternal life is to OBEY Jesus Christ. If you BELIEVE in Jesus, then
you must OBEY His words. Just believing in Jesus and reading or
quoting His words, without taking action, will have no effect.
You have to RECEIVE Jesus. “12But
as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children
of God, even to those who believe in His name, 13who
were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will
of man, but of God.” John 1:12,13.
To receive Jesus
means to absolutely embrace Him and to obey His words. Then Jesus
Himself is manifested dynamically. Jesus said:“Go into all the
world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16“He
who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has
disbelieved shall be condemned. 17“These
signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will
cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 18they
will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it
will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will
recover.” Mark 16:15-18. These signs and manifestations accompany
those who have believed and do obey the commandments of Jesus. That
is the demonstration of the children of God.
Have we become children of God? Have we
RECEIVED Jesus and do we live in OBEDIENCE to Him? Do our lives
demonstrate that we are children of God that belong to the kingdom of
God?
May Jesus bless you.
