The NASB is a commentary more than anything else, written by those with the same mentality as people like Charles darwin who came out of the seminary and taught the foundations of communism and depopulation religion. They have no respect for the SCRIPTURES. Do not pray to the FATHER when they write. Do not ask for HIS SPIRIT to move over them, because they do not respect HIS PASSOVER and PENTECOST. The KJV 1611 was written for a reason. China has been without a bible for 5000 years. And the KJV was written for people like them. BIBLES like the NASB and NIV are written to waste people's time and confuse them.
JESUS is the glory of GOD. His work. So we live here, and the apostles talked about their JOY, which is JESUS.
And as far back as King David jumping for JOY here on earth, boasting about his righteousness, which was not his but rather he was talking about the righteousness of GOD.
The kingdom was established all the way as far back as when GOD/JESUS threw the enemy out of the kingdom
And even as far back as when he made his promise with Eve. People forget that. HE made his promise with Eve, that her foot would crush the serpent.
And, GOD spoke with them. There you have GOD revealed to them. JESUS. Jesus is the alpha and omega.
And in Genesis he is called the voice... and John says HE is the word. And that HE was in the beginning.
Abraham lived according to faith.
The kingdom came down on calvery, and then went back up, but left us the pentecost and the teachings of the BIBLE, which by the way are the 66 books. And Isaiah is the only book in the BIBLE with 66 chapters, and is just about JESUS, JESUS, JESUS.
His Glory is everywhere, fills the heaven and earth. And this is HIS footstool. The Kingdom will be magnificent, but the 12 apostles taught to joy in the LORD. Because HIS JOY is here, and has been here for a very long time.
Remember when Noah built the arc?
And then Moses built the golden arc?
And Melchizedek blessed Abraham?
And Enoch went to heaven, and was no more?
And Lamech lived how many 777 years?
And Noah lived 500 years, and then had children?
The SCRIPTURE talks about GOD visiting the sins and iniquities of our forefathers for several generations.
Even though the earth around us is decaying, that does not change that HIS SPIRIT is with is. The KINGDOM is with us.
