GOSPEL of the KINGDOM.
When
our Lord Jesus was here on earth doing the work he was sent to do by his Father, it
is written:
“And
Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the [GOSPEL
OF THE KINGDOM], and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease
among the people.
And
his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people
that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were
possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the
palsy; and he healed them.
And
there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis,
and from Jerusalem, and from Judæa, and from beyond Jordan” (Matthew 4:23-25).
“AND
seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his
disciples came unto him:
And
he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Blessed
are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed
are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Blessed
are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed
are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be
filled.
Blessed
are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed
are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Blessed
are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Blessed
are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the
kingdom of heaven.
Blessed
are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner
of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice,
and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted
they the prophets which were before you” (Matthew 5:1-12).
“Jesus
Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8), says: “The
time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: [REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE
THE GOSPEL]” (Mark 1:15).
“Except
ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). “For I came down from
heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38).
“And this [GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM] shall be
preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall [THE
END] come” (Matthew 24:14).
