"The Kingdom of Heaven(GOD)is at hand"!

"What is Truth"?

"Pilate" asked that question of The Messiah because
The Messiah testified, "You say that I am a king. To this
end was I born, and for this cause I came into the world,
that I should bear witness to The Truth. Everyone that
is of The Truth hears My voice"! (John 18:38)

The Messiah previously had testified, "I have given unto
them the words which YOU gave Me; and they have
received them, and have known surely that I came out
from YOU, and they have believed that YOU sent me."
(John 17:8) "Don't you Believe that I am in The Father,
and The Father in Me? The words that I speak unto you
I speak not of myself: but The Father that dwells in Me,
HE does the works." (John 14:10)

Later The Messiah testified to His disciples, "As GOD
sent Me, so send I you"! (John 20:21)

The Messiah, "the same today, yesterday and forever"
and He "bore witness unto The Truth" as He revealed
The Way to The Truth of The Life.......

Truth IS WHAT IS and ALWAYS WILL BE.......

And The GOOD News The Messiah preached?

"The Kingdom of Heaven(GOD) is at hand"!

When The Messiah was raised from among the dead
and ascended into Heaven He was given His rightful
place at the right hand of Our Father and GOD, and
"all power was given Him(by His GOD and Father) in
Heaven and in earth?" (Mat 28:18)

"The Kingdom of HIS Dear Son" had Come.......

Thanks Be To "Our Father"!

And The Faithful "were translated into The Kingdom"!

"Giving thanks unto The Father, WHO has made us
able to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints
in Light: WHO has delivered us from the power of
darkness, and has translated us into The Kingdom
of HIS Beloved Son:" (Col 1:12-13)

And Paul testified of the time when The Messiah
would deliver up The Kingdom unto Our GOD and
Father and be submitted unto HIM once again.

"THEN THE END COMES, when The Messiah shall
have delivered up The Kingdom to GOD, even
The Father; when The Messiah shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power. For The Messiah
must reign(after He was resurrected), till He has put
all enemies under His feet. The last enemy that shall
be destroyed is death. For GOD has put all things
under The Messiah 's feet. But when GOD said, all
things are put under The Messiah, it is manifest that
HE(GOD) is excepted, WHO did put all things under
The Messiah. And when all things shall be subdued
unto The Messiah, then shall The Son also Himself
be subject unto GOD, HE WHO put all things under
Him, so that GOD may be ALL and in all."
(1 Cor 15:22-28)

Question is, "THE END" of what?

Paul testified, "In that GOD said, A New Covenant,
HE has made the first covenant old. Now that which
is decaying and waxing old is ready to vanish away."
(Heb 8:13)

And believers were, and are exhorted to "set their
affections on things above(Heavenly), not things of
the earth", they are exhorted to not be of those
"whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their
shame because they mind earthly things".......
(Col 3:2, Phlp 3:19)

Why such exhortations?

The Faithful were "strangers and pilgrims on the
earth."(Heb 11:13)

"The believers citizenship(Life) is in Heaven"!
(Phlp 3:20)

"Here they have no continuing city, but they seek
one to come."(Heb 13:14)

"They desire a better country, an Heavenly city."
(Heb11:16)

Believers had "experienced The Messiah and The
Power that raised Him from among the dead".......
They had been "translated into the Kingdom of
The Risen Messiah". (Col 1:13)

"The Kingdom of Heaven(GOD) Is At Hand"!

The END of the Old earthly covenant Is At Hand,
("that which is decaying and waxing old will soon
vanish away") (Heb 8:13)

And the physical, natural kingdom of yerusalem
did vanish away indeed and Truth!

The New, Heavenly, Spiritual Covenant IS!

