## Transcript

[0:09] You're listening to Crowning Ignorant Kings, a podcast for citizens with like minds who
[0:15] love God, follow Christ, and have a desire to be an ambassador for
[0:20] the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. We are John and Charlene Donaldson, who
[0:25] are teachers building a Kingdom community. Thank you again for joining us. Now
[0:30] let's sudjust our crowns. Growth is always measured by change. Change always takes
[0:43] place when something new happens, either to you or in you, and so
[0:48] you can measure whether you're growing by learning something new. It's very important for
[0:54] us as individuals to keep growing. Second statement to write down truth is progressive
[1:06] but not relative. I think all of us who have studied some form of
[1:11] philosophy know that there is a philosophy out there which teaches that truth is relative,
[1:15] and this is not true. But truth is progressive. The more you
[1:19] learn, the more you begin to appreciate how much you don't know. And
[1:25] what we're going to talk about in this section this session is some information that
[1:30] will probably expose some of your ignorance and get rid of the rest of it,
[1:36] and we don't mind doing both. I want to be speaking on the
[1:38] characteristics of the kingdom. And this session may seem to be not too critical,
[1:49] but I think it is probably the most important aspect of application of the
[1:57] concept of the kingdom that we have to study it. Basically, we're gonna
[2:00] be talking about understanding the focus that Jesus had, why he taught so much
[2:06] and focused on this subject of kingdom life. And let's begin with a few
[2:12] thoughts. Number one, write it down, please, God's original plan was
[2:21] never religion. And that's a concept of indigest clear in our minds. That's
[2:28] really a paradigm shift because we are all religious people, and I'm talking about
[2:34] everybody, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, Confusius, Scientologists, the High Faith,
[2:46] the Moonies, Unification Church. Yeah, there's a whole lot of religions.
[2:50] And I better throw into part Christianity because Christianity has become just like all
[2:58] the others. It's one mass, if complicated, ritualistic religious experience. Religion
[3:07] is from the word which means to search. So religion is a is the
[3:14] description you give of a person participating in a search. So religion is an
[3:21] activity of searching, and that is why religion is so overbearing. It's a
[3:29] search. You're trying to find something. So Christians are also being reduced to
[3:34] a search. That's why we are still not we. I used to be
[3:38] one of them. I'm no longer a Christian. I am now a citizen.
[3:42] We talk about that in a minute. But religion makes you strive to
[3:47] please your deity. Religion makes you strive to appease your deity. And these
[3:59] are important statements are making because they are so subtle. We have become just
[4:03] like almost any other religion in the world. We do things so God could
[4:08] like us. That's what other religions do, or are afraid to do.
[4:15] They want to appease the deity. Isn't it strange that while you were yet
[4:18] a Synerchrist diaphuse, so how can you try to appease him? But yet
[4:24] religion does that. Christianity the religion. Christianity is a religion of keeping laws.
[4:35] It's a religion of keeping expectations laid down by an organization called whatever your
[4:44] denomination is. That's what Christianity has become to most people. This is why
[4:49] Christians are always tired. They're tired working so hard to not break laws.
[5:00] Suppose you spend the rest of your life living in your country. Focusing on
[5:05] not breaking any law, how could you enjoy living in that country. Citizenship
[5:14] is not the focus on keeping laws. If you are a citizen of your
[5:23] country, you enjoy your country. You enjoy the environment, you enjoy the
[5:29] resources, you enjoy the atmosphere, you enjoy the culture, You enjoy the
[5:33] food, you enjoy the friend. To walk on the park, or to
[5:38] go on the beach, or to go swimming, or to go and watch
[5:41] your game mean you enjoy your citizenship. You don't focus on a wonder which
[5:46] law and breaking. Now, religion makes you tired. God's plan was never
[5:55] religion. Secondly, God's plan was for you always to rule. Always,
[6:01] rulership is on his mind. Thirdly, your destiny is king dominion. These
[6:10] are concepts you need to get into your thought patterns. Fourthly, the purpose
[6:15] of God is Christ. In Christ rather was to restore his kingdom on earth.
[6:21] That's why God sent Christ, was to restore the kingdom on earth.
[6:26] And then, fourthly, every man is searching for kingdom dominion. Now this
[6:36] statement is loaded. Every man is searching for kingdom dominion. In other words,
[6:46] every man is looking for power over his environment. Please write this statement
[6:53] down. Christianity is a religion. Religion does not give you power over your
[7:01] environment. Religion gives you the tolerance to endure the circumstances. Religion also gives
[7:14] you comfort in the midst of your tribulation, your trials. It makes you
[7:21] accept your environment without the prospect of changing it. But the kingdom is different.
[7:32] God intended for you and I to be dominators of our environment. And
[7:40] I want to stress this power bit. Every human being in the world is
[7:45] looking for power, every human being, six point two billion of them.
[7:53] Whether they live under a bridge or they live in a palace, they have
[7:57] the same desire. They both want power? Am I right about that?
[8:03] Be honest? What do you really want? Tell the truth and don't come
[8:07] tomate all that religious garbage about you want to be humble and you want to
[8:11] know just save the Lord. No, you want power, and don't be
[8:20] ashamed of that desire. As a matter of fact, if you don't want
[8:28] power, something's wrong with you. Some of your looks shocked already. I
[8:35] ain't started yet. Power motivates everything you do. Right now, I can
[8:41] prove it. Power motivates you right now. Power motivates everybody. That's why
[8:46] there's corruption in the world. The corruption is not the problem. Corruption is
[8:56] activity that the individual will participates in with the prospect of getting power. I
[9:07] want to prove it again. You want power if you gotta saddle this issue,
[9:11] because if we don't saddle this, you're gonna keep denying the truth about
[9:15] yourself. You want power. Why is it every young person's dream, Even
[9:24] the man sleeping in the gutter on a cardboard box right now, his dream
[9:31] is to be a millionaire at forty Why do all of us think that?
