JESUS' MAIN TEACHING – 'THE KINGDOM'

"And, the LORD shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto His Heavenly kingdom:" 2 Timothy 4:18.

Our Lord and Savior, Jesus, the Son of God, of course IS Biblical  teaching. Have you trusted the One that came down to earth to save mankind from sin? What took place was that He established God's kingdom on earth; according to Matthew 6:10, "The kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven." In order to accomplish and establish His Father's kingdom, Jesus was to die for sin. He had to remove sin's penalty before forgiveness would come to lost sinners. What we have to understand here is that the removal of sin allowed man to approach the Father through His Son, Jesus. "...your Father knows what things you have need of BEFORE you ask Him," Matthew 6:8. Why? Because, all was completed in Jesus the Son. Go to Jesus and God will hear you. No other name given can work out salvation for us. See Acts 4:12.

Romans 6:23 tells us: "...the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST our LORD." And, since we were saved, Paul explains that the an eternal change has occurred. "...for you are not under the Law, but under grace," Romans 6:14. Paul was a dedicated man. Once unsaved, he now, understands God's plan. And, SO SHOULD EVERYONE. Thus, Paul tells  us: "...God commends His love toward us...while we were sinners (everyone fell when Adam fell), yet, CHRIST DIED FOR US" – YOU, ME, PAUL AND THE JEWS – all. Our LORD died for every man. TRUST HIM  TODAY, MY FRIEND.
