Manifestations of God through the kingdom of Christ Jesus,


with Jesus King in Jerusalem


 


O Praise the LORD, all ye nations : praise him, all ye people. 


For his merciful kindness is great toward us : and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever.  Praise ye the LORD.  PSALM 117


 


The praise of the LORD arising in gentile nations of the earth following the establishment of the kingdom of Christ Jesus here on earth comes forth from certain manifestations of God's nature among the nations and how the people of different nations glorify him in return. 


 


Praise among the nations brings to light the glory given to God according to governments of nations subjecting their will to God the Father's will in his established kingdom through the reign of his Son from Israel.  Praise in the midst of different people brings to light the communal fellowships in the coming kingdom of Christ and their professed subjection to God's glory manifesting as praise.


 


God's nature revealed in his merciful kindness will shine forth in the kingdom of Christ Jesus in great abundance amongst the gentile nations of the earth: 


- The mercy of God gives time and grants compassion towards men and women as to bring them to repentance.


-- The kindness of God administrates his righteousness among the nations in a manner that causes governments and leaderships to love God and adorn his SON with highest praise and worship through obedience to his name.


--- Merciful kindness knitts together God's willingness to bring all men and women to repentance to the gospel of his SON in a manner that glorifies his longsuffering nature.


 


With the kingdom of Christ Jesus here on earth following the coming first resurrection of the dead, the truth of the LORD will be made manifest among the nations in his longsuffering mercies towards the house of Israel exacting in Israel's everlasting salvation.  The truth of the LORD is, in part, his faithfulness towards Israel throughout the ages, hence bringing gentiles into the knowledge of the SON.