[9:33] Now we don't tell everybody that, but we think that anybody never thought that.
[9:39] Don't lie. All of you dreamt of being a millionaire? Is that
[9:43] true? Come a hold handed, if you ever dream the hold handle blase,
[9:46] if you ever thought of that, hold your hand up, keep him
[9:48] up, keep him up, keep them up with baby, turn us lf
[9:52] lying, lift your hand up. I'm disappointed. Oh three millionaire okay instead
[9:58] a one million? Yeah. We all want a lot of money. Let
[10:01] me tell you why. Let me tell you why we don't want money.
[10:05] It's not money we want. We want what money promises us. Money promises
[10:13] us power, power to where would we want? Drive? What we want?
[10:18] Live? Where we want eat anything? We want, buy what we
[10:22] want, go where we want, stay as long as we want, play
[10:26] the sport we want. I mean, just do anything we want. We
[10:30] want the power. Why do you try to be famous? I don't lie
[10:41] everybody wants to be famous because it's not fame you want. What fame gives
[10:48] you is what influence and influences, what power? So that's what you want.
[10:52] So you try to become a good singer, a great basketball player,
[10:56] a great hockey player, a great football player, a great preacher. Same
[11:00] issue. Why it's not the activity is what it promises you? What does
[11:09] it promise you? Power? Do you know why you want power? Because
[11:20] it's natural? You know. I'm gonna say this to you. I have
[11:33] so much to say to you, but you can't take it now. But
[11:37] I say this much. What was the last thing Christ promised you? Last
[11:45] promise? It's found in Acts chapter one. He knows, yes, what
[11:50] you're looking for. He promised you power, not just power, but power
[12:00] over circumstances. He says, give you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions
[12:07] and over all the power of the enemy. Why, because he knows that's
[12:09] what you want. It's power. Have we settled this issue. Yet no,
[12:18] we're still said on something else saying get it, I could see it
[12:22] power. Do you know why the poor people like Jesus and didn't like the
[12:28] Pharisees. Here's something crazy. Do you know why the rich people love Jesus
[12:33] and didn't like the Pharisees because the Pharisees and Sadducees represented religion. Remember,
[12:41] no, religion doesn't give you power. It gives you toleration. It teaches
[12:50] you to tolerate your circumstances that you can't control, as religion does. So
[12:56] religion says it's the Lord's will for you to be like this. That's religion.
[13:03] So it explains why you shouldn't control your environment. But here comes this
[13:09] thirty year old rabbi from this little town in Nazareth, and he has a
[13:16] message that's not religious. He's preaching this king dominion. He's preaching ruler domination.
[13:33] Come on, let's say it. Don't get too spiritual about the word
[13:37] king means ruler and dom is domination. So a kingdom is a ruler that
[13:43] dominates. He says, you were born to be in a rulership dominion position.
[13:52] Random people heard that, they said, my God, you mean,
[13:54] we could take control of our circumstances. So they followed him by the thousand.
[14:01] Why he appealed to what their passion was, and every one of you
[14:05] got it. He appealed to their desire for power, and then he then
[14:11] demonstrated it. And that made it worse because they didn't only hear him say
[14:15] you're going have power. But now he said getting rid of disease they couldn't
[14:18] get rid of for years. Here's a guy sick for thirty eight years,
[14:22] laying on a mat, and every time he tried to get up, people
[14:26] run before him. I mean, the guy is what helpless. His circumstances
[14:30] controls him and he lays on a mat and the mat becomes his prison.
[14:35] Yeah, comes Jesus, and the Bible said he preached the Kingdom of God,
[14:37] and then he told the man, what can I do for you?
[14:41] And the man says, I was laying here. I try to get up,
[14:43] I can't get in, And jesuaid, well, what do you want?
[14:46] He said, I want to be healed. He said, good,
[14:46] take your mat up and start carrying your mat. Don't let your mat carry
[14:50] you. You're talking to clap. That's a good basic clap. What did
[14:56] he give the man power lepers? Man, When you had leprosy, you
[15:03] had to tie a bell around your neck or a bell around your feet,
[15:07] a cow bell to like a cow. When you were leprosy, you tie
[15:09] a bell around your neck. They put you outside the city. You couldn't
[15:13] come in, and whenever you came close to a human you would ring the
[15:16] bell so they would know you are leprous. And therefore you were literally an
[15:20] outcast you and you were you were not able to socialize with the community.
[15:24] So to be a leper was to be an isolationist experience out of the community.
[15:31] Christ meets these ten lepers in their own little you know uh isolation the
[15:37] colony, and he says, you guys need to go back to your family.
[15:39] I can imagine them saying no, but we cannot control our circumstances.
[15:48] So he gives them what power he takes away, the leprosy gives him power
[15:54] back. All right. If you don't get this right, we can keep
[16:07] missing the kingdom. Tell your neighbor I want power. Say it loud.
[16:15] Do you know why you get ulcers, high bred pressure, you get all
[16:19] kinds of skin disease? Do you know why you got cysts growing in your
[16:23] womb, you got lumps in your breast, and you got all kinds of
[16:26] problems in your sexual organst. Brother, do you know why you got eye
[16:30] problems and all kinds of chest problems and your and your your arteries messed up?
