Jesus Preached The Good News of the kingdom of Heaven

Not according to scripture...

John, In honesty I do not always understand the letters of Paul it is not by lack of trying but rather sometimes i see differences in Paul and Jesus teaching. I will be honest when i say that I follow the teachings of Jesus the son of GOD, the messiah our saviour whom I love dearly. I do not want to comment about the differences in these teachings however it is not the proper thread for this. What I know, I know what I do not know or do not understand properly I will not comment.

I started this thread because I feel the the good news of the kingdom of heaven for which Jesus came to preach is sometimes lost and people focus only on preaching his sacrifice on the cross to atone for our sins.

Jesus always speaks clearly and said;

I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life
Joh 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
Joh 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Joh 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Joh 14:4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Joh 14:5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Joh 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Joh 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Joh 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Joh 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
Joh 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Blessings.

Precious friend, you are not the only one; Many are struggling with these Differences.
I have posted some here:

I have decided to follow Jesus?

Amen.

Hello Cameron, simply when Jesus said the Kingdom is at hand he meant it, being one with God the kingdom was on earth then when he walked amongst the people then. This is how i see it . Jesus paved the way to heaven for those who chose to follow Him.

Blessings

Thank you Graceambassador, I will have a look.

Blesings!

I agree. The kingdom is spiritual but does affect the physical world. The kingdom itself is in all true believers. It began with the church the day of Pentecost...I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. That kingdom has been increasing growing since then. Eventually it will fill the earth...the earth will be filled with the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.

Yes, like the parable of the mustard seed! indeed!

Mat 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Mat 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

Blessings!

Excellent reference.

I actually misquoted the above verse...it is the knowledge of the glory of the LORD...

Repentance was always preached with the good news of the kingdom of Heaven where Jesus preached of it. Those who would not repent would not be included for it. And when Jesus said he is the way, it showed that repentance is with faith for coming to Jesus and being restored to God, and God requires justice. So Jesus foretold he would be put to death and be buried, and would rise again, and he also said that he is the life and we would have life in him.
