He said, The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables... Luke 8:10 (NIV) The Kingdom of God is a spiritual nation on earth. It is the arm of the spiritual Kingdom of Heaven ruled by God.
This is part of my book series on the Kingdom of God. Each book unravels a pair of ...knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God.... This book reveals knowledge of the secrets about Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Why did God send them to earth?
Why did God, King of the Kingdom of Heaven send Jesus Christ to earth? Jesus Christ did many miracles, died, rose from the grave, and went back to Heaven. So, why did he come to earth?
He spoke about the mystery of the Kingdom of Heaven which he exposed only to his disciples. The clue to the first secret made known only to his disciples was:
...You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.
Matthew 16:16 (NIV)
Why did humanity need a Messiah (King) from Heaven to Earth? We need to compare humanity at creation and at that point in time. Below is the account of creation of mankind.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion... Genesis 1:26 (KJV)
Contrasting the account of creation to the status of humanity at that point clearly shows the plight of humanity. Instead of having dominion, the human was dominated, and instead of ruling the earth, the human was ruled by Satan and everything on earth. Clearly, humanity lost all knowledge of rulership and the power to rule the earth. During that era, the predominant government ideology was kingdom. A kingdom is a nation ruled by a King or Queen. Humanity lost all knowledge of how to be Kings and Queens of the earth.
Unfortunately, humans were the children of God, King of the Kingdom of Heaven. God created the earth for his children to rule as Kings and Queens just as he rules Heaven as King.
We are about to reveal the secret of Jesus Christ. When he was born shepherds in the field were visited by an angel from Heaven who told them that a King was born. He said he was the Messiah (King) and was killed because he said he was a King. There is no doubt that Jesus Christ came from Heaven to Earth as a King. Why? The secret is that Jesus Christ is the image of God and humans are also the image of God, King of the Kingdom of Heaven. But humanity lost knowledge of that image as Kings and Queens.
Jesus Christ came to teach humanity how to be the Kings and Queens of the earth again, thereby restoring the image of God on earth. If you do not understand Jesus Christ as King, you are missing the point about him.
His life showed us how to be the Kings and Queens of the Earth again. Don't be mesmerized by the miracles, that is what we were created to do on earth. He said we can command a mountain to move and it will obey us. Why?
Because a King has absolute power in his kingdom. This section will retrain us to assume the image of God, our Father who is King of the Kingdom of Heaven, and rule once again as Kings and Queens of the Earth.
Jesus Christ accomplished his task of restoring the image of God as King to humanity. But humanity still lacked something we had in creation, the likeness of God. That is the second secret that required the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ revealed this secret to us in his sermon on the mount. He said: Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matthew 5:48
Our Father in Heaven is a King and he is perfect. We are Kings and Queens of the Earth and are supposed to be perfect like our Father. Why? What is this likeness of God, and why do we need it? We need the knowledge of this second secret...