[16:34] Do you know why you got some attention? Your neck so tight and
[16:37] your back aching? Do you know why you sick? You sick because you
[16:41] ain't got no power. Let me explain it to me. Nothing makes you
[16:45] more depressed and frustrated than not being able to pay your bills. The bank
[16:52] controls our lives. They control the car, they control the house, They
[16:56] control how much groceries you can buy, because you got to spin the salary
[17:00] up into payment for the house and for the food. And sometimes you gotta
[17:03] cut down on a mounto food get because you gotta pay more than one person
[17:06] that they may create a bill with. And sometimes you take home stuff that
[17:10] don't belong to you because it belongs to somebody else. You ever heard this?
[17:14] My page had gone before I received it. That's common. What does
[17:17] that mean? Other people control your lives? That's why it won't be a
[17:22] millionaire? Hey wow? And so what do you get, you gotta worry.
[17:29] What is worried? Stress? Doctor Christ will tell you here this morning,
[17:36] scientifically proven ninety seven percent of all disease is caused by stress. What
[17:41] is stress? Worry? What is worry? Concern about circumstances you can't change?
[17:51] What? Why do you think Jesus promised us authority over sickness and disease?
[17:56] He says, it's kingdom. The kingdom gives you power over circumstances.
[18:02] What that's what you want? And it goes all the way back to your
[18:04] original assignment, isn't it Chances one twenty six? You know it very well?
[18:08] Huh? What does it say? And God said, let us make
[18:11] man in our own image and in our likeness. Next statement, let him
[18:17] have dominion over what fish, birds, trees, clients, creeps all on
[18:22] the earth. He says, you were faring to dominate the environment. Kingdom
[18:27] is rulership over the environment. And whenever you cannot do that, then you
[18:33] become depressed, oppressed, suppressed, uncompressed. And that's why he came to
[18:41] set us free power. How many of you could think of some things you
[18:51] want to do right now, but you can't do it because you ain't got
[18:52] the resources of the missia hands. Now how do you feel about that thing?
[18:57] Frustrated? Don't you want to finish that? Church man? De frustration
[19:03] is you ain't got what it takes, the resources. You got no power
[19:07] over the circumstances. Then you go to the bank and then they start dictating
[19:11] the terms. Now you under two prisons. The worry not distress. Then
[19:18] if they do give it the loan, they add interest to that, and
[19:21] then they put a little note this can be called in on demand. That's
[19:26] prison. So the Bible says the borrower is what he's a slave, it's
[19:33] domnion. You were not treated to be dominated like that. You created to
[19:37] dominate, and so the Kingdom of God comes to restore that dominion. This
[19:42] other statement here, the destiny of king dominion is so important because power is
[19:52] with the kingdom promises. Now, I want to show you how the kingdom
[19:56] works. Very important here, Daniel chapter. Some of you never read these
[20:00] before in your life, so please write these down. Matter of fact,
[20:03] we think that the Bible really is a deep book. The Bible is a
[20:07] very simple book. I'm gonna show you a couple of scriptures of who the
[20:11] kingdom was designed for all right, But remember now we are reading the Old
[20:15] Testament. Some of you think the Kingdom of God is a New Testament subject.
[20:19] No, it's us all as Genesis one twenty six. But here we
[20:23] see Daniel. Daniel got a view of the future of mankind. Remember he
[20:30] got the revelations by the future. And yes, what Daniel saw in Daniel
[20:33] seven, verse seventeen and eighteen. He says, but the saints of the
[20:37] Most High will receive the kingdom and will possess it forever, forever and ever.
[20:42] That's found in Daniel. You should read the whole passage. Get the
[20:47] contact is beautiful. He talking about when the Messiah comes, he will create
[20:52] a nation of saints. And then Daniel says, the saints of the Most
[20:56] Like God will do what I can't hear you say it loud, possess what
[21:03] not a religion? They possessed the kingdom? How long? How long is
[21:10] forever? That means you cannot stay in heaven if that statement is true,
[21:18] because they're no rulership in heaven. For you check the Bible, no one,
[21:22] no human rules in heaven. There ain't no room there for you to
[21:25] rule. That place already under rulership. What's his unruly is earth? He
[21:36] says, that is your destiny. A next statement I found very interesting Isaiah
[21:41] chapter nine, verse seven one that we read last night, of the increase
[21:47] of his government and peace, there will be no end. He will reign
[21:52] on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and
[21:57] righteousness from this time on and forever. When Christ comes, he says he
[22:02] would bring what a government didn't last night. But look at what it says.
[22:04] But the government says, the government shall increase and they shall never stop
[22:08] increasing. And then it says he will uphold his government through what justice and
[22:15] righteousness. Now, write the word uphold down. That's not a it's not
[22:18] a complicated word, but you gotta know what it means. The word uphold
[22:21] means to maintain or to function by. Very important word. To uphold means
[22:27] to maintain or to function by. So when you put that meaning in there,
[22:33] the verse changes. It says this kingdom that he will have, he
[22:37] shall maintain it, and they shall function by two things, justice and righteousness.
[22:45] Write the word justice down. The word justice is not a religious word.
[22:49] It's a legal word from the courts. And every time you read the
[22:55] Old Testament or the New Testament and you see the word kingdom mentioned, it
[22:59] always has the word either next to it or not too far from it,
[23:02] the word justice, it says, and he will rule with justice. Read
[23:07] in the Bible to the Bible, he will rule with justice. Everybody say
[23:11] justice, Say it loud, Say it loud. Write the word justice down.
[23:15] You got it down. The word means ready for this, It means
[23:18] I love it. It means rights r G H T S. This is
[23:27] important revelation, he says. This kingdom will not function on feelings. Religion
[23:36] deals with feelings, Religion deals with emotions. Religion makes you, religion makes
[23:45] you fall in the spirit, and religion makes you dance, and religion makes
[23:48] you feel the annointing. None of that gets you anything from God. This
[23:53] kingdom doesn't function on feeling nor emotion. It functions on what right. Why.
