https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 2 * PART 2 * BOOK 60 THE EARTHLY KINGDOM WILL APPEAR! - PART 2 The Kingdom - this glorious earthly kingdom that is still coming. God has not given up on it and one day, as the book of Revelation puts it, "THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS" will be indeed just that, and He will rule from his throne room in Jerusalem. All right, but let’s go right back to where we started last week in Isaiah, chapter 2 verse 2. Here’s the promise of the coming Kingdom. Isaiah 2:2 Romans 15:8 "Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision (that’s Israel! Well, the beginnings of the nation of Israel – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and then on up to David and Moses and the Prophets, they all had this same concept that one day God the Son, Israel’s Messiah, would be the King on this planet of a glorious regenerated earth. Israel has just been brought out of Egypt. God calls Moses up into the mountain. All right, here it is in verse 3: Exodus 19:3-5 "And Moses went up unto God, and the LORD called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; 4. If you will do that) then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me (something of intrinsic value to God. above all people: for all the earth is mine:" God placed them above all the rest of the nations of the world. God never gave up on the Nation of Israel! I said, "It’s fabulous what God has done." God is doing it. God’s Sovereign! God can do whatever He wants to do. Exodus 19:6a "And ye (this little separated nation of people) shall be unto me a (what?) kingdom…" A king. All right, so this is going to be a Kingdom of Jews with a King, who will be the Son of God, we’ll see that a little later. Then finishing verse 6: We’re going to see that the Old Testament exemplifies over and over that Israel was to be a Kingdom of Priests. All right, now let’s just move on up through the Old Testament and look at some more references to this coming, glorious Kingdom economy, if I can call it that, under which the nation of Israel is to function, and they’re to have the Son of God as their King. II Samuel 7:12 King of the Jews." Why couldn’t the rank and file of Israel? "The God thing." You know, things that are just Providential – God is doing it. Not just the temple or not just Solomon’s physical house, but a Royal Family. It’s a Royal family, it’s not a house; it’s a family line. The House of Hapsburg. All right, so now when we speak of the house of David, what are we talking about? A Royal bloodline! All right, reading on, verse 13: II Samuel 7:13 "He (this son that would follow David and Solomon) shall build a house (not a physical house. A Royal family) for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for (how long?) forever." Old Satan was probably already exalting that he had God whipped. All right, so the House of David then is nothing more than a Royal Family. All right, then verse 16, well I’ve got to look at verse 14, and it speaks of the whole nation leading up to even the present. II Samuel 7:14 "I will be his father, (that is the nation of Israel’s) and he shall be my son. (That’s the relationship between God and Israel) Then verse 15. What’s the first word? II Samuel 7:15a Would God give up? forever…" Totally, totally removed. God’s going to start over brand new! The reason for that is old Satan has defiled everything that God ever mad, so God’s going to destroy that and bring in something brand new. Revelation 21:1 earth:" "In the beginning God created heaven and earth…" Everything earthly was Israel. All the earthly promises are Israel’s. "…shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne (now remember who He’s talking to – David) shall be established forever." Psalms 2:1 All right, so they imagine a vain thing that they can get along without God. Now verse 2. "The kings of the earth (the non-Jew) set themselves, (in adamant rejection against God. All right, then, verse 4; look at God’s reaction. There’s no way we can comprehend the mind of God. Again, that’s a "God thing." Psalms 2:4 Confusion. It’s only by the Grace of God that they haven’t struck again. All right, verse 5. Psalms 2:5 God shall speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure." God will speak unto them in his wrath, not Grace – wrath and vex them. Every time there’s a horrendous judgment on Israel, it’s followed by an outpouring of God’s Grace. Psalms 2:6 "Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion." He’s going to place his Son the King (where?) on the holy hill of Zion. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
