In the previous post, we saw that God had to put Abraham\u2019s own works and efforts \u2018to sleep\u2019. It was in order for Jesus the Perfect one to appear as a Light or Burning Torch (in the case of Abraham).<\/p>\n
In our case, Jesus appeared in the likeness of sinful flesh to represent mankind in a New covenant of the Kingdom, with God \u2013 Rom. 8:3.<\/p>\n
Thus, Jesus appeared in this Abrahamic covenant as the Burning Torch, to pass through the pieces on behalf of Abraham, who represented mankind as a whole.<\/p>\n
So, this covenant was prophetic of Jesus appearing as mankind\u2019s Representative or Substitute to \u2018cut\u2019 the New Testament with God on our behalf. Hallelujah!<\/p>\n
That is why Jesus said that the New Testament (that disposes us to enjoy the Royalty, Rule and Realm of God) is in His Royal Blood; not in our blood, self, sacrifice or efforts – Lk. 22:20,<\/p>\n
\u201cLikewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in My Blood, which is shed for you\u201d.<\/p>\n
So, our Lord Jesus Christ, one more time, stood in for mankind before God to cut the New covenant with God, for us to inherit and practically taste the \u2018new\u2019 system of the Kingdom of God.<\/p>\n
Beloved, our New Testament was \u2018cut\u2019 between God and Jesus as our Replacement or Representative. Yes, we did nothing to receive the Royalty, Rule and Realm of God. Jesus did it all. Amen.<\/p>\n
My friend, our dearest Jesus was the Burning Torch or Kingdom-word of light that God spoke, (as in the beginning of Creation) against the darkness of Satanic presence all around \u2013 Gen. 1:2-3.<\/p>\n
So, the Kingdom-word was first introduced on earth by God, the King of Heaven, when He commanded against the darkness and chaos of Satan\u2019s presence, \u201clet there be light\u201d \u2013 Gen. 1:2-3.<\/p>\n
By this God was introducing the Burning Torch into the darkness of evil. So, these Words of God is Jesus Christ, the Carrier of God\u2019s Kingdom-light or awareness \u2013 Jn. 1:1, 4-9, 14a,<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… In Him was life and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.<\/p>\n
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us…\u201d.<\/p>\n
Yes, our Lord Jesus is the Word of Life from Heaven above, the Place of God\u2019s Throne or Kingdom.<\/p>\n
And He came on earth below, as Heaven\u2019s Ambassador to lighten us about God\u2019s Kingdom.<\/p>\n
This is why on earth Jesus kept sowing into our \u2018earthly soils\u2019 the Word of the Kingdom, or the Gospel of the Kingdom, otherwise called the King-dom-word \u2013 See Matt. 13:19; 24:14.<\/p>\n
God\u2019s Kingdom is one of lights or awareness, and Satan\u2019s Kingdom is one of darkness or ignorance. And the Kingdom-word is the Word that brings about this Kingdom of light.<\/p>\n
And so, our Lord Jesus is the Kingdom-word that God spoke from the beginning to introduce His Kingdom system or scheme or arrangement on earth, as in Heaven.<\/p>\n
Beloved, Kingdom-words are the Words of God that are viewed through the results of Jesus\u2019 Kingdom assignment, death, resurrection, ascension, sitting at the right Hand side of the Father, and the future rule of God on earth.<\/p>\n
In other words, Kingdom-words exalt Jesus\u2019 Person, Principles and Performance for mankind on earth.<\/p>\n
Kingdom-words are also words that are spoken and promoted by our Lord Jesus Christ in Heaven now, (where the Royalty, Rule and Realm of God is fully expressed), as He prays for us \u2013 1 Jn. 2:1; Heb. 7:25; 9:24.<\/p>\n
For example, both Jesus Christ and God see you and speak about you just as Jesus is in Heaven now \u2013 1 Jn. 4:17. So, they speak about you as God\u2019s righteousness, wisdom and redeemed.<\/p>\n
Yes, you are spoken of as already forgiven, justified, sanctified, victorious, perfected, healed, fully provided-for and blessed etc., if you are in Christ.<\/p>\n
Our Jesus did it all so that we can receive it by grace, as we believe His gracious Kingdom-word that: we can enjoy all the multitudinous benefits of Jesus\u2019 shed Blood.<\/p>\n
And these blessings include the Kingdom-type of peace, provisions, preservation, purity, power, pleasures, passion or love, possibilities, purpose, people etc.<\/p>\n
My friend, through the crucifixion or splitting of Jesus Christ on the Cross, a passage-way was created for us through His flesh, for us to get the Kingdom-position that He Himself is in \u2013 Heb. 10:19-20,<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the Blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh\u201d Hallelujah!<\/p>\n
Beloved, through the Blood of Jesus, we can be certain of the Kingdom-life today and as such, in the world to come.<\/p>\n
So, the Burning Torch or Jesus will both enlighten and heat you up with the Word of the Kingdom that He is. Say amen to this!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
