Secrets Of The Kingdom
Preparing Your Eternal Dwelling
Evangelizing the Gospel of Jesus Christ
You cannot effectively preach the Gospel unless you are sent.
… And how can they preach unless they are sent?
Rom 10:15a NIV
Assume there is an unbeliever who does not know The Lord. The moment you decide to evangelize to that particular person, the building materials for your homes will be provided. You must continue to check up on them, visiting them and continue your evangelizing. This will add more materials to your Heavenly home.
As “sons of the Kingdom”, we prepare the way for The LORD by preaching and prophesying. The preaching of the Gospel of the Kingdom brings The Word Of GOD to Light.
The Kingdom of GOD advances by the preaching of the Gospel.
John the Baptist came, preaching in the Desert of Judea and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is near" (Matt 3:1-2). He preached ‘a baptism of repentance’ for the forgiveness of sin.

For the world to believe on GOD's Only Begotten Son—Jesus Christ, The Messiah, and attain Salvation by faith, we have to preach the Gospel of Salvation which is ‘the message of the Cross’. We also must administer ‘the ministry of reconciliation.’
For the Scriptures declares:
How, then, can they call on The One they have not believed in?
And how can they believe in The One of Whom they have not heard?
And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
And how can they preach unless they are sent?
As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
Rom 10:14-15 NIV
The message of the Cross is the divinely inspired record of GOD's Salvation offered to mankind for redemption of sin. While the ministry of reconciliation is the action of reconciling the sinner back to GOD. A restoration of relationship. And this ministry GOD has given to man (His children—sons of the Kingdom). By this, souls of men are saved by the demonstration of the Spirit's Power (1 Cor. 2:4-5).
When a sinner refuses the Gospel of the Kingdom, their blood will be on their own heads! (Acts 18:6).
The Bible says that, “the elders of the Jews continued to build and prosper under the preaching of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah (Ezra 6:14).
Religion and philosophies are the greatest confrontation to the Gospel today (read Matt.5:20;9:11,34; 12:2,14,24;15:12;16:6-12;19:3;21:45;22:15;22:34;23;Acts 17:18-21).
