Exploring the Gospels - Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? - Marcus Da Costa

Having qualified for the next stage on the journey of transformation, Yeshua continues his discipleship programme unto mature Sonship, by confronting his disciples fear of death, persecution and affliction. In accordance to his discipleship methodology, in order for them to overcome this fear, Yeshua not only teaches, but readies his disciples to witness him conquer both death and the grave. Without embedding this stage into his disciples, prior to his accession, it’ll be impossible for them to not only walk in Kingdom citizenry, but also to be it’s representative throughout the earth. Yeshua therefore enlightens his disciples that though they are the light of the world, the Kingdom of darkness and it’s gatekeepers seek to maintain it’s control over mankind, and will therefore fight to preserve it’s power, control and influence through fear, which Yeshua came to free us from.
