KingdomGates e-magazine: Week 1
The Gates of the Kingdom
 
A story of seedtime and harvest, of sprouting and blossoming of bearing fruit with seed unto the fullness ... A kingdom sown, a Kingdom reaped, a glorious Bride without spot or wrinkle, a matchless gift from a Father to a Son, bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh.
Heritage Series

Part 1: Seeds - Prologue
 
Within the Father’s Glory, Jesus Christ is King of Kings, and all things are perfect.  The realm is vast.  So vast that only the omnipresent One is able to comprehend her form for he alone saturates her history, ‘past’, present and ‘future’.  Other citizens of the realm can only navigate that which they have seen in the Spirit.  Limitless? … Yes, yet not omnipotent.

Within this vast Heavenly maze of events lie those eternal sectors which mate to their finite counterparts in the temporal realm.  Like windows into time and space, one has been forever sealed, one can be seen and entered by the Sovereign and anyone he might send …… Another is a sector most glorious and full of gateways with many passing through from place to place.

Near the beginning of the second sector there is a gate.  It is called the Tzion Gate.

On a day very dark in the lower realm, the King of Glory appears at this gate in the Heavens with scepter and crown.  He sits down on a pavement of deep sapphire.

He has by the Spirit, summoned one of the princes from among the sons of God and is in fact intending to summon the whole populace into his presence ‘in the gate’.

Coronation Day…Out from a distant part of the realm, a young man of noble character appears.  Tall and clean-shaven, he is dressed in rich ceremonial garments.  There is a ring on his finger and a fine gold band around his neck.  Approaching with an air of absolute confidence, he sits down with his Lord….

The Fact and Nature of the Heavenly Way…"All these people kept on trusting until they died, without receiving what had been promised.  They had only seen it and welcomed it from a distance, while acknowledging that they were aliens and temporary residents on the earth.  For people who speak this way make it clear that they are looking for a fatherland.  Now if they were to keep recalling the one they left, they would have an opportunity to return; but as it is, they aspire to a better fatherland, a heavenly one.  This is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city." (Hebrews 11:13-16 JNT(i))

Some time before these messages were given, desiring to be quiet and away from many things, I went down into the country with my heart very much to the Lord for His word.  In the early hours of the morning it seemed as though the heavens opened and everything became alive...It all opened up wonderfully, and centered in one phrase - 'Pioneers of the Heavenly Way'.  That really does sum up the verses that we have just read, and, while we shall think and perhaps say much about the heavenly way, it is this matter of pioneering the heavenly way that will be our main concern.  To some extent, it is necessary to consider the heavenly way itself, but I repeat that it is this whole tremendous business of pioneering that way which I believe is the main concern of the Lord, and hence of ourselves, at this time.

Galatians 1:3-5 (via Paul to us, in the Lord’s Community)…Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,  who gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen.  NASU(ii)

From the Father to the Son…“My son, I freely lavish upon you all my graciousness and peace.  It is a gift from me to you for a bride price, that you may lavish it upon your betrothed…That you might redeem her to yourself and that we might extend the glory of our love beyond limit.”  

From the Messiah to His Betrothed…“Grace I lavish on you and peace from God our father and from me, Yeshua, the one who loves you and gave himself for you, to rescue you from your sins and save you from this present evil age.  This grace and peace, I freely give to you my love, pouring it out from the will of our God and father, to whom be the glory of our love forever and ever.”