[24:00] It's the literal government. When you go into the courtroom friends to get
[24:06] something in the court system, and you stand there in that witness box and
[24:11] the judge begins to talk about your case, and your lawyer presents your evidence,
[24:18] and then you begin to witness. Now Here you are in the courtroom.
[24:21] You ever seen this and you begin to break down and cry. You
[24:26] do you know what the judge that the judge stops the court. He says,
[24:29] stop. Uh, we will now take a break for fifteen minutes.
[24:34] Please go and compose yourself and come back. Why this is not a place
[24:41] for tears. This is a place for rights, and rights are obtained by
[24:45] evidence of legitimacy. Man, you only listening to me. In other words,
[24:51] the reason why your prayers and said, yeah, you've been praying for
[24:53] some things for a long time, is because you think God listen to you,
[24:57] because you come in a funny sound. Oh Lord, yeah, God
[25:02] said, look, this is the legal kingdom. You gotta bring rights to
[25:04] me. Do you have a right to what you're asking for? It this
[25:11] kingdom thinking. Let me tell you something. Listen carefully, and this is
[25:15] gonna blow some of your religious minds on all night prem meeting could do nothing
[25:22] if you don't understand kingdom. Hanging around the courtroom all night does not bring
[25:30] the judgment in your favor. I finished my case. You can stay in
[25:40] front of the court room for three days. And three days and judge said,
[25:45] what are you doing here? You got any evidence? Any new evidence.
[25:52] Do you have a right to claim what you're demanding? Look at that
[25:56] He says, His kingdom will operate on rights and righteousness. Right the way
[26:03] writing is down very important. Why is this word always mentioned next to the
[26:07] kingdom? Seek the Kingdom and its righteousness. Righteousness means write it down,
[26:14] It means right, relating, it means proper positioning. Oh man, look
[26:26] at that verse. He said, This kingdom will function on two things.
[26:32] If you are positioned properly, you can demand any rights that's yours. That's
[26:37] the way the kingdom works. So if you are out of position, gods,
[26:41] don't even asks for nothing. Let me tell you something. You remember
[26:44] when Christ says, if you come and bring your petition before the king,
[26:48] and while you present your petition, you remember that someone has aught against you,
[26:52] He said, don't try to present that why you are not rightly related.
[27:04] I'm so excited about living, brother, because I tapped into the secret
[27:08] of the Kingdom. That's why Christ call it a secret. The secret the
[27:14] Kingdom is not your emotional crying snot nose running moaning, all to sweeping religion.
[27:26] The most frustrated people on the planet Earth are religious people. You might
[27:32] be sitting next to one of them. They are frustrated, And if they
[27:34] are honest, they'll tell you they're frustrated. Now. They put on a
[27:37] show for a couple hours every Sunday, but they're frustrated because the life ain't
[27:42] working. Your life ain't working. Why because religion deals with feelings. But
[27:52] a kingdom is a government with a legal entity. Yeah, he to go
[28:02] read the Bible all over again. See, there was a woman sitting in
[28:07] a religious organization for many years. You all remember this woman. She's an
[28:11] interesting woman. She was sick. She couldn't bend, bend up, she
[28:15] was bent over. She was sick for a long time, and she came
[28:18] every week to that synagogue. Why because religion makes you comfortable in your circumstances.
[28:23] Every week she came to side there every week, and these big,
[28:26] long raw bishops called Pharisees and scribes stood up there every day read the scriptures,
[28:32] deep stuff written by Siah and made their commentary from the Torah on the
[28:37] penditute. And they they were so deep, and the woman kept coming there
[28:40] with her sickness. One day the king came in and they asked the king
[28:48] to read the scripture. That's a rough thing to do, because now he
[28:49] ain't gonn read it. Now he's gonna demonstrate the thing. And he walks
[28:52] up to the partium, reads the scripture, and then the Bible says he
[28:56] fastened his eyes on the woman. The leaders began to get nervous, and
[29:02] they said, oh my god, he gonna do something. I know he
[29:04] gonna do something. And it's the wrong day. It's a Sabbath day.
[29:08] He's supposed to work on this day. M hm. And the Bible says
[29:15] Christ knowing their thoughts, they might have been sip sipping behind him. So
[29:22] he picked up something. He said these words. Now he's about to send
[29:26] the woman up. All right, he said to the whole crowd, and
[29:32] to the leaders, he said, which of you if your ox fell into
[29:38] the ditch on the Sabbath day, would you not go and get him out?
[29:47] Of course he saw them do it, so they couldn't answer the question.
[29:49] Now, in those days, an ox was like, uh, what
[29:53] was like your investment? Because an ox was with the farm was built around
[30:00] an ox. You can't make any money. The ox was like, you're
[30:02] your that's why you'd go with the ditch on the Saturday. Get your ox
[30:06] because you your your your whole company just fell into the ditch. So you
[30:10] gotta understand the thinking here. So he said, well, this woman,
[30:18] and he pointed out, he said, this woman, watch this. Now
[30:22] he's gonna shift in the kingdom thinking. Is she not a daughter of Abraham?
[30:29] In other words, I don't care how she feel right now, I
[30:30] don't care why she moaning. This is nothing doing that nothing to do with
[30:33] moaning. I'm shifting into rights. Is she a daughter of Abraham? Then?
[30:40] If she be a daughter of Abraham? What's the words he uses?
