Before discussing the things
which must be hereafter, I felt it necessary to share a teaching on the
Gospel of the Kingdom, as outlined by God in His word.
The Gospel of the Kingdom Pt. 2
Life
in the kingdom of God
Life in the kingdom of God will be as it was in the
beginning of creation, when man and animals lived as one in the Garden
of Eden. (Genesis 2:19)
The
Animal Kingdom
Isaiah 11:6-9 (NIV)
6) The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will
lead them.
7) The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the
ox.
8) The infant will play near the hole
of the cobra, and the young child put his hand into the viper's nest.
9a) They will neither harm nor destroy
on all My holy mountain…
Remember that in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, the
statue was destroyed by a stone that was cut out without hands and this
stone became a great mountain that filled the whole earth. This mountain
represents the everlasting kingdom of God – The New Jerusalem - that
will rule the entire world.
The
Knowledge of God
In the kingdom of God, the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of God.
Isaiah 11:9b (NIV)
For the earth will be full of the knowledge of God as the waters cover
the sea.
No
More Sickness
In the Kingdom of God there will be no more
sickness.
Isaiah 33:24 (NIV)
…no one living in Zion – the New Jerusalem - will say, “I am
ill”
Isaiah 35:5-6 (NIV)
Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf
unstopped. Then will the lame leap like a deer and the mute tongue
shout for joy.
