The Kingdom of HeavenPart 1
The redemption of the body
1 Corinthians 15:51 ¶Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall
not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in
the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall
sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we
shall be changed.
The struggles of life
• Sickness
• Finances
• Family
• Romans 8:22 For we know that the whole
creation groaneth and travaileth in pain
together until now.
Gods Original Plan
Genesis 1:27 So God created
man in his own image, in the
image of God created he him;
male and female created he
them.
Genesis 2:7 And the LORD
God formed man of the dust of
the ground, and breathed into
his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living soul.
Genesis 1:28 And God
blessed them, and God
said unto them, Be fruitful,
and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and
subdue it: and have
dominion over the fish of
the sea, and over the fowl
of the air, and over every
living thing that moveth
upon the earth.
Before the “fall”
• Genesis 2:15 (KJV) And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
• 15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. NIV
Adam “the son of God “
• Luke 3:38 Which was the son
of Enos, which was the son
of Seth, which was the son of
Adam, which was the son of
God.
The Man when first Created had
No expiration date !
• Sons of God
• Immortal
• Glorious
• A Body
• A Soul
• A Spirit
• 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify
you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and
body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ
Where was the first place that man met God ?
• Genesis 3:8 And they heard the voice of the
LORD God walking in the garden in the cool
of the day: and Adam and his wife hid
themselves from the presence of the LORD
God amongst the trees of the garden.
Death of the Spirit
Genesis 3:3 But of the
fruit of the tree which is in
the midst of the garden,
God hath said, Ye shall
not eat of it, neither shall
ye touch it, lest ye die.
Body & Soul
• Science discovered in the last century that Life has a language, DNA.
• Written with four chemical molecules to form a code or Language.
•
• C - for Cytosine
• G - for Guanine
• T – for Thymine
• A – for Adenine
• When strung in chains or groupings of three (codons) they code for all the proteins that govern the operation of cells. And also for the development and creation of the cell themselves.
“….in thy book all my members were written..”
Psalms 139:16 The Language of life: The Cell
• Psalms 139:16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
Changing the Language
• Genesis 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit
shall not always strive with man, for that he
also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred
and twenty years.
• “The whole earth was of one language and one speech” Now why are there two words that mean the same thing ?. Or do they ?, lets look at the Hebrew.
• Speech; Hebrew : Dabar; meaning; speech, utterance, saying
• Language ; Hebrew “saphah meaning ; language , speech , Binding
• The fact that the bible uses two different words, indicates something deeper than just spoken language. The translation could have been equally well written this way
• “The whole earth was of one Binding (in other words type , ethnicity: my words) and one speech.
The Frustration of Creation
God not only changed the spoken language but he changed the DNA Language.
A new expiration date !
• Romans 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity(decay); not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
Psalms 8:5 For thou hast made him a little
lower than the angels, and hast crowned
him with glory and honour.
• The psalm referred to the first “Adam”
• But because of the “confounding of the language”,
At this present time, it now only applies to Jesus
Christ …The second Adam / son of God.
• The truth is …we, when born (sons of men) and are
no longer just a “little lower” anymore…..
Review; The Fall of Mankind !“Which was the
son of Adam,
Which was the son
Of GodLost Spirit Covering
Became Subject to Death
Lived hundreds of years
Man before the
Flood
Lost Long Life
Body subject to
Early Death
Today
Subject to diseases,
Deterioration, wear of
Organs, eyesight,
teeth, hearing
muscles
Genesis 6:3 And the
LORD said, My
spirit shall not
always strive with
man, for that he
also is flesh: yet his
days shall be an
hundred and twenty
years.
Progressively lower still !
• First we became subject to death; and lost our
spirit covering (image of God)
• “In the day thou eatest of thou shalt surely die “
• Then we became subject to the bondage of
decay and shortening of even the Fleshly life
• “yet his days shall be 120 years”
Not created spirits
•Hebrews 1:14 Are they
not all ministering spirits,
sent forth to minister for
them who shall be heirs of
salvation?
•Hebrews 1:7 And of the
angels he saith, Who
maketh his angels spirits,
and his ministers a flame
of fire.
The Psalmist speaks twice !
• Psalms 8:5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
• 6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
The first Son !
• Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion (glory and Honor) over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth
• Original “Made/Created “MANKIND; ADAM !
• Originally made only “a little lower than the angels”
• But now………
The superiority of the Sonship !
• Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
• 6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Paul makes it plain
• Hebrews 2:7 Thou
madest him a little
lower than the angels;
thou crownedst him
with glory and
honour, and didst set
him over the works of
thy hands:
Why made Lower ?
• Hebrews 2:8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
• 9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
The kingdom of heaven
and suffering
• Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is
not meat and drink; but righteousness, and
peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
What should we expect ?
• Is it to get rich ?
• Is it to have a life of pleasure ?
• Is it to never be sick
• Is it to never have problems ?
All things were created for his pleasure !
• Revelation 4:11 Thou art
worthy, O Lord, to receive
glory and honour and
power: for thou hast
created all things, and for
thy pleasure they are and
were created.
Son of God
• Man as originally created, is exactly the way
God intended. He could have created us as
only a spirit being. But we were created , body
soul and spirit !.
• 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of
God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall
be: but we know that, when he shall appear,
we shall be like him; for we shall see him as
he is.
Heirs and Joint Heirs
• John 17:6 I have manifested thy name unto the
men which thou gavest me out of the world:
thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and
they have kept thy word.
• Matthew 16:16 And Simon Peter answered
and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the
living God.
Where he is, Is where we will be !
• John 12:26 If any man serve me, let him
follow me; and where I am, there shall also
my servant be: if any man serve me, him will
my Father honour.
• John 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for
you, I will come again, and receive you unto
myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
The Garden
• Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it,
and on either side of the river, was there the
tree of life, which bare twelve manner of
fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and
the leaves of the tree were for the healing of
the nations.
• Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his
commandments, that they may have right to
the tree of life, and may enter in through the
gates into the city.
A body
• Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into
the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou
wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared
me:
• 1 Corinthians 15:35 But some man will say,
How are the dead raised up? and with what
body do they come?
Redemption
• Psalms 49:15 ¶But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
• Galatians 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
• Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
• 1 Corinthians 15: 42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
• 43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
• 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
• 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
The full explanation
• Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
• 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
• 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
• 21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
• 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
Romans 8:23 And not only
they, but ourselves also,
which have the firstfruits
of the Spirit, even we
ourselves groan within
ourselves, waiting for the
adoption, to wit, the
redemption of our body.
Created Not In Vain !
• Isaiah 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that
created the heavens; God himself that formed
the earth and made it; he hath established it,
he created it not in vain, he formed it to be
inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none
else.
The last enemy !
The Redemption of the Sons
• 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
A new heaven, and a new earth
• Rev 21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
• Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
• Rev 21: 1And
I saw a new
heaven and a
new earth: for
the first
heaven and
the first earth
were passed
away; and
there was no
more sea.