[30:42] Ought not? Now that is a heavy word. She ought to be free
[30:52] from this infirmity. Lift your right hand, says with me. I'm a
[30:55] citizen. I ought to be dead free. See you don't mean to see
[31:00] you put your hand. I say it again. I ought. Let me
[31:03] tell you something that hit me last year and this year. I'm dead free.
[31:08] You ain't got it yet, see said religious man. I'm telling you,
[31:11] my friends, we ain't got it yet. It happened to me in
[31:14] record time. I still can't explain how it all happened. I'm debt free.
[31:19] I own my house, six hundred thousand dollars house paid for, own
[31:25] all my cars. Don't nobody nothing. I'm the only expansion I got his
[31:30] kingdom. It gotta get here, Lift you right hand and say I ought
[31:37] to be healed. See if you ask godfield and you ain't gonna get healing.
[31:41] You gotta go in there understanding that I have a right to be he
[31:44] come on, say it. I have a right to be said again,
[31:47] I have a right to be wealthy. That's a different idea altogether. That's
[31:55] right. She ought to be free from this, He says. God is
[32:07] not supposed to bless you as a favor. That's religion, man, And
[32:19] I know it because I used to be in the religion. I was deeeped.
[32:22] I was born into a pastor's family, a preacher's family. I'm a
[32:25] p k. I know I can write books on religion. I know how
[32:30] to keep religion real good. It'll kill you. Nothing is more exciting than
[32:44] the Kingdom. Let me stress something to you. Do you know why Jesus
[32:50] said go into the world and preaching the gosthel the kingdom? Do you know
[32:52] why he said go to the world because he knows what the world wants.
[32:55] They want power? How come all those unrighteous people love Jesus so much they
[33:06] attracted to what he was teaching power. Matter of fact, it was them
[33:09] who said, no man spake right. This man, they said, the
[33:13] Bible says they loved his words. What kind of statement that they loved this
[33:16] word? In other uds, they love this message he was promising them power.
[33:22] Could you imagine a peasant living in Copernium under the Roman Empire being forced
[33:29] to pay taxes. He have to carry the Roman soldier shield, which weighs
[33:32] seventy pounds one mile by law, I mean the guy is a victim.
[33:38] Here comes this young guy saying, you know you could you can control your
[33:43] circumstances if you come into this kingdom we got you want to see, you
[33:52] want to see why Peter was such a bold man. One kingdom. Put
[33:58] Peter in jail, Lock him up, put him in change. The guy
[34:00] had changed on his feet, changing his hands. Locked in the wall and
[34:02] not sell stinking cell man. And there were soldiers outside the cell. God
[34:07] in the cell. That's one kingdom. There was a small group in a
[34:12] little room praying to another kingdom. And they said to their government, this
[34:15] government as arrested one of your citizens, oh king, and we got a
[34:20] problem with that, so that government sent their soldiers you all better talk to
[34:24] me. And their soldiers walked right past the other soldiers whom kicked open the
[34:30] gate and without a key that they made unlocked the chain, and the citizen
[34:36] walked stepped over the sleeping soldiers walked out. Chriss, not harmed, came
[34:40] to the prem meeting, knocked on the door, and the people says,
[34:44] government answers that quickly, tell your neighbor, that's my government. You see,
[34:50] God ain't got to meet your need the way you figure it out.
[34:54] It's kingdom pal. I said, that's kingdom pa. I said, that's
[35:00] kingdom power. I said, that's kingdom power. When they tell you that
[35:06] you ain't gonna get no more money, listen, that ain't time to panic,
[35:09] that's time to change governments. Arrest my case. Yes, Matthew three.
[35:24] I thought it was interesting. In those days, John the Baptist came
[35:29] preaching in the desert of Judea and saying, quote, say it, oh
[35:34] loud, repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is now. You never saw that
[35:39] before. That's what John preached. He had the right message. Notice the
[35:47] word near. He was in the crowd. The Kingdom was in the crowd.
[35:57] John said, I don't know where he is, but it's there.
[36:00] In a couple of days, I probably see it, but it's somewhere around
[36:02] here. He said, change your mind because the Kingdom is about to come
[36:07] in on us. Why change your mind? Because you see, there's only
[36:14] one way to pay a mortgage. That's payment every month for twenty five years.
[36:19] That's one way, John say, repair. You are missed it.
[36:25] You're looking at me funny, that's deep. You're gonna say, hallolujah.
[36:29] Just now shout see. You got one way to pay tuition. You gotta
[36:35] find money, save it up, or get it from somewhere, or borrow
[36:38] it, and then you pay tuition. God say, no, change your
[36:40] mind. I got away patuition. You ain't never seen, so you can't
[36:45] keep your mind. And that old kingdom. You all don't understand what I'm
[36:51] talking about. Some of you all already concluded you need money from the bike.
[36:53] You already concluded that, And God is saying, change your mind.
[37:00] You've already decided there's only one way to get healed, and now there's certain
[37:04] medication. God's a change your mind. Everybody say repent, hitch your neighbors,
[37:08] say repent. Hit him again, say repent. There's only one way
[37:15] for a man who was put in prison to come out of prison, and
[37:19] that is you gotta go to the local government and you gotta appeal to them
[37:22] and ask for his case to be brought up. And then you bring evidence
[37:25] that he wasn't guilty, and then he's spent five days in the trial,
[37:29] and then you gotta go through all kind of customs, all kind of instructions.
[37:31] Then you gotta appeal and appeal and appeal and the appeal, and if
[37:35] they decide they'll let him go. God said, change your mind. I
[37:37] want you on a meet in the room and pray for five seconds. That's
[37:40] all you gotta do. And I send some angels there, open the place,
[37:44] take off the cuffs, bring him out. There's another way to get
[37:46] a man on a prison. Amen, John said, it's near. Feed
[37:58] them. There's only one way to feed them. We gotta go back into
[38:00] town. That's a three days walk. We gotta spend money, buy enough
[38:04] for five thousand rolls and five thousand fishes. We gotta feed these folks.
