Mark 14:25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.


Jesus was speaking to the disciples at the passover meal. Jesus told them he would not drink of the fruit of the vine again until the kingdom of God. The kingdom he spoke of is the prophetic Davidic kingdom promised the believing remnant of Israel (Revelation 5:10 Luke 1:32 Luke 12:32).

Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Paul also spoke of the kingdom of God. Paul said the kingdom is not drink, yet Jesus emphasized that he would drink in the kingdom.

Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

It would stand to reason then, that when Paul speaks of the kingdom of God, it is the heavenly kingdom he spoke of, not the earthly.

Matthew_26:29, Mark_2:21, 14:25, Luke_5:36, John_19:41, Ephesians_2:15, 4:24, Revelation_2:17, 21:1 use the same Greek word embedded with the root word G:2537.

Matthew_26:29 expresses what Jesus was also saying in Mark_14:25: -

Matthew_26:29: - 29 But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom."

In both accounts of the Last Supper, Jesus is saying that He will not drink from the cup/the wine until His body is refurbished like new again in the kingdom of God. In the Matthew account, he says that the disciples' bodies will be refurbished like new again as well when they drink again from the cup together.

Now as to your claim that the kingdom is "is the prophetic Davidic kingdom promised the believing remnant of Israel," I am not sure that is what is being references in Mark_14:25 as you are suggesting.

The question that we should be asking is, "What is our inheritance when we are found to be righteous at the end of the Age of the Ages?"

The other question that comes to mind is, "Where is location of the Kingdom of God at that time?"

Shalom

Hello

In Romans 14:17 Paul said the kingdom is not meat and drink

This is in contrast to Jesus saying there would be drink in the earthly Davidic kingdom.

That is not a contradiction but is talking of two different kingdoms in Mark 14:25.
