"There are actually only two kingdoms in the world; Good - God or Evil - Satan!" a True-ism
Most of the world systems work under a "Power Over" principle, which holds people in bondage, oppression, injustice, and violence or domination!
The culture is based on making oneself feel better through being number one or belonging to some group that tends to want everyone to think they are in control... It is this control and domination that drives most everything in this world of the here and now... The desire to want more and put oneself above others through privilege or position... It all comes down to selfishness and greed!!
The other kingdom is seldom spoken of is one of beauty, perfection, and love! Though it exist, most people tend to shun away from it in their pursuit of fame and fortune... So where and what is it you may ask??
It has and does exist all around us, it is the Kingdom of Heaven! We have a perfect example in the life and teachings of Jesus the Christ!
He exposed the ugly injustices of all the world's kingdoms because:
1) He did not buy into the limited options offered by the world systems.
2) He offered a kingdom which is radically distinct, in that it does not try to rule from above or "Power Over" domination.
3) He exposes then unmask the demonic forces that fuel these world systems.
4) He showed that this kingdom does not fight "against flesh and blood" but "against rulers, against authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness"
5) He did not allow the politics or the society define his message or ministry.
6) He positioned himself as a revolutionary prophetic comment on the pages of history, which ultimately has had a world changing effect on all who embrace it down to this day!
He introduced the Kingdom of Heaven which comes as a "Power Under" where first you change the heart and mind of people so they want to live the gospel plan in their everyday lives... It is free choice and the desire to develop a core belief that causes a person to want to live holy! This is what God desired for us all; until pride and greed got in the way!
Remember: It is not about how much you make, or what kind of possessions you have, or who you know, or which political party you belong to, or what degrees you hold, or your race, or which church you attend, or what languages you speak, or your age, or your sex, or thousands of other worldly things you may have or do!
As Kingdom of Heaven citizens we must not wait for the issues of this life to change through the governments and actions of mankind... The Kingdom of Heaven is infinite and will exist for eternity; so why worry about the temporary things of this present day world?
We will discuss this in more detail in future posts...