[38:07] I'm not gonna take some costs to bring it back. We need some camels
[38:10] to tote the bread. We need to arrange three day's walk so the bread
[38:14] doesn't spoil. We gotta work hard and get the food back here. It's
[38:17] a banquet, he says. Change your mind. That's the kingdom you live
[38:25] in. Man, it's another way to feed five thousand people. Lift your
[38:37] hand up, say lord, what I'm going through. I have a right
[38:44] to be free. Fix it any way you want. Now, praise him
[38:50] for a second. It's kingdom. Stop telling them on how to do its
[39:00] business. It's a different world. Some of you cannot believe that somebody will
[39:13] walk up to you and pay your mortgage off tomorrow morning. You cannot believe
[39:16] that. No, you don't. It's hard to believe it because you're religious.
[39:22] It's tough to believe it. It's tough. Matter of fact, you
[39:29] don't believe anybody can love you that much. And that's where you're mistaken.
[39:34] It ain't got nothing to do with love. It has to do it rights.
[39:37] Man. No fool with me. Man, Oh hallelujah. You think
[39:42] those birds love Elijah? No, but they were sent to bring the cake.
[39:54] I've had people tell me that my face. You know, I can't
[39:57] stand you. You're so bored, old and confident. You come over,
[40:00] arrogant, But I like what you're doing anyhow. Here's a check, one
[40:05] hundred thousand dollars. You've done that to me. Everybody say send them angels.
[40:14] See the angels, gotta send them. They come there and know where
[40:15] to come and hear it is. I don't know what heard it. It
[40:19] ain't about them. It's about the government sending them to bring it. It's
[40:31] kingdom, kingdom. You can't take this that courage. Oh I got ten
[40:37] minutes, old Lord, have me sy Look at this one here, Matthew
[40:42] twenty five. Look at that. It's powerful. It says, come,
[40:45] you are blessing my father. Take your inheritance. What is inheritance rights?
[40:55] What is your rights? The kingdom which was prepared for you? How long?
[41:01] Not two thousand years ago? When he died? It was always yours,
[41:06] before the earth was even made, This was yours. Oh look at
[41:09] this worse. Yes, it's powerful. Matthew four seventeen. From that time,
[41:14] for Jesus began to preach what the Kingdom of Heaven is near or has
[41:19] arrived? He said, it is in me, but it shall be what
[41:23] in you? We tell you something friends, he says in Matthew ten,
[41:35] as you go, verse seven, preach this message with message the Kingdom.
[41:43] It's near. He told disciples, I don't even trust you about what to
[41:46] preach. I'm gonna tell you what to preach. God's visiting us again in
[41:53] this generation, he saying, Look, I'm sick and tired of what your
[41:55] guys are preacher, so I'm gonna tell you again with the preacher preach a
[41:59] kingdom, repreaching all kind of stuff. I've been cleaning out my my files,
[42:07] just dumping sermons. He said, that's not the k He said,
[42:17] that's not the message. That's not the message. You become what you learn.
[42:29] Said. If you learn tolerance, you tolerate all this garbage you're going
[42:31] through. But if you learned dominion, you dominate it. It's that simple,
[42:37] as a man think it. Matthew thirteen eighteen says, listen to me,
[42:40] then, what the powable of the sola means? This important verse?
[42:45] This this carefully past it. Listen, it says. When anyone hears the
[42:50] message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and
[42:55] snatches away what was sown in his heart. No, you think you Read
[43:01] that verse, Read it again, Read again, Read the verse again,
[43:06] Read again. That's the most powerful verse I've read for years. The devil
[43:14] is not afraid of your teaching on the blood. You listen carefully. He's
[43:22] not afraid how long you teach on prosperity. You listen to me carefully.
[43:27] Right, He ain't afraid you teaching people about faith. All the months I'm
[43:32] teaching on faith, the devil said, ha, keep teaching. I ain't
[43:36] afraid of none of that teacher. The only one he's afraid of is the
[43:38] one of that. Jesus said, yes, I know, Dwight. I
[43:52] can see your faith. You're not amazing. You never saw a day.
[43:55] Look at that, right. It messed me up to when I saw it.
[44:00] He said. Look, the devil is afraid of one message. He
[44:12] comes to snatch it away. He said, Look, I don't care if
[44:15] they believe in healing. That's fine, as long as they don't believe in
[44:17] kingdom, because you see, kingdom gets your healing but makes you keep it.
[44:23] See, you can get healingu's they get sick again. But when you
[44:25] get kingdom, you get it and you keep it. Because now you're dealing
[44:30] with rights. You get it. That's why Satan will fight this message more
[44:42] than any other message, cause this message moves the power out of the pulpit
[44:46] and put it in you. I'm gonna say one more thing about religion.
[44:53] Write this down. Religion run on control. Religion gets its satisfaction from controlling
[45:10] the people in it. That is why religious people hate this message of the
[45:21] Kingdom. The Pharisees enjoyed controlling those people. The statucees enjoyed control those people,
[45:29] and Christ came and start meddling with their control system. He started telling
[45:32] those peasants and those farmers and those fishermen, if you follow me, I'll
[45:37] give you an influence over men and women and families and children. I'll give
[45:43] influence over demons and devils and sickness and disease. And the Pharisees say,
[45:47] wait a minute. Religion likes to control people. Look at the religious world,
[46:00] Look at them, just look at them, including Christianity. It's called
[46:07] mass control, mental control, brainwashing. This ain't about brain washingman, I'm
[46:10] teaching. I'm teaching you how to have your own government, personal government where
[46:15] you are ruling in your heart. The king of kings and the Lord of
[46:17] lords and as a citizen. He gives the authority to demand rights from your
[46:22] government to control your environment. That's what I call power. Satan hates that.
