Thine Is the Kingdom

This Bible study is all about God's mysteries and provocative messages to His people, through the events that have taken place in history and have brought mankind to this present time. Our quest should be to find our place in His Kingdom. Jesus told us that the Kingdom of God is among us. Wherever the Kingdom is, we know that is where God reigns upon His throne. This study of His Kingdom is divided into three phases: past, present, and future. Upon beginning my quest to know more, there were many times when I felt like I was swimming in molasses or trying to walk in quicksand as I studied and got into the Word of God deeper and deeper, but still not getting to the shore of the truth. It seems though that after all, when the pressure was on, and I was being squeezed between a rock and a hard place, that was when the oil poured forth! Then I realized that the rock was Jesus; the hard place was the world, the flesh, and the devil; and the oil was the Holy Spirit's manifestation within me, teaching me what needed to be learned to write this book. My prayer is that this study will guide others through the Word of God, helping them to put together the mysterious pieces of his puzzle. His Word is the blueprint for mankind! It has been so overlooked, so silent, so hidden from our eyes! But it is there for those of us who are willing to open our minds, hearts, and spirits. We well-meaning Christians all over the world are spending most of our time being absolutely ineffective in the battle against Satan. Why? Because we are lukewarm; we are apathetic. Apathy threatens to permeate every crevice of our being not filled with faith! I believe that the best way to keep fire in our faith is constant revelations and enlightenment from the study of God's Word and then (this is really the key) putting what we have learned into practice! Let us begin today, and may God richly bless us all.
