Matthew 6:33 King James Version (KJV)
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Where is "Kingdom of God"? - While taking decisions in our life do we consider God and His will? Do we consider what the Word of God says to me when I am going to take decisions in my life? Kingdom of God comes when not my will but His will, God's will be done in my life, every decision of my life must be according to my God's will and His will is in the Bible, The Word of God. And will of God can not be done in our life unless or until we soften our heart. Cuz when the Word of God takes a tough decision, a difficult path for us, we most of time ignore it and keep walking on easy and broad path, and walk behind the lust of our heart and enter through the broad gate. The Word of God says in Luke 8:
5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
So according to the above bible verses we should observe what kind of land we are....and what is the end of the path we are walking, cuz it is the path of my will and my decisions and that is the broad way and broad gate that leads to the hell, that's Bible says. Again i must say that this is also the same condition of today's generation as i already discussed in my last post:

Righteousness - The meaning of righteousness is the quality of morally correct and justified.
(I must recommend everyone to always read king James Version Bible for the translation issues.)
Romans 4:3 says:
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
In what thing Abraham believed God? And how the scriptures says that Abraham believed God?
His works represents this faith... His obedience represents his faith, his belief. Amen!!!
And many of us says we believe in God in our heart and that's enough, thats enough..... Is that enough? Really!! They says Jesus done everything for us that's enough.
Yes that's enough, my father built a house for me, my father left wealth for me, my father left a will for me, he left lot of things for me he earned in all his life and now after he died i have to do nothing, cuz that's enough....
I have to sign no paper, no legal documents, i have to show no documents to anyone or court or judge that i am his son, cuz that's enough for me. Cuz i have faith that the died man was my father and i am his son and that's enough for me. 😑 oh poor....
The word of God says for such believers in God, to such chrstians, in Matthew 7, that you did everything in believing in God but you did not obeyed me, you did not obeyed the Word of God....
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
In Revelation 3:17 Bible says....
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
Today when the coming of the Lord is near, we are still walking behind our old traditions, we are walking behind the man made teachings, dogma and creeds, we are blindly obeying our church pastors and traditions of our churches and ancestors and false doctrines. We always run from the healthy fruitful discussions of right doctrines like right baptism, Lord's supper, baptism of the Holy Ghost, speaking in tongues, modest clothings, women preachings and so many things. Still we think that these issues does not belongs to our salvation. But i tell you my friend, my brothers and sisters in Christ that even a small germ, even a small wrong doctrine and little wrong understanding of Word of God can take you to the hell. Just a little 1% wrong understanding of Word of God can curse you, me and anyone just like the incident happened in the Garden of Eden, where the serpent preached just 1% wrong Word of God to the eve. He just mixed one word in 99% Word of God that "you shall ((NOT)) die. " and because of her everyone was cursed on earth.
So before the God comes let us be correct in our doctrines like:
1. Water baptism,
2. Lord's supper,
3. Baptism of the Holy Ghost,
4. Speaking in Tongues,
5. Godhead (God is one) not three
6. Modest clothes
7. Women preaching
And so on.....
because our works are representatives of our faith in God's eye.
Meditate about it.....
God bless you!!!
