On the testimony that Jesus is the Christ, El Fill del Déu viu, Jesus builds His Church. As long as the Church of Christ stays in Him, the gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church. A Mateu 16:19, Jesus promised to give the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Per això, the Church possesses the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. But what do the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven mean and represent according to the Bible? What are the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven?
What do keys represent?
Keys represent access and authority. When you buy a house and receive the keys, you become the owner of the house. The keys give you access to your house and show that you are the owner. Tanmateix, the keys also bring a responsibility.
If you are not careful with your keys and lose your keys or if you don’t use the keys the right way, you cannot enter your house or something bad can happen to your house.
The keys give access to the Kingdom of Heaven
And I will give unto thee the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven (Mateu 16:19)
The same principle applies to the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. A través de regeneració, you become a son of God (Això s'aplica tant a homes com a dones) and belong to the Body of Christ. You’ve been transferred from the kingdom of darkness (el món) al Regne de Déu. Encara que vius en aquest món, you don’t belong to this world and the ruler of this world anymore. You belong to Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of Heaven. Through the new birth, you decided to follow, obeir, and serve Jesus Christ.
Com a fill de Déu, you have been made righteous by the blood of Jesus and received the Holy Spirit, and have been given access to the Kingdom of Heaven, which is the Kingdom of God.
Jesús va respondre, De veritat, de veritat, et dic, Llevat que un home neixi d'aigua i de l'Esperit, no pot entrar al regne de Déu (John 3:5)
The Kingdom of God is a spiritual Kingdom and not a visible Kingdom, that you can perceive with your natural eyes.
When you are born again in the spirit and have gained access to the Kingdom of Heaven, this Kingdom becomes visible to you.
Jesús va respondre i li va dir, De veritat, de veritat, et dic, Excepte que un home torni a néixer, no pot veure el regne de Déu (John 3:3)
En Jesucrist, you have been given the keys; access to the Kingdom of Heaven, which is the Kingdom of God. But you’ve not only gained access to the Kingdom, but you have also been given power over the kingdom of darkness.
The keys represent the authority in Jesus Christ
Now that you have been given access to the Kingdom of Heaven, you’ve also been given a new position. You became a new creation, who is seated in Jesus Christ in the heavenly places.
Com una nova creació, seated in Jesus Christ in the heavenly places, you no longer war against flesh and blood, like you did before you became born again when your spirit was dead and your sinful flesh reigned as king in your life. But now you war against principalities, powers and the rulers of darkness. You will no longer be led by what your senses perceive and what your feelings, emocions, Luxúries, and desires tell you and dictate you to do, but you will be led by the Word and the Spirit.
Jesus has the keys! This means that Jesus has all authority in the heavens and on earth.
Every enemy of Jesus, every power, principat, ruler of the kingdom of darkness is under Jesus His feet. Ara, because you are seated in Him, every power, principat, and ruler of the kingdom of darkness is also under your feet.
El vas fer domini de les obres de les teves mans; Tot ho has posat sota els seus peus: (Salms 8:6)
I ha posat totes les coses sota els seus peus, i el va donar com a cap de totes les coses a l'església, Que és el seu cos, la plenitud d'Aquell que ho omple tot en tot (Efesis 1:22-23)
En Crist, you have been given the keys, el que significa que se't ha donat tot el poder, trepitjar serps i escorpins i sobre tot el poder de l'enemic i res no et farà mal de cap manera (Luke 10:19). Bé, sempre que et mantinguis en Ell, obeeix -lo, i caminar després de l’Esperit. Perquè tan bon punt deixeu la Paraula i confieu i confieu en les vostres pròpies capacitats, força, i intel·lectual, llavors no tindreu cap autoritat ni poder espiritual, i no passarà gaire abans que us aclapararan els poders de la foscor.
Beneït ser el Déu i el Pare del nostre Senyor Jesucrist, Qui ens ha beneït amb totes les benediccions espirituals en llocs celestials en Crist (Efesis 1:3)
Sempre que romangueu en Crist i camineu segons l'Esperit, tens tota autoritat al cel i a la terra. Has estat designat per regnar amb Ell i establir el seu Regne a la terra.