[46:30] Oh yeah, Luk twelve says this, but t Siki prays the kingdom
[46:37] and these things will be added unto you. Do not be afraid in the
[46:40] flock, for your father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. God
[46:46] wants you of the kingdom. Man. So what is the kingdom characteristic?
[46:51] The word kingdom is the word basilia in the New Testament. And this basilia
[46:54] it has three minutes and means sovereignty, royal power, and dominion. This
[46:59] is serious stuff, crisis. I came to give you sovereignty. I came
[47:04] to give you royal power, and I came to give you dominion. Well
[47:07] sounds familiar. Let them have what dominion? He said, I came to
[47:09] give it back to you. Last night I showed you the yok he was
[47:13] carrying the yoga the government, and he did what. He took it of
[47:15] him and put it back on you. Why because it fits you? You
[47:17] were made for dominion. Do you know why? Listen carefully, brother,
[47:25] A yoke that don't fit the animal kills the animal. So anything other than
[47:37] dominion is killing you. You're not built for worry. That's why christis don't
[47:45] worry. Don't worry, stop worrying, Stop worrying. Why worry is torment?
[47:50] The scriptures say torment? What means what irritation? And tell death as
[47:53] torment? Whatever torment missed? Irritation? And tell death you irritate your neck
[47:57] until it kills you. For what is kingdom? Is my father good pleasure
[48:05] to give you what sovereignty, to give you what royal power, to give
[48:08] you what dominion? Come on, don't read the Bible like religious person.
[48:12] Read it properly. He says, it's my father's good pleasure to give you
[48:15] what read it, to give you sovereignty, to give you royal power,
[48:19] and to give you dominion. That's kingdom. It is my father's good pleasure
[48:24] to give you what sovereign. No, man, that's too deep. Your
[48:28] some of your doors and i'm'a stop right now. I got two minutes,
[48:30] so listen good. Some of you believe God is threatened when you say your
[48:36] sovereign. God gets excited when you said, acting sovereign, I'm gonna control
[48:50] my circumstances today. Godsip boy, you you just like your paw. Come
[48:53] on, clap your hands. That's a good place to clap. Hallelujah.
[49:00] He say, man, aren't you afraid of that big situation? He's not.
[49:04] I'm not afraid to you. So what do you think? Do you
[49:07] think you you control everything? Yes? I do. And then God says,
[49:12] that's my boy acting just like he dady. Boy, look at that
[49:15] controlling the situation. Every boy say, it pleases the Father to give me
[49:23] authority. That's why when Jesus snelt in that in that in that river and
[49:29] came out of that water, the Bible says, the Father says, this
[49:31] is my son. I'm pleased with this guy. Why he speaks the winds
[49:39] and the waves, and he's not afraid to speak to a tree and it
[49:43] dies. He's not afraid to walk on water. The guy is nuts.
[49:45] He's just like his daddy. Man. He believe he controls the whole thing.
[49:55] We're victims, man, we're victims, and we can be call Christianity.
[50:04] This is kingdom business sixty seconds. All kingdoms are characterized by the following
[50:14] number one a king number two, a territory number three, a citizenship number
[50:20] four. Write them down fast a constitution. Number five, Every kingdom must
[50:22] have laws and principles by which it functions. Number six, Every kingdom must
[50:27] have a government that means the ruling authority system. Number seven, every kingdom
[50:30] has privileges that means rights and benefits. And number eight, every kingdom has
[50:35] code of ethics that means their process by which you must live conduct yourself and
[50:38] call them moral codes. Every kingdom got these things, you can't wait to
[50:46] get one. And every kingdom has this important issue. It has an army.
[50:54] We're gonna deal with that later on in the week, because the armies
[50:58] is the sweet part. Write these characteristics down, please, And I'm trying
[51:01] to teach you now why the devil don't want you to learn about this.
[51:04] Write it down. Every kingdom has the characters of what. First, it
[51:07] has an economy. Secondly, it has an army. Thirdly, it has
[51:12] authority like every other kingdom has an authority. Fourthly, every kingdom has communications
[51:15] systems. Fifth, every kingdom has educational system Six, every kingdom has health
[51:22] programs. Seven, every kingdom has ambassadors. Eight every kingdom has security systems.
[51:29] I love this one. Who I wish you'd learned that one before you
[51:31] leave. Number nine, Every kingdom has a common commonwealth system where the wealth
[51:37] is distributed equally amount the citizens. Number ten, Every kingdom has a social
[51:43] life. Number eleven, every kingdom has a culture. Number twelve, every
[51:49] kingdom has a purpose for existence. And number thirteen, every kingdom has an
[51:52] ideology. This list blow your mind. Please write them down. That's the
[51:57] registers of the kingdom. Every kingdom you study has these elements in it,
[52:01] which means that in the Kingdom of God, you've got to study and learn
[52:04] these elements in your own kingdom. Give you a brief example. Number one,
[52:08] Every kingdom has an army. Let me show you how getting revelation can
[52:12] change your life. You know you couldn't take that anyhow, I don't know
[52:19] you could take that. You're ready for that? You think you all could
[52:24] take that? I wanna close on this. You think you take a lipits
[52:28] of the lipiece? You sure everybody says citizenship? Now every kingdom has citizenship.
[52:35] Let me ask you a question in a in your country, in your
[52:38] kingdom, ui, citizen? Who's the army? And that's where you're wrong?
