Kingdom Principles
The Original Kingdom Concept
The principle here is that in a kingdom, living on and using the land is a privilege, not a right. This practice reflects a kingdom consciousness that we all need to cultivate. It is critical for our understanding of the Kingdom and how it works that we recognize that the whole earth is Heaven’s crown land and that we are merely “aliens” and stewards of God’s property. GOD’S COLONIAL INTENT God never does anything to no purpose. From the very begin ning, God’s intent for the earth was that it be colonized. Isaiah, an ancient scribe and spokesman for the King, wrote: Our presence on earth was a colonial decision by our King. He created this planet as new territory, fashioned us out of the same material, planted us here, and issued the colonial charter giving us dominion. We own nothing but have access to everything, as long as we operate within the parameters of the governing principles the King has established for His Kingdom. This is what it means to be a colony of Heaven. The concept of colonization is the most important component of a kingdom that we must understand or else it will be impossible to fully grasp the essence of the message of the Bible, the prophets, and the focus and priority of Jesus Christ. It is the misunderstand ing or ignorance of this kingdom concept of colonization that has produced all human religions and sects. Christianity as a religion is itself a product of this misunderstanding. The primary purpose, …He who created the heavens, He is God; He who fash ioned and made the earth, He founded it; He did not cre ate it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited… (Isaiah 45:18).