Déu no us va donar aquest poder per a la vostra pròpia glòria, benefici, i regne, sinó pel seu honor, glòria, i Regne.
Quan t'has donat accés al Regne del Cel i t'han donat tot el poder i l'autoritat en Jesucrist i l'Esperit Sant viu dins teu, you have also a responsibility.
What is the responsibility of the church?
The responsibility of the Church is to represent, predicar, and bring the Kingdom of God to the people on earth and use the keys of the Kingdom of heaven wisely through lligar i desfer.
We often hear that church leaders (pastors, worship leaders, profetes, apòstols, etc.) fall into sin. Per això, they not only deny the power of God over sin and death, but they also defile the Name of Jesus and damage God’s Kingdom.
Quan tinguis va crucificar la teva carn en Crist, then your flesh isn’t alive anymore but dead. Per això, you shall not be led by your flesh, your carnal emotions, sentiments, Luxúries, Desitjos, and what your senses perceive.
Tanmateix, since many Christians refuse to lay down their flesh, they have adjusted the gospel. They have adjusted the gospel and twisted and changed the words in the Bible in such a way, that they can keep walking after the flesh in sin.
There are hardly any sermons about spiritual discipline, Càstig, moral responsibility, and dying to self. Perquè? Because the flesh doesn’t like these sermons (Llegiu també: El missatge que ningú vol escoltar)
The sermons have changed in such a way that the enrichment and prosperity of people have become the center. Because of these carnal sermons, the flesh is continuously fed.
If you sow in the flesh, segaràs corrupció. And that’s what is happening.
Many church leaders stay carnal and walk after the flesh. Com a resultat, church leaders fall into sin, i això és exactament el que vol el diable!
El diable ho sap, the bigger and the more famous a church leader, who falls into sin, the greater the damage to the church, el Nom de Jesús, i el Regne de Déu.
Malauradament, the devil is still able to seduce many Christians. The devil uses many lives to damage the Kingdom of God, because many Christians are stubborn and want to keep living after the flesh.
A spiritually disciplined and righteous life is therefore essential as born-again Christians. Because you are a representative of the Kingdom of God and represent Him.
Sons of God represent the Kingdom of Heaven
Com a fill de Déu (Això s'aplica tant a homes com a dones), you represent the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Per això, you should have knowledge about the Kingdom of Heaven. You should know what the Kingdom of Heaven is about and Who you represent.
You should know the King of the Kingdom of Heaven and His will because otherwise, you will not be able to represent Him and execute His will. His law and His commandments represent His will. Therefore if you know these, then you know His will. If you know His will, you know exactly what you should and shouldn’t do. You know what pleases Him and what does not.
Per això, you’ve got to know God’s Word to find out His will, llei, i manaments. Because only in the Word of God, will you get to know His will.
Jesus is the King of the Kingdom of Heaven. That’s why we should know and keep His will, llei (llei de l'Esperit), i manaments.
It is important to renova la teva vella manera de pensar, that thinks like the kingdom of this world, Amb la paraula de Déu, so that your mind will be renewed and will line up with God’s Word and His will. A més d'això, it is essential to guarda la teva ment, so that your mind won’t be polluted and defiled by the things of this world.
The will of Jesus corresponds to the will of God. Because God has given His rulership (temporalment) to His Son and Jesus represents the will of His Father (Llegiu també: ‘Els manaments de Déu i els manaments de Jesús‘)
I can of mine own self do nothing: tal com escolto, jutjo: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me (John 5:30)
All things are delivered unto Me of My Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him (Mateu 11:27)
Then cometh the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, Fins i tot el Pare; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. Perquè ha de regnar, fins que hagi posat tots els enemics sota els seus peus. L’últim enemic que es destruirà és la mort. Perquè ha posat totes les coses sota els seus peus. Però, quan diu, totes les coses es posen sota ell, és manifest que se li exceptui, que va posar totes les coses sota ell. I quan li se li sotmetran totes les coses, llavors el fill també estarà sotmès a ell que li posi totes les coses sota ell, que Déu pot estar tot en total (1 Corintis 15 24-28)
Through the knowledge of God’s Word and by living according to His Word, you shall not only get to know Him and His will, and be able to represent Him, but you shall also be able to expose the hidden lies of the devil. You shall be able to refute them. Because the devil also uses the word of God. He only twists and changes the word for people’s pleasures so that they can keep walking after their flesh.
