Title: The Kingdoms and the Church November 7, 2009
Author: Robert Porter
I wrote this story to share what the Spirit of my Lords has taught me about the Kingdom of God versus the Kingdom of Heaven, and about the Body of Christ, which is the Church of the living God. While the principles are the same, kingdoms and our churches in the natural are totally different from the Kingdoms and the Church in the spiritual realm. So when it comes to the spiritual realm, this is my endeavor to explain about…“The Kingdoms and the Church.”
The Kingdom of God versus the Kingdom of Heaven! What is the difference? The Spirit taught me that when you replace the word “Kingdom” with “Angel” in the phrase “Kingdom of God”, you would obviously have “Angel of God”. This holy Angel is called the Comforter, the Spirit of truth that comes as a Messenger of truth from both God the Father and the living God, and now Jesus, coming by the Comforter in the Holy Ghost. The Kingdom of God is an Angelic Creature that comes as a Messenger of truth and righteousness from our Father’s heavenly throne.
The same goes for the Kingdom of Heaven. When you replace “Kingdom” with “Angel” in the phrase “Kingdom of Heaven”, you obviously have “Angel of Heaven”. Which is short for the Angel that our heavenly Father has chosen to be Lord over His creation of the heavenly host (angels): chosen also to be a true and faithful witness to the Word of God the Father. This Lord is the One who said to the Father: “Let Us make man in Our image.” And since the Lord is One with the Father when it comes to the creation of mankind, it is only proper for this mighty Angel to wear the holy title “Kingdom of Heaven”, which represents that He is a King in the Kingdom of our heavenly Father.
What about the Church – the Body of Christ? The Church is made up of all the souls in the world that have given their hearts (angels) and souls to Jesus, have been baptized by Jesus into the Holy Ghost (immersed into the living water [energy] that proceeds from this invisible Cloud known as the Holy Ghost), and born-again (transformed) by the Spirit when She comes as a Messenger from Jesus, when one has truly given their heart and soul to Jesus. At least this is how it worked for me. And this is what I believe makes one a member of the Body of Christ, the invisible and Spiritual Church of the living God.
Our faith determines whether the Father will send His Kingdom in the Holy Spirit to us as a Messenger from the Kingdom of heaven, from the King of glory in the living God whom our Father has placed on His heavenly throne, and from He who is the Prince of Peace in the Kingdom of heaven, but a great High Priest in the living Church of the living God. When it comes to the Church, the Kingdom comes from a Man who gave His life that we might have the gift of Eternal Life, even today while we live in the land of the living, as well as in that day when our souls will exist for all eternity in the Presence of our heavenly Father, the living God and Jesus, in that world to come.
If you have been baptized by Jesus into the living water (spiritual energy) that proceeds from our Father’s Holy Ghost, as I have, and have been born again of the Spirit of truth and righteousness, as I have, then you also are a member of the Body of Christ, as I am. And we would know each other through this one and same Spirit that makes us fellow brethren in the Church, the living Church of the living God.
But to receive anything from the Father concerning the Kingdoms or the Church, it all begins with faith. How does God know if a man has faith in Him and in Jesus? A man’s heart (angel) being a true and faithful witness to his soul, will testify as to whether he has faith in God, truly believe that God the Father has raised Jesus from the dead, and that Jesus is now at the right hand of the living God, both of Them dwelling in the bosom of our heavenly Father. God knows whether we have faith or not by our hearts, which are true and faithful witnesses unto our souls.
There you have it. My best effort to explain about God’s Spiritual Kingdoms and the Church. If you have not hardened your heart to the point where this angel has divorced itself from your soul, then you’re still a citizen of the Kingdom of God in good standing. And you have a good ground that you can offer to Jesus in order to become a member of the Church. Speaking by the authority God has given me through my angel Elijah and the holy Spirit of prophecy from above called Jerusalem, I can truly say that the Holy Spirit represents the Kingdom of God, and the living God represents the Kingdom of heaven. Jesus, the great high Priest of the living Church of the living God, represents the Church. There you have it… “The Kingdoms and the Church.”
