No Sin Whatever Will Be Permitted in the Kingdom of God

It is hard to believe but there is coming a day in which there will be no sin.

Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place. (Daniel 9:24—NASB)

There yet will be an end of sin. There yet will be a world of everlasting righteousness. The wrestling match with Satan will be concluded and Satan will be thrown into the bottomless pit, and finally into the Lake of Fire. Hallelujah!

Notice carefully the following:

The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21—NIV)

Now, why didn't the Apostle Paul say "Those who live like this will not inherit Heaven?"

The reason is, inheriting Heaven is not the issue of the Bible. The issue is inheriting the Kingdom of God. There is no sin in the Kingdom of God because the Kingdom is the realm in which God's will is done, God's will is enforced. No one can inherit the Kingdom of God on the basis of grace or mercy.

We can enter the program of salvation by grace. The purpose of the program of salvation is to help us cleanse ourselves from sin so we can be part of the Kingdom of God.

If an individual keeps on breaking the laws of the government of any country he or she will be put in prison and will be denied the rights of the citizens of the country.

The same is true of the Kingdom of God. If a believer keeps on breaking the laws of the Kingdom of God he or she will be put in prison and will be denied the rights of the citizens of the Kingdom of God. It is as simple as that.

The Kingdom of God rules in Heaven. Our prayer is that the Kingdom will come to the earth so God's will is done in the earth, not so we will go to Heaven to live with the angels.

When God's will is done in the earth the earth will become Paradise. Then all we are hoping for in Heaven will be on the earth. Heaven today is a staging area for the army of the Lord that soon will invade the earth.
