And John the baptist said; "Repent ye: for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." (Mat 3:2)
As prophesied in the O.T. John the baptist was announcing the coming of the messiah, he was preparing the way for our Lord and was baptizing with water; Mark 1:4; John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Mar 1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
Many people have forgotten that Yeshua, our lord and saviour, son of GOD who came in the flesh, was sent to announce the good news or the gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven. Some might dispute this but it is written in Luke 4:43; And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
Yes Jesus did also wonderful things, and paid the price for our sins but it was not his only mission as he preached vehemently the Kingdom of Heaven!
there are many verses in which our Lord Yeshua mentions the kingdom of heaven or Kingdom of GOD, 32 verses in the book of Matthew alone. Here are just a few verses from the new testament;
Mat 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Mar 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Also the disciples of Yeshua were asked as well to preach the Kingdom of Heaven;
Mat 10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Yeshua also spoke many parables about the Kingdom of Heaven such as;
Mat 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Mat 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
Mat 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Mat 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Mat 13:45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Mat 13:46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Yes indeed, Jesus and his disciples were preaching repentance and the coming Kingdom of Heaven! Are you ready?
