Many Christians are in turmoil because they are conflicted in the area of righteousness. The therefore have no peace, and without peace there is no joy. This episode delves into what true righteousness (faith-based righteousness) really is and what Christians need to do about it.

"…for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit." —Romans 14:17

Daniel 7:7-14

The day that we live in is a day is filled with arrogance and much of that can be attributed to the antigod kingdom. This episode examines Daniel's vision of the four beasts and explains what the antigod kingdom is all about. We also hear how Christ rules God's Kingdom with all authority, is the Lord of History, and how He invites us to take part in His Kingdom and the overcoming of evil.

We live in the real world, and we must live in reality, not fantasy. Yet, the journey that we embark upon and the Kingdom that we are a part of is totally spiritual. It has no attachment to this world even though it must encounter it. In this teaching we here about the important steps we must take on this journey.

Satan has always had his own plan to have a one world kingdom that stands against God. However, in this episode we hear about how God, in a moment, did the one thing that would ensure division in that kingdom forever.

History has been defined by the words, “seize the edges of the earth and shake the wicked out.” This episode builds on the previous two episodes and sets the foundation for the rest of “The Kingdom Series” by connecting creation theology to a theodicy.

The beginning of understanding the Kingdom of God starts with knowing, “where does my help come from”.

David J. Jones sets the scene in this teaching leading up to a series on the Kingdom. Jesus refers to this passage of scripture explaining the environment of God’s Kingdom (where He rules without compromise and His will is actually seen to be done). It is all about freedom and reversing what the darkness has done to people.

In the last episode of this series David J. Jones explains how counter-intuitive the fruit of self-control is for people and he also explains what we need to do to grow in this area.

True gentleness will strengthen others. Our God, who is so powerful, withholds His power for the sake of those who are weak, in need, and in bondage to sin so that His gentleness can touch us and we can be strengthened.