Moltes vegades, Christians say they believe. Però quan algú els fa una pregunta sobre el Regne de Déu, no són capaços de respondre la pregunta. Això és molt trist! Perquè un representant d'un regne hauria de tenir coneixements sobre el regne. Perquè com més ho farà (s)serà capaç de representar correctament el regne?
Jesús va encarregar la seva església per portar el Regne de Déu a la terra.
Com portar el Regne del Cel a la terra?
Portes el regne del cel a la terra mitjançant l'obediència a la Paraula i fent la voluntat de Jesús i vas al món, predicar l'evangeli, expulsar els dimonis, guarir els malalts, i feu deixebles de totes les nacions. (Mateu 28:19, Marca 16:15-18).
On la foscor és present, hi ha caos. Si hi ha caos, teniu una responsabilitat com a cristians (que estan junts l'església) per crear pau i ordre espirituals. Com saps on és el caos? Mira la vida de la gent. Look at what takes place in their lives and in the areas people live.
There can be areas where many people are seriously ill. The world thinks that it has to do with the pollution of the environment. But the spiritual new man knows that in those areas the death reigns through sin (Desobediència a Déu) i (mortal) powers of darkness are operating.
The more the areas are possessed by demonic forces, the higher the rates of (sexual) abús, violència, poverty, Malaltia, epidèmies, impuresa sexual, divorcis, etc.
Why are these areas dominated by demonic forces? Because of the lives of people.
The people deviated from God and His Word. They have gone their own way; the way of the darkness, which eventually leads to eternal death. Because of the fact that people have rejected Jesus and His Kingdom, they have automatically chosen to live in the darkness.
They have given access to these evil forces of darkness to enter their lives. Since these evil powers of darkness rule in the lives of the people, they rule and have dominion in (the spiritual) àrees.
Ara, only someone with a higher authority can cause a change, and that is Jesus Christ and His church.
The church of Jesus Christ has a responsibility to preach, represent and bring the Kingdom of God to these areas. Through the lives of man, the evil powers of darkness access. Per això, a change in the spiritual atmosphere begins in the lives of the people. The more people repent to Jesus, the stronger the light will become and the darkness shall flee.
When the seventy went out to preach the gospel, heal the sick and cast out demons and returned to Jesus, they were enthusiastic about the fact that the demons obeyed them. Jesus said to them that He saw satan as lightning falling from heaven.
I els setanta van tornar de nou amb alegria, dient, Senyor, Fins i tot els diables ens estan sotmesos a través del vostre nom. I els va dir, Vaig veure Satanàs quan els llamps cauen del cel (Luke 10:17-18)
The people were delivered, and the devil lost his rulership over those areas
Sons of God pray and have a prayerlife
Every son of God prays. Prayer is a responsibility in the lives of the born-again Christians, Qui són l'església. Everything revolves around prayer. Because a praying church is a militant and victorious church. Through prayer, you have communion with the Father and make intercession for people and areas, to claim them for the Kingdom of God.
Jesus spent many nights in prayer with the Father, and during the day, Jesús va portar el Regne de Déu al poble de Déu.
Davant de Jesús’ crucifixió, before Jesus was taken captive, Jesus spent hours in prayer to prepare Himself and to overcome the spiritual battle against His flesh. When Jesus won the spiritual battle, Jesus was ready to fulfill El treball de la redempció de Déu.
Everything revolves around prayer. That’s why prayer and prayer meetings are being attacked by the devil.
Many Christians don’t see the importance of prayer, or they pray a short prayer for their own prosperity and wealth. Instead of praying that His Kingdom shall come and that God’s will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven, that’s what Jesus has commanded us to pray.
The purpose of every believer is to establish the Kingdom of God on this earth. For this purpose, Jesus has given the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven to His church.
