Gospel of the Kingdom

I've been chewing on Enoch and the new Jerusalem. What grabbed me was the word "river"

And he shewed me a pure RIVER of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. Rev 22:1

One RIVER flowed out from the throne of Father and yet Jesus the Christ said--->He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow RIVERS (plural) of living water. John 7:38

Before pressing on, Jesus the Christ said that during the "Feast of Tabernacles."

So believing on Him one shall have riverS flowing of of their belly (heart). And in the New Jerusalem John only sees ONE RIVER ....hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yes I sat and said Father hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I felt Father reminded me of 3. Noah had 3 sons, Job had 3 daughters, Samuel called 3 times, tabernacle of Moses had 3 compartments, Ark of Covenant contained 3 objects, Christ Jesus rose on the 3rd day, Apostle Paul experienced 3 shipwrecks and on and on are there many 3 events listed in the bible.

So as I sat thinking 'Father 3?' I was reminded of Him teaching me early on the 3 compartments of Moses tabernacle. I saw them in a new light and today feel Father is taking us Deeper into Truth.

Now the tabernacle of Moses consisted of 'the outer court' where the sacrifice altar and laver was. 'the holy place' which had the lampstand, table of showbread and the altar of incense. And the holy of holies or most holy place, which had just the ark of covenant.

So as I recalled Father teaching me concerning these areas and how they apply to one's journey in Him, today He took me Deeper.

I now by Him see the gospel as 3 dimensions.
1) Gospel of Calvary
2) Gospel of Pentecost
3) Gospel of the Kingdom

We can look at it as 'Gospel of Calvary' which is the 1st day ministry, or the first 1000 years from Jesus the Christ.

Yes ..... see roughly the first 1000 years after the death of Jesus the Christ, religion taught calvary and what each group seen it as.

Then came the 'Gospel of Pentecost' which we can say is the 2nd day ministry or the 2nd 1000 years from Jesus the Christ. In my study of church history there has not been such a great move of the Holy Spirit in the 1st 1000 years, like it is now in what we call the 'Gospel of Pentecost.' That being roughly 2000 years from Jesus the Christ.

So we can see 1 stage moving on to a 2nd stage moving on to a 3rd stage which is the 'Gospel of the Kingdom.'

The 'Gospel of the Kingdom' is the 3rd Day ministry; and I see that the 'Gospel of Pentecost' and the Kingdom ministries are NOT the same.

There are those who are not called to this ministry, the hearing or the living of it.

I only say that because I have shared with many and the many refuse to stop preaching their 'Gospel of Calvary' message nor do I see the many in the 'Gospel of Pentecost' moving out from signs and wonders to a journey IN Him.

"And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people." Matt 4:23

And---> "In those days came John (the Baptist), preaching in the wilderness of Judaea. And saying "Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Matt 3:1,2

Can you see the change over?

John preached repentance, where as Jesus the Christ taught the Kingdom of God.

Now I know many pastors and teachers say that these 3 Gospels are the same, but they're NOT!

Those called to this 3rd day ministry will teach the 'Gospel of the Kingdom!'

"And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb." Revelation 22:1

We can see that John was shown this "pure river of water of LIFE', the same thing that Jesus the Christ said would come out of a people that believed IN Him, and now that Christ Jesus had died and risen, these "waters" have become one with no mixture, and it's clear as crystal.

It's a people that has been called to that place in Father where they are in total agreement, not only with Father, but with each other!

It is clear that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. 2 Cor 3:3

Today there are so many rivers, the river of Baptists, the river of Pentecostalism, the river of Reformed Christianity, and on and on and yet which river is the right river? Which one shall one drink from? Is one river not right? Odd they all teach and believe in Jesus the Christ.

In the letter of Revelation we find the true RIVER which is the 'Gospel of the Kingdom!'

This pure river OF water OF life, proceeds out OF the throne OF Father and OF the Lamb. OF ..... OF .... Out from within.

YES, this river is proceeding out from within the throne of God, AND "of," out from within the Lamb.

Let me say this river is the Holy Spirit, the water is the Word of life, and it is clear as crystal and it's proceeding out from within the throne of God, ..... AND ..... THE THRONE OF GOD IS IN US!

Do you not know that you yourselves are God’s temple (THRONE), and that God’s Spirit dwells IN you? 1 Cor 3:16

Out from within us shall flow the pure river of life!

Let Deep call ---> "In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations."

"In the midst of it," the "it" is the river. AGAIN let us see "In the midst of the street of it." In the midst of the street of the river" WAS THE TREE OF LIFE!

GLORY .... NOT "A" tree of life, but "THE" tree of life.

"which bare twelve manner of fruit. And yield her fruit every month and the leaves of THE TREE were for the healing of the nation."

Bless Father our Deep. Let me break this down.

1) "in the midst of the river was the tree of life."
2) "on either side of the river was the tree of life."
3) "The leaves of THE TREE (ONE TREE), just like the many membered Body of Christ is ONE BODY, but are members in particular."

"And there shall be no more curse; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him;" Rev 22:3

The throne of Father and of the Lamb shall be in THE TREE.

The way to the TREE has been opened by the Lamb and ALL may come and take the water of life freely.

Father is taking ALL back to where ALL came from!

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God OUR Saviour; Who will have ALL MEN TO BE SAVED, AND to come unto the KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for ALL, to be testified in DUE TIME. 1 Tim 2:2-6

Father WILL have His way!

For He has ordained a people to come into the image of Jesus the Christ, the flesh and blood man who walked the earth, while His heart (mind) was in the heavenlies. The mature sons of Father!

I recall some times back reading Ezekiel 47 and being in AWE. As time past Father has been revealing unto me Ezekiel vision! Before pressing on it has been called the 'Temple of Ezekiel' and it has never been built on this world; but let me tell you it is being built IN THE SPIRIT!

"And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river." Ezekiel 47:6

Notice Ezekiel is called the 'Son of man' (body of Christ) and that Ezekiel is NOT called away, but is called to see the river IN SPIRIT!

"Now when I had returned (re-turned, turned around), behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other." Ezekiel 47:7

TREES ..... Trees represent individuals and as a whole are the ONE BODY OF Christ (Tree of life).

"Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the East country and go down into the desert, and go into the sea; which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be HEALED." Ezekiel 47:8

Jesus the Christ said, "out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water" and Ezekiel is told "these waters," (waters represent the Word), will issue towards the East country". ("east" represents, the rising or coming forth of a new day (Sun rise).

Ezekiel is being shown that a new day was coming!

The desert shows a people who have NOT hEARd; for they are parched and dry! The sea shows us a large group of people who need the pure river of water of life; for they are tossed about by lies of others.

So many today face only polluted waters and can not find that refreshing drink of the water of life!

And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is ATHIRST come. And whosoever will, let him TAKE THE WATER OF LIFE freely. Rev 22:17

BLESS FATHER!

And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish (Matt 4:19), because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the RIVER cometh. Ezekiel 47:9

The RIVER is the Word of life and everything that comes into contact with the RIVER will come to LIFE!

And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand upon it (river/the Word) from Engedi even unto Eneglaim; they shall be a place to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many. Ezekiel 47:10

"But the miry places thereof and the marshes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt. And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat...." Ezekiel 47:11,12

TREES FOR MEAT, which is the Gospel of the Kingdom!

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called TREES of righteousness, the PLANTING OF THE LORD, that he might be glorified. Isa 61:3
