1:40
When Adam turned from God to himself, Satan took control of Earth. Jesus died to transfer that authority back to God, not just to get people into heaven. Repentance means becoming a kingdom citizen living under Heaven's rule on Earth right now.

Humanity had forfeited its position as kingdom governors. The moment Adam transferred his allegiance from the King to himself, the territory was under new and illegitimate management. Satan, who is the god of this world system, manipulated and tricked the governor, thereby giving up the authority. Oh, my God. Not the planet, the authority. Not the planet, the authority. The delegated authority given to him by the King of Heaven. Ah, he gave it over to illegitimate management. To redeem it required paying the price of transfer back. The King paid that price with his own life. Not because he was defeated, because he chose it. Number 6, he decided to reestablish kingdom governance on earth. The goal of the cross was not simply to get people into heaven when they die. The goal was to restore the original design: heaven's governing authority operating through kingdom citizens living on the earth. I'm sorry, but Jesus did not come for church members. Jesus came for kingdom citizens. This is why he said, "Repent." For the kingdom. For the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heaven's governing authority operating through kingdom citizens living on the earth. The resurrection was the King reclaiming the territory.
