The literal Millennial reign of Jesus is real and coming soon!
Posted September 9, 2015
The EARTH Is The LORD's And The Fullness Thereof
The City of Jerusalem has a great future. I am not speaking of the heavenly Jerusalem.
I speak of earthly Jerusalem, “the City of the great King.”
Matthew's eyewitness Gospel record documents Jesus personally testifying in His great public sermon on the mount to a large audience:
Matthew Chapter 5
34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God’s
throne:
35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
The complete context here is about heaven, the EARTH and Jerusalem on the earth. Jesus will rule planet EARTH! Pure and Simple...and he will do it ON THE EARTH, not just from heaven. He will reclaim it from our adversary and His enemies. He will completely renovate it. The pure bible terms that are used are “the times of refreshing” and “the restitution of all things”.
Acts 3 has the first martyr's sermon after the resurrection and ascension of Jesus. Stephen under the power of the Holy Ghost declares to the religious rulers:
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out,
when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
20 And he shall send Jesus Christ*, which before was preached unto you:
21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the
world began.
*future return
Some bible teachers try to claim that Jesus is speaking in Matthew's record only of the holy city, the new Jerusalem1.
They fail to see that this glorious new city is much farther into the future. It will come down out of heaven
“prepared as a bride* adorned for her husband”.
1 * See Revelation Chapters 3 and 21 Note: “as a bride” The city is not THE bride but contains the bride, the true completed church. and body of Christ, it's head and the bridegroom.
This holy Jerusalem is the heavenly Jerusalem spoken of in the book of Hebrews Chapter 12:
18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that
burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that
heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a
dart:
21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the
heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn*, which are written in
heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made
perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of
sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
*Jesus
Let's turn to the prophets Zechariah and the Apostle John for more information.
Zechariah 2
14 So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus
saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a
great jealousy.
15 And I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I was
but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction.
16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies:
my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be
stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
17 Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through
prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort
Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem.
This is a great future prophecy of the role of the earthly city of Jerusalem during the reign of the LORD Jesus Christ for 1000 years ON THE EARTH. He is revealed with his saints to rule and to reign as “the prince of the kings OF THE EARTH”. The saints; all true saved believers in Jesus Christ, have been made “kings and priests”.

******************************************************
Exodus 9:29
And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the
thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that
thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD'S.
Psalm 24:1
[[A Psalm of David.]] The earth is the
LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Continued from Column One - The EARTH IS THE LORD's And The Fullness Thereof
These “sons of God” through Christ will rule and reign with Him. I pause to ask you, the reader; are you one of them? Do You know how to become one? Have you become one through the new birth; the salvation that Jesus provides? Have you been washed from your sins in his blood? Faith in Jesus Christ alone is the key...not your relative goodness...NOT your false notion of the “love of God”....NOT your self efforts for improvement....NOT your penance...NOT your reformation...NOT your participation in rituals like water baptism...NOT your joining and participation in a religious group.
There is a great hymn that asks and answers the greatest of all questions?
..."What can wash away my sin? NOTHING but the BLOOD of JESUS..."
Revelation 1
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of
the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us,
and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be
glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also
which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of
him. Even so, Amen.
Verse 7 is a direct reference back to Zechariah 12 and links the crucifixion of Jesus, the Messiah (Christ in Greek and English) with His triumphant return!
Revelation 11
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven,
saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Zechariah 12
10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look
upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one
mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is
in bitterness for his firstborn.
The present earthly Jerusalem is unholy and corrupt. She is controlled by Lucifer-Satan and must be abused by him for a period of time leading up to the return of the LORD Jesus Christ.
The flag of Israel today betrays this fact of Lucifer's infection in God's land. The six pointed HEXAGRAM is a satanic and occult symbol, the star of Israel's false god connected to Moloch and Chiun mentioned in Amos 5:
26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images,the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
Stephen's sermon in the book of Acts also exposes this idolatrous worship and condemns the use of the star of Remphan. The Synagogue of Satan "Jews" deceive by spinning a masonic occult lie that it is the "Star of David" and the "Seal of Solomon". Perhaps to the Babylonian Talmud "Jews" of the serpent worship it is such! Israel continues to decline reaching a peak of wickedness during the Great Tribulation as she is called spiritually, Sodom and Egypt in Revelation 11.
The conquering all powerful creator and sustaining source of all realities; the conquering warrior King of kings, Jesus Christ, will touch down on the Mount of Olives. He will return to the place where he prayed in the garden of Gethsemane, sweating great drops of blood in agonizing prayer just before his crucifixion. This time He will be a LION not a lamb. He will be here to take over the planet and establish righteous rule. Israel and Jerusalem on the earth will be cleansed and established in righteousness. God's true saved born again people will rule with Him, both Jew and Gentile as one new man. (read Galatians to see the true spiritual descendants of Abraham to be discussed in a future article). LRS