"And as some spoke of the temple, how it was
adorned with goodly stones and gifts, The Messiah
said, As for these things which you behold, the
days will come, in which there shall not be left one
stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
And they asked Him, saying, Master, but when shall
these things be? and what sign will there be when
these things shall come to pass? And He said,
Take heed that YOU are not deceived: for many shall
come in My name, saying, I am messiah; and the
time draws near: do not go after them. But when YOU
shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified:
for these things must first come to pass; but the end
is not by and by. Then said He unto them, Nation
shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers
places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful
sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
But before all these, they shall lay their hands on
YOU, and persecute YOU, delivering YOU up to the
synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before
kings and rulers for my name 's sake. And they shall
turn to YOU for a testimony. Settle it therefore in
YOUR hearts, not to meditate before what YOU will
answer: for I will give YOU a mouth and wisdom,
which all YOUR adversaries shall not be able to
gainsay nor resist. And YOU shall be betrayed both
by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolk 's , and friends;
and some of YOU shall they cause to be put to
death. And YOU shall be hated of all men for My
name 's sake. But there SHALL NOT A HAIR OF
YOUR HEAD PERISH. In YOUR patience possess
your souls. And when YOU SHALL SEE Yerusalem
compassed with armies, then know that the
desolation thereof is at hand. Then let them which
are in Yudaea flee to the mountains; and let them
which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not
them that are in the countries enter there.For these
be the days of vengeance, that all things which are
written may be fulfilled. But woe unto them that are
with child, and to them that give suck, in those days!
for there shall be great distress in the land, and
wrath upon THIS PEOPLE. And they shall fall by the
edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into
all nations: and Yerusalem shall be trodden down of
the heathen, until the times of the heathens are
fulfilled. And there shall be signs in the sun, and in
the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress
of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves
roaring; Men 's hearts failing them for fear, and for
looking after those things which are coming on the
earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And
then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud
with power and great glory. And when these things
begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your
heads; for your redemption draws nigh. And He spoke
a parable to them; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
When they now shoot forth, you see and know of your
own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So
likewise YOU, when YOU see these things come to
pass, YOU know that The Kingdom of GOD(Heaven)
is nigh at hand. Truly I say unto you:

THIS GENERATION SHALL NOT PASS AWAY,
TILL ALL BE FULFILLED."(Luke 21:5-33)

And The Messiah testified, "Truly I say unto YOU,
that this GENERATION shall not pass, till ALL
these things be done."(Mark 13:30)

"Truly I say unto YOU, This GENERATION shall not
pass, till ALL these things be fulfilled."(Matt 24:34)

(the word "YOU" and "GENERATION"in the above
testimonies refers to those The Messiah was speaking
to at that time.......period.......)

Simply, with the destruction of the earthly, natural
Yerusalem that "which waxed Old" did "vanish away"
indeed and Truth....... The Kingdom was no longer of
the earth, earthly, The Kingdom was then, and yet is,
fully of The Spirit, Heavenly.

The END of the Old, earthly kingdom WAS!

"The Kingdom" DID "Come" indeed and Truth!

Thanks Be To "Our Father"!

Paul testified, "WE WHICH ARE ALIVE and remain
SHALL BE CAUGHT UP together with them in the
clouds to meet The Messiah in the air: and so shall
WE ever be with The Messiah."(1Thes 4:17:18)

And Paul testified, "I was delivered out of the mouth
of the lion. And GOD WILL DELIVER ME FROM
EVERY EVIL WORK, AND WILL PRESERVE ME
UNTO HIS Heavenly Kingdom: to WHOM be Glory
for ever and ever....... Amen(it will be so)."
(2 Tim 4:17-18)

I believe that Paul was alive when taken up "in the
clouds to meet The Messiah in the air" when the
physical, earthly yerusalem was destroyed and
The Messiah came in the clouds"....... And that at
that time of the "END" of the old age, The Messiah
delivered up The Kingdom unto "Our Father" and
subjected Himself unto HIM once again!

The Messiah had testified, "Behold, I COME
QUICKLY: hold that fast which YOU have, that no
man take YOUR crown." (Rev 3:11)

"Behold, I COME QUICKLY: blessed is he that
keeps the sayings of the prophecy of this book."
(Rev 22:7)

"Behold, I COME QUICKLY, and My reward is
with Me, to give every man according as his work
shall be." (Rev 22:12)

And the apostle John testified, "He Who testifies
concerning these things said to me, "Surely I
COME QUICKLY". Amen(let it be). Even so,
come, Yahshua Messiah!" (Rev 22:20)

And so it is today that The Faithful desire to be
taken Home, for their "place has been prepared
for them"....... Home! Home at last!

The Faithful await their final transformation,
"caterpillar to butterfly" indeed and Truth.......

peace, in spite of the dis-eases(lies) that are of
this wicked world, for "the WHOLE world is under
the control of the evil one" indeed and Truth.......
francisco

(the worldly nation they call "israel" today is naught
but the product of mankind 's "imag"ination and sadly
mankind 's "imag"ination is destroying and perverting
Creation(earth, air, water, creatures, Truth, Love,
Peace, Order, Hope, .etc.) ;-( peace@thehopeofheaven.org
