We know the birth of religions was due to the loss of the dominion (the kingdom of God) by Adam. The restoration of the Kingdom of God on earth was only made possible through Jesus Christ who came in human flesh, here on the earth. With Jesus, came the Holy Spirit, Governor of God. Through our new birth in Christ Jesus, we were filled by the Holy Spirit who makes the manifestation of the Kingdom of Heaven. As a result, we experience healing, deliverance, peace, and prosperity in our lives, and it can be transmitted to others through us.
There are distinct differences between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of darkness (Satan). *Satanic kingdom or religions* are temporary; they operate on fear, with selfish mindset, in competition, in comparison, with uncertainty about salvation, believes in hoarding and always in want of things. *Kingdom of Heaven* is eternal, selfless, King centered, functions by Laws, faith, cooperation, sowing/distributing and assures eternal life.
As a new creation (Kingdom citizens), we are expected to submit to our Lord & King Jesus, bear fruits of righteousness and commit to His vision. We must refuse every influence of our old kingdom (religion) to become effective as His Ambassadors, here on earth. We must use every opportunity to inject the yeast (Word of God) into the kingdom of darkness. The spirit filled words spoken through us, works as a two-edged sword of God that will pierce the hearts of unbelievers and they will soon be delivered into the kingdom of heaven!
Therefore, knowing scriptures (Word of God) from memory without understanding are unfruitful. Only those who are fully surrendered to Christ, will be given the understanding of the mysteries of the Kingdom. Hence, these will be those to manifest the kingdom of heaven, here on the earth!!
