"Your Kingdom...Your Power"

"They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom, and talk of Your power....Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom...."  (Psalm 145:11, 13a) 
 
Some Christians' main interests are political, social, moral, familial, religious, or philosophical.  This is not Biblical, nor is it in the "natural order" of the created universe.  We were created for the Living Triune God, to walk with Him and in Him, and He in us.  Ideas and talk of the aforementioned aspects of a people group are only valid as they relate to and, "speak of the glory of [Christ's] kingdom (the, 'everlasting Kingdom'), and talk of[Christ's] power," as in, "Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever."  This is our "call" and our command, "commission."  The way many religious folk speak of political, social, and "the moral fiber" of nations are agenda motivated, prejudiced by their gender, culture, and/or ethnicity.  
 
According to Strong's, we can translate verse 13, "Your kingdom is a kingdom of 'eternity,' a kingdom 'time out of mind.'"  The whole of Psalm 145 expresses the central message of the Bible, "Your Kingdom" (see John 3), and a, "Your power."  The "salvation message," which evangelicalism has so centralized, is the result of, "Your power."  Romans one says, "the Gospel of Christ...is the power of God to (into, concerning) salvation."  
 
I guarantee you that if people's loyalty is limited to their own thematic preferences, a "gospel" of their own "tweaking," they will experience only disappointment, bitterness, even fear.  But there is a realm of life into which you and I as Followers of Jesus Christ were born, "to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God...."  Notice, "incorruptible... undefiled...does not fade away, reserved...kept by the power of God."  Such "absurd" claims can only be made with truth in, "a kingdom 'time out of mind,'" the, "Kingdom of Our Lord and of His Christ," the Kingdom of which you and I are invited to, "speak," and, "talk." 
 
Father, in Jesus' Name, "Your Kingdom is [my] Kingdom."  Amen.
