Fresh From God
Topic: what about the coming of Christ? (Eschatology)
1 Thessalonians 4:16 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
The second coming of Christ and other general events of the last days has been a thing of great concern to many who needed the full understanding of the list and chronology of Eschatological events.
There are some major phrases that are mostly misunderstood for the same occurence, they are:
● The coming kingdom of God.
● The coming of Christ to receive the saints, both living and dead. (Rapture)
● The coming of Christ to rule the world.
Each of these will be explained briefly.
The Kingdom of God - Jesus started preaching the coming kingdom, since he began his ministry.
Matthew 4:17 KJV
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
The kingdom of God, as stated, indicates the reign of the power of God on earth.
We see this in a couple of scriptures, such as the Lord's prayer.
Matthew 6:10 KJV
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
This simply means the kingdom power and Will of God should reign on earth as it is in heaven.
Again Jesus said
John 3:3,5 KJV
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. [5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Jesus explained the way to seeing God's kingdom as well as entering into it. The two are different, people experiencing the kingdom here on earth still need to enter into it. People can have a taste of the and still not enter into it.
Jesus also said
Luke 11:20 KJV
"But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you."
From this we know that the kingdom of God is in bringing the devil under total subjection. The kingdom of God has come upon us, because we cast our devils in the name of Jesus Christ. We experience the kingdom of God on earth when devil has no domain of power around us. We become a carrier of God's kingdom, our presence expels the devil.
That means the power of Jesus is reigning over the power of darkness. But this doesn't signify that Jesus Christ is no longer coming.
