Jesus, the Christ: Revelations by: Concerning his Kingdom

I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are thrown out.

People will come from east and west and north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. …

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.

Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

Then Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”

But I tell you truly, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”

Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.

He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;

…they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.”

You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.” …

“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able. …

When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs. …

“Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.

Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

…and come out—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.

Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

Then Jesus told them, “For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it comes to pass, you will believe that I am He.

And now I have told you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you will believe.

But I have told you these things so that when their hour comes, you will remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
