You are the one naming them not Jesus.

OK.. you think it was
ME (not Jesus) who said the following:
(1) About the Jewish Kingdom..
or do you THINK this applies to the ETERNAL Kingdom?
Mat 22:2
The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king,
which made a marriage for his son,
(2) About the Christian Kingdom:
or do you THINK this applies to the ETERNAL Kingdom?
Mat 13:24
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying,
The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed
good seed in his field:
Mat 13:31
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying,
The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed,
which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Mat 13:33
Another parable spake he unto them;
The kingdom of heaven
is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures
of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Mat 13:44
Again,
the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field;
the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof
goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
Mat 13:45
Again,
the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man,
seeking goodly pearls:
Mat 13:47
Again,
the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast
into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
(3) About the Great Tribulation Kingdom:
Mat 25:1-2
Then shall
the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins,
which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
Dougg... please notice that the Great Tribulation
"Kingdom of Heaven" could NOT be talking about
the Christian "Kingdom of Heaven" because the Christian
saints NEVER refused to preach the Gospel of salvation and
send people off to some other (unnamed group) for salvation:
(but that DID happen during the Great Tribulation)
Mat 25:8-9
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil;
for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying,
Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you:
but go ye
rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
