Jesus was born to DIE
He came to DIE for the SINS of the world—
He brought the Kingdom of God to Earth and
HE showed the HEART of the FATHER
The Bible is silent on the Christian celebration of Jesus' birth
If God the Father wanted His Beloved Son's birth to be honoured
He would have taken special care to ensure that
The Bible contained a directive to do so—
However Jesus instructs us to remember—not His birth—but His death (Luke 22:14-20; I Corinthians 11:23-26)
The coming of the Savior into the world is certainly important
However at birth Jesus was a helpless baby—
It was what He did with His life over the
Next thirty-three years that makes all the difference!

JESUS the Unstoppable ONE
“If Shakespeare should come into this room; we would all rise but if Jesus Christ should come in, we would all kneel.” Charles Lamb, English essayist and critic, author of Tales from Shakespeare
Jesus is the unstoppable
He is unstoppable because He loves man
He came to SAVE man and
Show Him his true IDENTITY
His story is like no other
He is the Man of History
He is presently doing Great things
He is the Future—
He will not be stopped
He is Jesus Christ—
The most unique man in history
The Kingdom of Jesus cannot be stopped
The more critics it has, the more powerful it will become
The darker this world becomes—
The Greater the light will be
Jesus is the most unique man in History
He will not be stopped
Jesus is the greatest of all time
He is the most unique man in history
His Name will never fade
He is a Prophet, Priest and King
Jesus is the King of our Government and
His Father is the Ruler of the Heavens and the Earth
There are not enough words to describe Jesus
His life is beyond beauty and His Name is priceless
He is the Son of the Living God and He is our Saviour
The power of Christ knows no boundary of time or space
We are saved by His Grace
No one surpasses Jesus
No other great leader has inspired so many
Positive changes in the lives of his followers
People who encounter the risen Christ are totally transformed— Their outlook on life is altered forever
Historian Philip Schaff described the overwhelming influence which Jesus had on subsequent history and culture of the world. “This Jesus of Nazareth, without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caesar, Mohammed, and Napoleon; without science…he shed more light on things human and divine than all philosophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, he spoke such words of life as were never spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of orator or poet; without writing a single line, he set more pens in motion, and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art, and songs of praise than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times.”

A Political Statement from Heaven in 2011
Jesus said, “But seek first the kingdom [basileia] of God and
His righteousness...” (Mat 6:33)
This is political statement
The TRUTH is cemented in the WORD of GOD—
The Greek word dikaiosyne (righteousness) in the
Original Greek language in the days of Jesus was a political term!
It meant state law—it described the constitution,
i.e the law a country gave itself or the law(s) that God gave
Jesus is the NAME above ALL NAMES
He is the MAN from HEAVEN
HE is the POWER from HEAVEN
In Matthew chapter 16 Jesus asked a political question
Today that question is still asked because HE is the KING
‘My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips” Psalm 89:34
Jesus is the NAME above ALL NAMES
He is the MAN from HEAVEN
HE is the POWER from HEAVEN
We must search out HIS LAWS
We must abide by Kingdom Principles

An Unshakable Kingdom on Earth
“We are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken” Hebrews 12:28
Hab 2:14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. [cf Isa 11:9]
God has JURISDICTION
Jesus has JURISDICTION
The Holy Spirit has JURISDICTION
AS CITIZENS of HEAVEN
WE DISPLAY HIS JURISDICTION on EARTH
The Kingdom of God is HERE TO STAY
God took the initiative to establish HIS KINGDOM on earth—a
Work of design and creation for which HE assumed full responsibility!
Therefore HE will finish HIS WORK—
He has promised that HIS KINGDOM will always increase
His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom and
His dominion endures through all generations—
The kingdom of God is the essence of the Eternal Plan of God
It is an unshakable kingdom and the kingdom is for US!
The Kingdom of God is the rule of God demonstrated!
The rule of God is NEVER in a Crisis—
AS CITIZENS of HEAVEN
WE DISPLAY HIS JURISDICTION on EARTH
The Church exists for the Kingdom and is the primary
Agent of the Kingdom’s advance in the earth—
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Mt 28:18-20
God’s Kingdom is the conclusion of history
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9-11

The Superiority of Jesus Christ
"and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church," Ephesians 1:19-22
"I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" John 8:58
Love is the driving force of Jesus
Jesus is the love of the Father
The Father is the expression of the heart of Jesus
No one surpasses Jesus
Jesus is the Name above all Names
Jesus delights in mercy and His Gospel will
Be carried to the ends of the earth
The Superiority of Jesus can never be destroyed
His purpose is found in the heart of the FATHER
He was obedient unto death but
God raised Him from the Dead
He now lives in the hearts of His people
So that they can spread the love of His FATHER
The Superiority of Jesus can never be destroyed
His purpose is found in the heart of the FATHER
He was obedient unto death but
God raised Him from the Dead
Jesus delights in mercy and His Gospel will
Be carried to the ends of the earth
"For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, through whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison… who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand—with angels, authorities, and powers in submission to him." 1 Peter 3:18-19, 22

The Mirror of deception
You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me," declares the LORD. Jeremiah 9:6
It is a sad fact that so many do not want Jesus around
It is a sad fact that so many are trying to overthrow the Lord Jesus Christ
The amount of anti-biblical movies that have being released has increased tremendously
In the 21st century many are trying to dethrone the Lord Jesus Christ
However, Jesus cannot be stopped and that is why
Everything is thrown against Him but we must never
Forget that Jesus was already tempted in the wilderness
He has overcome the world; He is victorious
Jesus lives on; His kingdom endures forever
Jesus will never be DETHRONED
The battle to dethrone Jesus will continue
Many critics would like him to be married so
That his status could be robbed and Jesus
Can be like all the others; Critics don’t also want
Him to be God because they figure that it is
Impossible for a man like Jesus to be God…
Many critics promote theories that Jesus is
A product of Egyptian mythology--
There number one aim is to try and dethrone JESUS
God is not MOCKED
The criticism allows us all to speak about Jesus and
This gives us an opportunity to share the love of Jesus with them
Jesus was very patient with the Pharisees and the Sadducees
Until the time came for HIM to speak out against them--
As citizens of Heaven we must also speak out against our critics
Movies like Zeitgeist and the Arrivals have only one aim in mind and
That is to try and dethrone the Lord Jesus Christ
Jesus did give us a warning,” Take heed that no man deceive you.” Matthew 24:4
Today many men want to deceive you and they are using any means necessary
The Kingdom of God is PEACE in this world
“Peace I leave you; My peace I give you. I do
not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts
be troubled and do not be afraid (John 14:27)
The Kingdom of God is a FEARLESS KINGDOM
The Kingdom of God has no respect for ‘trouble’
The Kingdom of God CONQUERS trouble
“Everything is possible for him who believes.” (Mark 9:23b)
Kingdom Faith OVERCOMES the world
It is a sad fact that so many do not want Jesus around
It is a sad fact that so many are trying to overthrow the Lord Jesus Christ
The amount of anti-biblical movies that have being released has increased tremendously
The Kingdom of God is VITAL for the 21st century
Jesus is the King of the Kingdom and
The Purpose of the KING STANDS FOREVER
