Transcript Summary
1. When Christ ascended, the gift He gave to us is ‘men’ (Eph. 4:8), while the gift of God is Eternal Life (Rom. 6:23). The only way to receive the gift of God is to receive and appreciate the gift of Christ.
2. The Times of His Throne marks a season over the body of Christ that God wants us to discern. As ministers, we must heed this call and press deeper into the New Testament ministry, which unfolds in phases but holds one core: the mandate Jesus gave to teach all nations the Father’s kingdom and His commands (Matt. 28:19–20).
3. True transformation of nations rests in the revelation of His name, for the names of God are the vehicle by which people are delivered from darkness into the kingdom.
4. The commandment Jesus gave was to teach all things in the name of the Godhead. The revelation of the names unveils wisdom and knowledge that cultures people, transforms them, and breaks the power of the nations through which sin and death gain access to them; for a people are shaped by their nations.
5. God has set us in the Father’s dominion of everlasting life. The gospel of Christ is designed to grant men entrance into this dominion, and until it is completed, entrance into God’s kingdom is not complete.
6. As men who are following faith, where we all ought to arrive at is charity. Faith is meant to raise a person called Christ and that is why the end of that faith is charity. Charity is not what you do. It is who you become.
7. Our entry points into the church may differ, yet if we journey rightly in the gospel, we all should arrive at one destination: unity (Ephesians 4:13). This unity is not merely of congregation, but the unity of faith in the person of Christ.
8. If a church of the Holy Ghost does not mature into the church of Christ, something vital has been lost. For if gifts, healings, power, and crusades save men but never bring them to that same point of unity in Christ, then the investment has fallen short.
9. We must all arrive at Christ in order to enter the Father’s economy. Only then can we truly see the Father as He is, for until now, our sight has been limited.
10. There are still things in us that hinder us from hearing Him clearly or perceiving His mind, leaving us to interpret Him only at our own levels.
11. We often hear the Holy Ghost through our darkened minds, and as we grow we realize we heard wrongly. This shows that perfection cannot come by the Holy Ghost alone; the Son must come to prepare us so we can truly see the Father as He is. This is the ministry of the Lord’s face, from which the matter of the throne proceeds (2 Corinthians 4:1-2).
12. The very ministry for which Christ was given is the doorway into the everlasting kingdom, where true light reveals reality as it is.
13. Christ light is not dark; it is the way our souls perceive it that is wrong (1 Corinthians 13:32). His light does not shine darkly, but our souls cannot yet perceive Him as He truly is. That is why we need the ministry of God’s presence: to bring us into sight, to see things as they really are.
14. The reason we are still here is to receive the true good of the earth that is meant to host a programme: the coming of God’s kingdom. Life’s beauty is found in receiving this kingdom on earth, for there is reward in doing so.
15. We must not build our Christianity on men’s opinions but on His unshakable kingdom. God is a consuming fire. This fire does not consume the enem but purges His people, removing what cannot remain so that only what is eternal endures.
16. The gospel is not from this present world, it is from God. It is the inversion of God to the world of men.
17. The gospel is strong and powerful. What makes men haggard is not lack of finances but the lack of substance in their hearts.
18. The throne is the Father’s promise to the Son. His ultimate gift is nothing else but the throne.
19. What makes sin and death so difficult to overcome is that they are thronic beings, kingdoms with thrones. Their thrones wield such force that even the throne of sin was powerful enough to bring Lucifer down.
20. Sin is not merely what you do wrong; it is a spirit, a life, a kingdom, and a dominion. That is why it can reign (Romans 5:14).
21. Whatever reigns must have a throne, for a throne is the seat of rule. If sin has reigned since Adam, then we must not take such a being lightly.
22. What the Lord has prepared for His children and their generation is the throne. The law, the covenant, and the testimony all exist to bring us there.
23. As we move toward God, He moves toward us. Every step closer is not just progress, it is inheritance. This inheritance does not wait until the end; with each step nearer, we partake of it.
24. Your past in the journey in God can be a limitation in your progression in God. Forgetting the things behind is not the things in the world (Phillipians 3:12). A man who looks back is not fit for the kingdom. Do not stay on your past glory, but look at what is ahead of you (Luke 9:62).
25. The throne is meant to be used, not their resting place. It is used for reigning. We cannot get to our God if we have not reigned and resisted forces that have held men.
26. Man’s true problem is not merely what he does wrong, but the life of sin that drives him, passes through generations, and becomes the life of a people.
27. God designed reign to train us for His eternal throne. Without learning to reign, we cannot inherit it. An eternal throne subdues, so that even death has no life to express.
28. The Church is meant to be the mouthpiece of Jesus, His instrument for conquering nations in us, for nations themselves are the true harvest. For now, we are but first fruits, being raised as the crop that will speak to and uproot nations.
