Jesus as Messiah and King
1. Jesus as Messiah and King
2. Jesus as Messiah and King
In the Bible, Jesus has two roles:
Messiah and
King.
|
|
| Jesus |
| Messiah |
King |
| First coming |
Second coming |
| Kinsman redeemer |
Avenger of Blood |
| Love God and neighbor |
Love God and neighbor |
|
The Jews at the time of Christ expected both and were disappointed in the "
first coming". The phrase "
Thy kingdom come" refers to that "
second coming" to replace the "
evil rulers" of this world with "
Christ" as "
King". Many details are in Revelation.
This idea shifted in the 4th century when the church hierarchy became employed by those "
evil rulers".
3. Cities of refuge
The idea of a "
kinsman redeemer" and "
avenger of blood" appear as a "
remez" in the cities of refuge.

Details are left as a future topic.

4. Messiah and Saviour
Jesus is our Messiah (Savior), in Hebrew, the "
ma-shee-ack". The Messiah is associated with the "
kinsman redeemer". Many details are in the book of Ruth.
Jesus is also our King (Prince), in Hebrew, the "
na-geed". The King is associated with the "
avenger of blood". Many details are in the book of Revelation.
5. Luke 4: Jesus reads in Luke and stops
At the time of Jesus, the Jews were expecting the "
Messiah" as "
kinsman redeemer" and the "
King" as "
avenger of blood" to replace the "
evil rulers" of the world.
One can see the coming of the Messiah and not the King in Luke 4. Jesus stops in the middle of a sentence from Isaiah describing the Messiah and says that this is here fulfilled in your eyes.
The rest of the sentence from Isaiah is that of the "
day of vengeance" as the "
King" and "
avenger of blood". That part was not to be fulfilled at that time. This upset those and by the end of the chapter they are ready to throw Jesus off a cliff.
6. Matthew 6:7-15 Lord's Prayer in Matthew
The Lord's prayer is in Matthew 6:9-13. The immediate context includes Matthew 6:7-15.
As with any verses, the context of the Lord's Prayer is important.
Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And
forgive us our
debts, as we
forgive our
debtors.
And
lead us not into
temptation, but
deliver us from
evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Amen.
7. Thy kingdom come
A reference to the King is in the Lord's Prayer in the phrase "Thy Kingdom Come".
In the time of Jesus and until the 4th century, the phrase "Thy kingdom come" refers to that second coming to replace the "evil rulers" of this world with "Christ" as "King". Many details are in Revelation.
This idea of "Thy kingdom come" to replace the "evil rulers" of this world shifted in the 4th century when the church hierarchy became employed by those "evil rulers".
To some, the modified idea was that Jesus would come in our hearts and not in a physical second coming.
8. Thy kingdom come
Matthew 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. [kjv]
ελθατω η βασιλεια σου γενηθητω το θελημα σου ως εν ουρανω και επι γης [gnt]
Luke 11:2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. [kjv]
What Jesus said: "
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven".
What happens if the following change is made?
Remove the period at the end of the first sentence.
Remove "thy will be done".
New verse: "
Thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven".
9. Matthew 6:10
KJV: Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Greek: ελθετω ελθατω η βασιλεια σου γενηθητω το θελημα σου ως εν ουρανω και επι της γης
10. Luke 11:2
KJV: And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.
Greek: ειπεν δε αυτοις οταν προσευχησθε λεγετε πατερ ημων ο εν τοις ουρανοις αγιασθητω αγιασθητω το ονομα σου ελθετω ελθατω η βασιλεια σου γενηθητω το θελημα σου ως εν ουρανω και επι της γης
11. Kingdoms
Luke 23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. [kjv]
12. Luke 23:42
