The message of the Gospel of the Kingdom
was a very specific one. The Gospel of the
Kingdom announced the King is here!

If you will receive Him, you can go into the
Kingdom.

If Israel had agreed to the will of Jesus, the
Kingdom would have been established then.
But they didn't. Jesus said, "you have
counted yourself unworthy of these blessings
from God."
We only understand Jesus' earthly ministry
when we realize that He was speaking to His
own, as the King, against an uncontrolled
kingdom.

These people were quilty of treason. They had
gone the way of the world, rather than following
their great King.

So Jesus came to make the last public offer of
the Kingdom to the people of Israel. "The king-
dom of heaven is at hand" is the often repeated
expression in the Gospel of Matthew.
It will all begin with the Rapture of the
Church. Watch for it, because it may not
be too far away!

The Rapture restores the Gospel of the
Kingdom. The Gospel of the Kingdom was
the message preach, first, by John the Baptist
when he said "the kingdom of heaven is at
hand" in Matthew 3:2.

Then, the Gospel of the Kingdom was the
beginning statements that Jesus made
during His earthly ministry. He spoke to
the Jews over and over, "the kingdom of
heaven is at hand" in Matthew 4:17.
In the Tribulation, Israel will make an
agreement with the Antichrist. That coven-
ant will be broken in the middle of the
years (Daniel 9:27), and a terrific persecu-
tion will be started against Israel.

Israel will come to the end of its patience, as
it runs out of arguments for not believing in
the Messiah. That's when they will turn to
God. Then they will be protected by God, and
will move into the days of the Kingdom ruled
by the Messiah.
Foreknowledge on the part of God cannot be
changed. You cannot foreknow that which
will not happen.

Paul says that all Israel, that is all believing
Israel, shall be saved.

That will be God's plan for the nation of
Israel during this period of time called the
Tribulation.
