does your bible have any other verse in it besides Matt 16:18 ?Kingdom not Of this world but in this world! Seek ye first the kingdom
I give you the keys of the kingdom Matt 16:18
So you are your own God, huh?
Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
The Lord Jesus Christ will sit on the throne of David in the kingdom on earth.
Psalm 132:11 The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
This Psalm is saying that the fruit of David's body will sit on David's throne.
Acts 2:29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.
In the above verse Peter is speaking of David.
Acts 2:30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
Peter is saying what Psalm 132:11 said as well, that the risen Christ would be the one to sit on the throne of David; it is Christ who is the fruit of David's loins.
Dan 7:9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
Dan 7: A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
Dan 7:11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.
7 pillars, 7 candlesticks, 7 thunders, 7 churches, 7 angels, 7 seals, 7 vials, 7 plagues..now compare those description to this same person,
Revelation 1:12 "And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;"Revelation 1:13 "And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle."Revelation 1:14 "His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;"Revelation 1:15 "And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters."Revelation 1:16 "And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength."

Correct, and the person in Dan 7:9-11 is the same person in Revelation 1:12-16 that's "DIVERSIFIED". oh yes, he's all in all. when one get the correct understanding of Colossians 2:97 pillars, 7 candlesticks, 7 thunders, 7 churches, 7 angels, 7 seals, 7 vials, 7 plagues..
lots of 7's
He is All and in All
Rev 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Jhn 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
Jhn 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
is that the Kingdom of "GOD" within you, and not the Kingdom of heavenWell, you should have understood what Lord Jesus meant when He told the blind Jews that the kingdom of heaven is within you, but all you do is post irrelevant Scripture that doesn't explain it.
A Mystery...
David's throne is still... established upon this earth today, as God promised it would be.
Gen 49:10
10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto Him shall the gathering of the people be.
KJV
The prophecies in Genesis 49 are from God through Jacob to his twelve sons in the "last days" (now even!).
The above prophecy is that the royal "sceptre", meaning kingly rule, will not depart from the tribe of Judah, nor a lawgiver, until Shiloh comes. Shiloh is put for Jesus.
We know this prophecy can't be about Jesus' first coming, because He didn't come to reign then, He came to present Himself as the Perfect Sacrifice for one and all time. It will be at His 2nd coming when He will take rule over the whole earth.
This means that royal sceptre, which is about Israel's throne, the throne of David, is still supposed to be setup here on earth today, all the way up to Christ's future return, for it is His inheritance when He returns. So where is it today?
During the days of Jeremiah the prophet, the king of Babylon took Zedekiah, king of Judah of the house of David, poked his eyes out, and carried him captive to Babylon where he died. All of Zedekiah's son heirs to the throne were also killed, leaving no male heirs in Jerusalem to the throne of David. To this day, there has been no king of the house of David in Jerusalem since then.
Per the Book of Jeremiah, he was kinsman redeemer to Zedekiah's daughters. Jeremiah with his scribe and Zedekiah's daughters escaped the Babylon captivity, but was instead kidnapped into Egypt, where he drops out of Bible and secular history. God told Jeremiah though that He made him a prophet to the nations, to tear down and destroy (involving Jerusalem), but also to build and to plant, but plant what and where?
Jer 1:10
10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
KJV
In Jeremiah 31 is where God pointed to those whom He would build and plant, and it is related directly to what Paul quoted in Hebrews 8 & 10 about the house of Judah and house of Israel...
Jer 31:31-33
31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which My covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put My law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be My people.
KJV
That friends... is about The Gospel of Jesus Christ!
So where is David's throne today? It certainly is not in Heaven, because it is an earthly throne. And it is Christ's inheritance.
is that the Kingdom of "GOD" within you, and not the Kingdom of heaven

Then the kingdom was taken from them matt 21:43 and given to Peter, Matt 16:18 the apostles, Matt 18:18 and their successors with the authority of the keys and the power to bind and lose!
Teaching authority of the Apostles and their successors in the church founded in the one true founded by Jesus Christ!