[52:49] All right, You're about to get a revelation. See here's us.
[52:54] What's wrong. The Church has been claiming things. It's not. I'm gonna
[53:01] ask a question again. If you are a citizen, who's the army?
[53:08] I'm talking with you, your country. The army is a group of people
[53:13] who are no longer citizens. You only listen to me, shake it,
[53:19] look at me. These five seconds are gonna change your life. Then a
[53:27] person joins the army or the Navy or the Marines, they are no longer
[53:31] citizens. Okay, let me ex man it to you. They distinguish anyone
[53:43] in that military with these terms. He's not a civilian. You'll miss it.
[53:51] Because the person in the army protects the citizens, fights for the citizens,
[53:59] defense the citizens, serve the citizens, and dous what the citizens want.
[54:05] They become the servant of the citizens. Citizens. Write it down,
[54:09] do not fight you stay with me for a second. Citizens are not the
[54:19] army. Ron Ronnie Rexler, you used to be in the army, right
[54:27] you know when he's an army. He wasn't a citizen. You couldn't do
[54:30] what you feel like you would. You did what the government told you to
[54:31] do. Are you listening to me? The devil who want you to get
[54:37] this? Remember now he hates the Kingdom message, So he gonna steal it
[54:39] from you. He canna make you dive and sleep listen. Definitely, a
[54:45] citizen simply enjoys life. When your army is out fighting. What are you
[54:52] doing? You playing golf, You're drinking a nice tall glass of lemonade.
[54:55] You're watching TV and you sometimes they show them on TV. They here you
[55:00] on TVC and then they fighting. What are you doing? You drinking cook
[55:04] while you watching them fight. Something's wrong with that. Citizens don't fight.
[55:24] So who is the army in the Kingdom of God? It can be you.
[55:30] You're the citizen. So now you'll go back and read your Bible over
[55:36] again. The army is the angels. I'm about to destroy religion again.
[55:44] That means never again should you ever say we are the army of the Lord.
[55:52] It's not in scripture anywhere. It's in your religion. And that's why
[56:00] you're tired, and that's why you're sick, and that's why you're frustrated,
[56:05] because you're fighting. Man, you're fighting stuff you're supposed to fight. Jesus,
[56:20] show prish the right gospel to the people in the islands. Prish the
[56:22] right gospel in India. Man go and repent change your message. He's a
[56:29] kingdom. What are we doing? We said, well, well we were
[56:37] gonna have a prem meeting and we're gonna do warfare. Warfare, what are
[56:39] you talking about now, I Norman get in trouble for this, but prove
[56:44] it to me in scripture. That's religion. Let me tell you what what
[56:52] citizens do. I'm already clothes. You can check out the tape off.
[56:55] Listen. Let me tell you citizens do. Listen, listen, listen to
[56:59] me. The police in your country, our military, the navy, military.
[57:07] When you have a problem, someone breaks into your house or does something
[57:12] that assaults you, what do you do? Watch the power citizen has.
[57:15] The citizen picks up the telephone and cause the government and say, look,
[57:21] I got some problems here and I need the soldiers now. Now watch this.
[57:25] Listen, no, no, listen, don't get excited and listen.
[57:29] They don't come. They don't come. When you call the police, they
[57:31] don't come. This is amazing to me. You ever wonder why the police
[57:37] has on the top of its car a siren and lights. Why they don't
[57:45] just want to come to you, okay, Lord, have mercy. They
[57:54] don't want to just get there. They want to get there with out hindrance.
[58:00] So they put on this. You make them put on this, sireen,
[58:05] You make them put the lights on, and they tell everybody move on
[58:08] them away. Why flats, you're just called you're looking at me, funny
[58:15] man, excuse me and bless myself. They don't just want to get to
[58:21] you. They want to get to you fast. And when they arrived,
[58:27] here's their first question, what's your problem? Some of y'all ain't get it
[58:32] yet. Daniel had a problem. Daniel said, I got some situations here.
[58:37] I don't like the circumstances I'm in right now. It's a bad situation.
[58:42] So doniall pick up the telephone and called the government. He's a citizen
[58:46] and he told the government I need some situations change down here. Immediately the
[58:54] government sent the secret Service with the answer. On the way down, the
[59:01] angel run into traffic and he couldn't get through to the citizen, and so
[59:09] he called the Commission the police. Michael. Michael said, what's the problem.
[59:15] He says, they're blocking traffic, and Michael says it was Michael fighting.
[59:22] Donny was just waiting on her answer, just waiting on the answer.
[59:27] It took twenty one day, Daniel never fought because citizens don't. Don't scream
[59:39] yet when the Angel arrived, just like any police, the Angel says,
[59:46] I have come because of your words. Tell your neighbor I got power with
[59:53] the government. Close your bibles, clap your hands and praise God. My
[1:00:00] time is gone and thank you for yours. Stand up on your feet.
[1:00:06] Tell your neighbor, I'm gonna call right now. Come on, take them
[1:00:10] hands, put them in the air, and start picking up the telephone.
[1:00:13] I want us to give a call to the government and let the government release
[1:00:16] some angels, some soldiers to lead some police to come take care of some
[1:00:21] situations that you've been dealing with. Come on, stop fighting and give orders
[1:00:25] now. The Bible says that angels are they not servants to serve those who
[1:00:31] are is of South. Come on, talk to your policeman, tell them
[1:00:36] go to work, fix this and fix that, and change this. He
[1:00:39] has given his angels charge concern. Oh God, help me open your mouth.
[1:00:45] Talk on the phone. No look at me, call make your own
[1:00:47] phone. Call right now. Thank you for listening to Crowning Ignorant Kings,
