The CROWN of CHRIST - Understanding the Times in the Light of Scripture

CHRISTOCRACY: King Jesus is Lord
|
Jesus of Nazareth is not a baby in a manger. He is not a
teacher in Israel. He is not a victim on a cross. He was all
these in the past (real history). But now He has ascended to
His throne in Heaven at God's right hand. Jesus is . . .
Ruler of the Nations (Psalm 22:28)
Messiah the Prince (Daniel 9:25)
Our Judge, Law-giver & King (Isaiah 33:22)
King of the Nations (Jeremiah 10:7)
Ruler over the kings of the earth (Revelation 1:5)
Only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords
(1 Timothy 6:15)
...IN RIGHTEOUSNESS HE JUDGES AND MAKES WAR.
(Revelation 19:11)
The United States were founded on the godless principles of humanism: toleration
of witchcraft, idolatry, blasphemy and heathenism. American Christians had better
wake up - this is not "God's country" and it is no improvement over historic
Christendom.
Now therefore, be wise, O kings;
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the Son, lest he be angry... (Psalm 2:10-12a)
Monarchy, empire, arisocracy and republic are all valid forms of human
government. It is not the FORM that matters. If anything, the Bible assumes and
approves of rule by a king.
...submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake, whether to
the king as supreme, or to governors, as to those who are sent by him...
(1 Peter 2:13&14a)
Foolish Christians today claim that it is ungodly to dissent from our humanist and
democratic governments. They believe those who won't vote have no right to
complain. But those who vote and still complain are only sore losers. Christians
should hold out for real Christocracy, not voting for the "lesser of two evils" - which
is, after all, EVIL.
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.
For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness?
And what communion has light with darkness?
And what accord has Christ with Belial?
(2 Corinthians 6:14&15a)
The Bible nowhere teaches that government is the product of "we the people".
Instead, God demands that civil leaders submit to Him. A Christian government
would own the covenants of its godly predecessors, publically recognize Christ as
King, and reform its laws in a Biblical pattern. May God hasten the day of
Christendom's victory!
Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying,
"The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his
Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!" (Revelation 11:15)
