Where is the Kingdom of Yeshua Mashiyach?

We have much assurance about entering into the Kingdom of Elohim, but we must know where this Kingdom is and where it is not. "We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that does love not his brother abides in death." 1 John 3:14 But then discussion ensues when the question is asked, what is love? Love cannot easily be defined by a theological or intellectual model, there is only one definition in Scripture for Love. "He that loves not, knows not Elohim; for Elohim (G-d) is love." 1 John 4:8 Love is where the things of Elohim are, in Love there is Judgment, Faith and Mercy because Elohim is Love. Love is mentioned throughout the Bible, it takes all the Scriptures to define love, because in the effort of defining Love, one is also defining Elohim (G-d), because Elohim is Love. Wherever Elohim is there is Love, this is where the Kingdom of Elohim also is, these are inseparable.

The Kingdom of Elohim is the government of Yeshua Mashiyach those who are in Mashiyach have His Kingdom within. The Kedoshim (Holy People) walk according to the Kingdom of Elohim and reject the injustice and hypocrisy of all false teaching and government.

"Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Mashiyach, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Messiahs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Matthew 24:23-27

The Kingdom of Elohim requires each soul to observance times and seasons as Kadosh (set-apart/holy), and uphold all Righteousness as a Mishpocha (family). YHWH places His Name upon His people as we enter into Covenant with Him, and as we do so we come out of the World. Many have a theology about coming out of the world, but don't actually feel the need to do so. The Kingdom of Elohim is NOT of this world

"Yeshua answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if My Kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is My Kingdom not from hence." John 18:36

The deceptions among those who call themselves "Believers" or Christians is they think, teach and live as though they can have both, the want to live out their "American Dreams" and they want to be part of the Kingdom of Elohim. The great deception is they think they can have both, but they deceive themselves.

"No man can serve two masters : for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." Matthew 6:24

Those who are living in the Kingdom of Elohim have come out of Babylon, neither they or their tax money is being used by their "State" to wage war against the poor or the innocent. Those in the Kingdom of Elohim uphold a demarcation between what is YHWH's and what is of this world. Some "Believers" are certain that rendering unto Caesar means to faithfully pay taxes to Caesar, this is the result of succumbing to lukewarm, double minded religious tyranny.

And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, "Does not your master pay tribute?" He said, "Yes". And when he was come into the house, Yeshua prevented him, saying, "What do you think, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?" Peter said unto Him, "Of strangers." Yeshua said unto him, "Then are the children free. Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, you shall find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee. " Matthew 17:24-27

Caesar requires that each one in the Household of Faith pays tribute unto Caesar, regardless of which country we live in, but each one of us also has opportunity to come out of Caesar's system. We are not required by the laws of Caesar to pay tribute to Caesar unless we make money that is taxable according to Caesar. In other words yes, we are required to pay tax to a malicious and blood thirsty system of government that is hell bend on oppression of the poor, if we choose. But we could also choose to live and operate in a community where our efforts are shared equally according to Torah. This is how Yeshua and His Talmidim lived, they were not entangled with the things of this world, as most "Believers" are today.

Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle Him in his talk. And they sent out unto Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that you are true, and teach the way of Elohim in truth, neither are you a respecter of man: for you regard not the person of men. Tell us therefore, What do you think? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? But Yeshua perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, you hypocrites? Show me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. And he said unto them, Whose is this image and inscription? They say unto him, Caesar's. Then he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto Elohim the things that belong to Elohim. Matthew 22:15-21

The fact of the matter is that those who claim to be Disciples of Yeshua are as much a "faithless and perverse generation" as any other group of people who are dependant upon Caesar. In other words if we are searching for the Kingdom of Elohim we must know what qualifies the people of Elohim to be His peculiar treasure. The Kingdom of Elohim operates where there is no oppression of the poor, it is impossible for one to say he is part of the Kingdom of Elohim, but then be giving a large portion of his gifts, talents and abilities to Caesar so that Caesar can make war against the Kingdom of Elohim. This is a faithless and perverse generation that would do this. Many "Believers" think they can have both, but they are very deceived because no man can serve two masters. Some faithless and perverse "Believers" pay tithes to YHWH with their after tax income, after they've serviced Caesar. By their actions they show who their god is, by their words they speak great flowery things of their religion.

Where is the Kingdom of Elohim for each of us, has everything to do with where are hearts are. If we have eyes to see and ears to hear we will see the Kingdom of Elohim in the actions of His People and we will see it in the love and sacrifice each one has to walk as a Kedoshim, a peculiar people. Life itself is not the highest order of our existence, YHWH is higher than life. The people of YHWH respect all life, but prefer the souls who sacrifice (give something of value) to the Kingdom of Elohim.

"Thou are of purer eyes than to behold evil, and can not look on iniquity: how can you look upon them that deal treacherously, and hold your tongue when the wicked devour the man that is more righteous than he?" Habakkuk 1:13

And YHWH answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2:2-4

Where is the Kingdom of Mashiyach?

Fools compare themselves with others,

supposing they have entered into the Kingdom of Elohim,

but the Kingdom is not by observation

And Yeshua answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

They are not found that returned to give glory to Elohim, save this stranger.

And He said unto him, Arise, go your way: your Faith has made you whole.

And when the Pharisees demanded to know of Him, when the kingdom of Elohim should come,

He answered them and said, The kingdom of Elohim comes not with observation:

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold,

the Kingdom of Elohim is within you.

And He said unto the disciples, The days will come,

when you shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you shall not see it.

Luke 17:17-22
