why YEHOVAH God Must Rule

The Messiah said: "You (the Twelve Apostles) have not chosen me, but I have chosen YOU, and ordained YOU..." (John 15:16).

Nearly two thousand long years ago, "Jesus came into Galilee preaching the Gospel of the KINGDOM OF God," the good news of the GOVERNMENT of God (Mark 1:14). The Messiah continually spoke of the Kingdom of YEHOVAH God which he revealed would literally be set up on this earth.

In the near future the nations of this earth are going to see first-hand what the wonderful government of YEHOVAH God Almighty is like. They will be utterly amazed, There will be no more Communism, no more Fascism. His government will not be left in the hands of the ignorant masses of people (see Daniel 2:44, 7:27). YEHOVAH's government will be the Supreme Authority ruled by YEHOVAH God Himself from Jerusalem, Palestine (Jeremiah 3:17; Joel 2:32; Zechariah 2:12, 8:20-23, 14:16-19).

As an example: Yeshua the Messiah will rule over the nation of Israel and, evidently, King David will be resurrected to serve under him (Ezekiel 34:23, 37:24, 25; Jeremiah 30:9; Hosea 3:5). UNDER DAVID will be the TWELVE APOSTLES who will rule over the Twelve Tribes of Israel (Matthew 19:28). Under them will be the lesser rulers, the then-made-immortal Christian Israelites ruling in lesser offices of authority (see Luke 19:12-19). "And he [of Israel] that OVERCOMETH, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give POWER over the nations [of Israel]: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received [authority to rule Israel] of my Father" (Revelation 2:26, 27. See also Revelation 5:10; Isaiah 30:19-21; Psalm 149:4-9).

In the soon-corning Millennial age (the World Tomorrow) the nations will at last learn YEHOVAH's government! They will then learn that YEHOVAH God Almighty rules the whole universe through His "holy," "perfect" and "royal law of liberty" (Psalm 19:7-9; Proverbs 6:23; Romans 6:12,14; James 1:25, 2:8), The Ten Commandments comprise the heart and core of YEHOVAH's royal law!

Result of YEHOVAH God's Government? -- Utopia!

It is only when mankind has learned to voluntarily submit to the wise government (or rule) of the Supreme Creator-Ruler of the universe, that man will at last be blessed with real peace, happiness, health, joy and overflowing goodness and abundance -- beyond description! Also, this is the only way by which mankind can ever receive eternal life.

In the very near future, the righteous, all-wise, all-powerful government of YEHOVAH God will be established on this earth. YEHOVAH God will rule all nations with a rod of iron (Revelation 19:15). Then the whole earth will be at peace and will bask in indescribable prosperity (see Isaiah 2, 9, 11; Zechariah 14).

"And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house (YEHOVAH's Kingdom) shall be established in the top of the mountains (kingdoms), and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of HIS WAYS, and we will walk in HIS PATHS: for out of Zion shall go forth the LAW, and the WORD OF THE LORD [YEHOVAH God] from Jerusalem. And He [YEHOVAH God] shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more" (Isaiah 2:2-4) .

YEHOVAH God, the Supreme King, will rule over the Kingdom of YEHOVAH God -- over the territory of the whole earth. All the people of the world will be His subjects and the LAW of YEHOVAH God will be His government!

"How lovely on the mountains are the feet of Him who brings good news, Who announces peace and brings good news of happiness, Who announces salvation, and says to Zion, 'Your God Reigns!' YEHOVAH has bared His holy arm in the sight of all the nations, that all the ends of the earth may see the salvation of our God" (Isaiah 52:7, 10).

"The earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea" (Isaiah 11:9).

Here, at last, we see a true, soon-to-be-fulfilled utopian picture of WORLD PEACE -- YEHOVAH God's way! True PEACE, PROSPERITY and HAPPINESS through the perfect, WORLD-RULING GOVERNMENT of the SUPREME, CREATOR-RULER GOD!

When you see the sin and the wretchedness (which the governments of man have produced); and when you compare this with YEHOVAH's perfect government -- which will at last bring about a Utopia -- then you, too, will cry out "Thy KINGDOM come. Thy WILL be done IN EARTH, as it is in heaven"! (Matthew 6:10).
