seed in it. They will be yours for food.30And to all the beasts
of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures
that move along the groundeverything that has the breath

there will be no end.
He will reign on Davids throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness

not into a Religion

dark power of Satan and
brought us into the Kingdom of

the KINGDOM through repentance and believing
JESUS.

away from our old life back to the KINGDOM life through
JESUS

heart one believes and is justified, and with
the mouth one confesses and is
saved.
