THE KINGDOM HAS COME

My Dear Precious Child,
    After reviewing the champions of faith who believed Me throughout the ages, the writer of the letter to the Hebrew Christians expounded about the kingdom of heaven having descended into the earth in the lives of My children of promise.  It became resident in the dimension around the earth which surrounds My children of promise at the first Pentecost and surrounds them in the earth.  It comes to aid them with My power in their times on earth.  The writer assured My children that they are surrounded by a great cloud of beneficial spiritual witnesses in the spiritual dimension surrounding the earth.  (Hebrews 12:1-6)  Later in the letter he identified the beings who are in that cloud of witnesses, which is the cloud into which Christ Jesus disappeared when He left the earth and came to live with Me, the cloud which was announced by the angel as the one in which He would return. (Acts 1:9-11) 
    The author of the letter to the Hebrews identified the inhabitants of the cloud of witnesses surrounding you as being, "The city of the Living God, the heavenly Jerusalem where millions of angels are gathered and the church of the firstborn in which everyone is a citizen of heaven.  You have also come through the former veil directly to Me and to the spirits of the saints who have died and been made perfect, also to Jesus, who mediated the new covenant, and you have come to the blood of Jesus." (Hebrews 10:16-23; Hebrews 12:22-25)
     Because you are surrounded by such a great cloud of spiritual witnesses, the writer of the letter said that you must throw away everything that hinders you, especially the sin that so easily clings to you, and you must keep running the race that you started when you were first born of My Spirit.  He cautioned you to not lose sight of Jesus, the leader of your faith and the One who perfects it.   The writer reminded the readers of the letter that Christ endured the cross, did not regard the shame of it and has taken His place at My right hand.  Think about His steadfastness against the opposition of political and religious leaders.  When you consider Him and His courage, then you will not give up but you will be courageous in the fight against the devil and sin.  You have not fought unto death like He did. (Hebrews 12:1-4)
     The writer of the letter also expounded on the truth of your training in spiritual truths as being unpleasant at the time but glorious in the long run because training in righteousness leads to great rewards.  He wrote that if I did not train you and others as My children that you would be bastards.  However, as a child of mine, you will receive My gift of the abundant life while you live in the earth and in the world to come.  He also instructed My children to always seek peace with all people and the holiness necessary so that you will see Me.  He warned about a root of bitterness creeping in to curse you and make trouble for you while you live in the earth.  He reiterated the teaching of Paul, that a root of bitterness can poison the entire community.  (Hebrews 12:11-15)
     He also warned you to be careful that no immorality enters into your midst and he cautioned you that anyone would degrade true spirituality like Esau who sold his birthright for a single meal.  Later when he repented and desired to obtain a blessing, he was rejected because there was no sacrifice for forgiveness of sins by Christ at the time.  You, as My children, must keep your spiritual antennas sharp and tuned so that you will not be deceived by the spirit of religion which lures you to bind yourself to the Mosaic Law or to pagan immorality from your former life.
