The Davidic kingdom to be restored by Christ : it's character and extent
Isaiah 11 This chapter is a prophetic picture of the glory of the future kingdom, which will be set up when David's son returns in glory.
Luke 1: 31-32; Acts 15:15-16
Isaiah 11:9 -10 They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain,
For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD
As waters cover the sea.
"And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse,
Who shall stand as a banner to the people;
For the Gentiles shall seek Him,
And His resting place shall be glorious."
How Crist will set up the kingdom
Isaiah 11:11-12
It shall come to pass in that day
That the LORD shall set His hand again the second time
To recover the remnant of
His people who are left,
From Assyria and Egypt,
From Pathros and Cush,
From Elam and Shinar,
From Hamath and the islands of the sea. He will set up a banner for the nations,
And will assemble the outcasts of Israel,
And gather together the dispersed of Judah
From the four corners of the earth.
Habakkuk 2:14
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD As waters cover the sea.
Zechariah 12:8 "In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; the one who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the Angel of the LORD before them."
The moral characteristics of the kingdom are to be righteousness and peace. The meek, not the proud , will inherit the earth; longevity will be greatly increased; the knowledge of the LORD will be universal;
beast-ferocity will be removed;
absolute equity will be enforced; and open sin will be visited with instant judgement; whereas the enormous majority of earth's inhabitants will be saved Psalms 2:9; Isaiah 11:4,6-9; 26:9; 65:20; Zacharia 14:16-21
The NT Revelation 20:1-5 adds a detail of immence significance
Those are both of the Scripture references that came to my mind when considering Edna's question. You put it well in your posting.
Jesus is the Perfect One to accomplish all that was needed for our salvation. Perfect humanity to fulfill the Law, to shed His blood for our atonement, to die in our place; perfect divinity to bear all of our sins and absorb all of the wrath of God for our sinfulness, to defeat the devil and death, to raise himself up on the third day, and to receive back the glory He had before the incarnation in union with the Father and the Holy Spirit. I don't think we can every fully comprehend the amazing mystery of the incarnation of God in Jesus. But we can know that being human, He connects with us. And being God He connects us to the Godhead. So, we are very loved and privileged to have been drawn to Him by the Father, united to Him by the Spirit, and thoroughly redeemed to God by Him.
He is wonderful! If we have this limited knowledge and view of the wonders of astronomical features, just think hhow much more there is for us to be amaze about when we enter glory!
If you go back to verse 3:3, this text section is describes God manifesting Himself for people to observe. I think that the "horns" are rays of radiance, as the word horns is translated "rays" in the NIV version.
what he was going to build. Starting verse 13 who do men say that I am, then in verse 16 Peter as always was his up
and down bold nature said thou art the Christ the son of the living God. Then Jesus said blessed art thou because
flesh and blood has not shown you this, the same with us. Then verse 18 Thou art Peter which means a stone
or pebble but talking about Himself upon this rock [petra large immovable rock or boulder]I will build my church
ekklesia[that which is called out] and the gates of hell won't prevail against it. Showing that He was going to be
head of the body of believers and the Chief cornerstone.
God's omniscience means that He can never learn anything new. Nothing can surprise Him or take Him unaware. He is never blind-sided! You will never hear God say, "I didn't see that coming!" or "Who would have thought?" A firm belief in God's omniscience gives the Christ-follower extraordinary peace, security, and comfort in every area of life.
Amos 8:12
And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.
Job 2:2
And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
2 Chronicles 16:9
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
God has knowledge of everything occurring at any given time. We ask, well why did He allow this and that to happen?!
He gifted us free will, to make decisions that glorify Him and not us. Glorify Jesus. Welcome the Holy Spirit to help us become more like Jesus.
We have technology to tell us daily what is happening all over the earth: weather, wars, economy, disasters, Everything.
As His children we ought to ask the Lord our questions and then leave it with Him. By reading the Bible, cover to cover, almost all of our questions will be answered. If you ask Him a question, be prepared to sit in silence before Him and, WAIT UPON THE LORD. Open up dialog with Him. Be willing to accept the no's with the yes's.
I like the "Bible study tools" link
God has a book of Remembrance in which it is recorded what believers talk about. Our conversations which each other will please, or be a displeasure.
It reminds ME to take control of what comes out of my mouth. Faith or Faithlessness; condemnation or prayer that situations will improve, if I be patient and wait on God, etc.
If I speak negative, I hear it with spiritual ears; and I counter that with truth and words of faith.
Angels are writing in the Book. Wouldn't it be great to read a book someone wrote about us_ saying and doing things that bless and do not curse?
Sometimes I am my worst critic.

Our old man is in rank with satan which is our old adamic nature....1 st Peter 1 : 23 Being born again of an incorruptible seed which are the words of the new covenant, A much a greater covenant then John's water baptism...Jesus refers to Peter 1 time as Satan before he was converted....The man of the hour is the H.G. Our King, and kingdom thats is born
within us...He is the result of the CROSS the Blood of the lamb. But he has to be born in us via us hearing the words of our lord .Today if you will hear his voice etc...His words are the good seeds. It was when he breath on them they received the H.G...As his breath was his words which are his seeds producing a birth of Christ in us that Child of Promise Which is the multiplication of Christ in humanity the H.G....As the H.G. was not yet given freely till after the CROSS....Meaning after he was glorified the 1s time after Pentacost the H.G was born in their hearts that Child of Promise, But the seed were sown in the upper room when he said b/c i have spoken these WORDS ( HIS BREATH ) SORROWS HAVE FILLED YOUR HEARTS a spritual Pregnancy....But the Child didn't come till Pentacost some 50 days later....i.e there has to be gestation in the spritual realm for the H.G. to be born in us....I think that is y he is saying
That which is born of the spirit is spirit which is our new innerman the H.G...His breath was his word which is Spirit
Thats y he has to know us...Thats when that good seed is sown in us sinners...That was the result of the CROSS
SMITE THE Sheppard and the sheep will be scattered then i will turn my hand to the lil ONES....His Children that are gonna be born in us...The babes and the sucklings are his offspring.....Isaiah said he wd see his seed.
