So let me get this straight....Jesus is coming back earth to set up the Kingdom of God here, right?
According to the scriptures, the last time he was here, he was already offered all the kingdoms of the world and he didn't take the offer. So what changed his mind?
As a matter of fact, Jesus said his kingdom was NOT of this world. Again, what changed his mind?
And supposedly, this coming Kingdom of God is to be ruled with an iron rod. Has Jesus had a change of personality?
Jesus said that flesh and blood cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
If this is true, then does it not stand to reason that the "Paradise earth" aka "Kingdom of God on earth" is some kind of well planned political power grab?
The Kingdom of God will be in heaven and the benefits of the Kingdom will be felt on earth.
When on earth satan tempted Jesus by offering him the kingdoms on the earth but Jesus refused as his Kingdom would be in heaven.
You are right flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom therefor subjects of the kingdom will be on earth.
His death would result in him sitting at the right hand of God and he would be put in control of the heavenly kingdom the benefits of which would be felt on earth.
God is somewhere?
Truthseeker1969, can i ask you, before God created anything, where was he?
truthseeker1969: "The Kingdom of God will be in heaven and the benefits of the Kingdom will be felt on earth."
Do you ever get the idea that this New Order of Things will still be run by an "invisibile deity" while councils of men make the rules claiming "Divine Right by Appointment"?
Something along the lines of a world wide Watchtower Society?
A religio-political power structure under the cloak of "christianity"?
What if someday there was open communication with the BILLIONS of other inhabited worlds out there? And that's just in the Milky Way. There are TRILLIONS of galaxies similarly teeming with life. Might that help clear up some of these questions a little bit?