Thanks for your reply. What a wonderful sunny day here!
I'm going to continue to love you with this scripture! We may not agree on our interpretation of scripture, but it's ok, many of us here on this site continue to have our differences of opinion. Only God can be our judge! I have to respect you for the Fire you have in stating and sharing your interpretation of scripture.
Since you commented on Peter I will share this scripture with you for your consideration.
Regarding the Apostle Peter, Jesus held him in high esteem so much so that he used Peter to build his church!
Matthew 16:18-20
And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Peter is God's Man! We need to listen when Peter talks:
Acts 2:38
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."
Peter tells us what we must do - to receive the Holy Ghost/Spirit. Very Powerful! Do you believe that the Apostle Peter is God's Man?
Alex, feel free to comment on this scripture, or list any other scripture that you want to discuss, or some other scripture that validates your beliefs.
God Bless.
about that is believers in Antioch of syria after being born again would walk around telling people they had
Christ in them I.E. Christian Acts 11:26. Remember the words of our brother Jesus Christ Mark 16:17+18 it doesn't say
this over time was going to change it says those who believe also verse 18 in context means if you not knowingly
get bit or drink some thing not good, God will not cover something intentionally done stupid knowingly.
Thanks for sharing the wonderful scripture, directed at baptism. I agree with all! Amen.
Yes, Jesus is the only way to the Father. It's nice to hear of a church like yours that actually follows this bible scripture.
Does your church observe God's Ten Commandments?
John 14:15
"If ye love me, keep my commandments."
God Bless.
of Humanity and their Wild Personalities, But the lil Child that leads them is their new innerman That Child of PROMISE
The H.G....That spirit of truth that Jesus said was gonna lead everybody....I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh....This Child
is Emanuel the H.G. God with them and leading them to his holy mountain As Isaiah 11 : 9 is saying... Hebrews 12 : 8
you are come unto mt Zion, the city of the living God That heavenly Jerusalem.Which is the Kingdom of God....Unless
ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child which is the lil Child that is leading them that Child that results from his Seed
Isaiah 11 : 11 The lord will set his hand again a 2 nd time to recover his ppl etc...This woman in Rev. 12 : 5 is humanity
that is being led by the Child she has given birth to that Child of Promise the H.G. And verse 10 says now is come Salvation and the Kingdom of our God etc....Plz note the Kingdom does not come till the Woman gives birth to manchild
Which is the H.G. the Child of Promise .Which is the multiplication of Christ via his seed sown in humanity...Jesus knew this woman, Her pregnancy is the result of his seed the WORDS OF THE NEW COVENANT,...The seeds of the Sower. The contents of the book he wrote with his own blood.
Whosoever receiveth one such Child in my name receiveth me,..Which is the H.G. the Child of Promise...Remember
Jesus said the H.G will come in my Name..impling his seed the Living WORD...Planted in our hearts..initiating a birth.
which is multiplication of his seed etc
We believe that going to church is more than simply a social club or a means of filling up a Sunday. At our Church we emphasize a personal, life-giving experience with God. We teach the biblical message of salvation which is summed up in Acts 2:38 and supported throughout the scriptures. The same Spirit that believers experienced in the book of Acts is being poured out upon the church today. The Jesus Name Church is not dead, dry and boring, but rather it is alive and exciting
Acts 2-38 I'm sure you have read this scripture, for it is very well known
"Then Peter said unto them,Repent and be Baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the "Holy Ghost"
John 3-5 "Jesus answered,verily verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven"
1st Timothy 2-5"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,the Man Christ Jesus;"
Galatians 3-20..Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God as one
I am Apostolic, I believe in one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism, One God and Father of all,who is above all and through all. I believe in Baptism by immersion in water in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. I believe in the Baptism of the Holy Ghost.With the evidence of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives us the utterance. I believe Marriage is a holy union between one man and one woman and founded and defined by God alone.
There are many Churches that have the same belief as ours.."In Jesus Name Church" Apostolic Pentecostal..alot of people say we are "Holy Rollers" We Love God with our whole heart- John 15-18 "If the world hate you, Ye know that it hated me before it hated you"
John 15-19,If ye are of the world, the world would love its own: but becouse you are not of the world but I have chosen you out of the world, therefor the world hateth you.

"And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power."
If anyone can provide their beliefs as to the meaning I would so appreciate your thoughts.
Jesus is coming back soon this time as the triumphant King, the Lion
Jesus is also the Lion!
The Holy Word is prophetic and revealed to those who has His Spirit by giving Jesus the throne in your heart.
In the 1000 years reign as King, the lamb ( Jesus) and the Lion (Jesus) is together in Jesus the same.
The Wolf is the enemy, antichrist, who will deceive people to recognize him as the King of the World, not so.
Revelation 22:19
[19]And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book........
