Whoever has seen me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am united with the Father, and the Father united with me?

YESHUA CAME TO RETRAIN MANKIND FOR KINGDOM LEADERSHIP
The fourth goal of Yeshua’ mission on earth was to retrain mankind for Kingdom leadership. He came to teach us how to think and act like God once again. Yeshua replicated the message that He proclaimed and by the power of the Spirit we are also empowered to model and preach the message of the Kingdom.
Yeshua established the standard by the example of His own life. In every word, action, and moment of His life on earth, Yeshua showed us what the Father is like and what we should be like as His children. Like us, Yeshua’ disciples did not always understand this easily:
Retraining us to think and act like children of the King was perhaps the toughest part of Yeshua’s mission because we tend to be so stubborn, hardheaded, and slow to learn. This is due, in part, to our blindness and spiritual dullness because of our sin and, in part, to the fact that we as a
race of people have been separated from God’s royal and holy environment for so long.
Deuteronomy 28:64-68 64 Adonai will scatter you among all peoples from one end of the earth to the other, and there you will serve other gods, made of wood and stone, which neither you nor your ancestors have known. 65 Among these nations you will not find repose, and there will be no rest for the sole of your foot; rather Adonai will give you there anguish of heart, dimness of eyes and apathy of spirit. 66 Your life will hang in doubt before you; you will be afraid night and day and have no assurance that you will stay alive. 67 In the morning you will say, ‘Oh, how I wish it were evening!’ and in the evening you will say, ‘Oh, how I wish it were morning!’ — because of the fear overwhelming your heart and the sights your eyes will see. 68 Finally, Adonai will bring you back in ships to Egypt, the place of which I said to you, ‘You will never ever see it again’; and there you will try to sell yourselves as slaves to your enemies, but no one will buy you.”
Yeshua came to lead us to rediscover both and to retrain us in how to reclaim and live in them. If we want to know what we should be like as children of the Father, all we have to do is look at Yeshua, who is the only begotten Son of the Father. The Holy Spirit in us enables us to understand what we see in Yeshua and what we hear in His teachings, and gives us the power to carry them over into our lives.
HEALING THE MENTAL DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE GREAT FALL
We have been slaves for so long that we don’t know how to handle freedom. We apologize for getting ahead. We don’t believe we deserve or are entitled to the best. That may have been true while we were sinners lost and separated from God.
As believers, however, we have been restored to our place as God’s children and are entitled to all the blessings and benefits of that station.
The retraining of our minds is part of what it means to give ourselves as living sacrifices to God. We cannot live effectively for the Lord until we learn to think like Him.
Romans 12:1-2
I exhort you, therefore, brothers, in view of God’s mercies, to offer yourselves as a sacrifice, living and set apart for God. This will please him; it is the logical “Temple worship” for you. 2 In other words, do not let yourselves be conformed to the standards of the ‘olam hazeh. Instead, keep letting yourselves be transformed by the renewing of your minds; so that you will know what God wants and will agree that what he wants is good, satisfying and able to succeed.
Renewing our minds means returning to the original mind that we had before the fall, a mind that loves and honors God and that understands its rightful place as a vice-regent of the earthly domain under God’s sovereign Kingdom rule.
YESHUA CAME TO RESTORE KINGDOM RULERSHIP ON EARTH
Lastly, Yeshua’s mission on earth was to restore the Kingdom ruler ship of God on earth through mankind. Once again, His own life was an example of the Kingdom on earth in action.
Whenever Yeshua healed the sick, raised the dead, walked on water, calmed a storm with a word, or fed a multitude with a handful of fish and bread, He demonstrated the truth that God’s Kingdom had come to earth.
Whenever He preached the good news of the Kingdom, or taught His followers about life in that Kingdom, and whenever people responded to Him in faith, He demonstrated the power of the Kingdom to impact human life and environment.
YOUR PLACE IN THE KINGDOM
Each of us who turn to Christ becomes a “stone” in the magnificent spiritual “palace” of the Kingdom of God on earth, called and equipped as kings and priests to represent that Kingdom before the rest of the world.
Throughout human history, the religious society has generally separated priest and king into separate offices and functions, but God did not design them that way in the beginning. We were to be priest/kings in the earth: as priests, representing God’s nature and character, and as kings, His Kingdom government.
Through Christ we are a “holy priesthood,” a “chosen people,” a “royal priesthood,” and a “holy nation.” As such, we have been restored to our priestly function of representing and reflecting God’s nature and character before the world. We are also the “people of God,” not a nation of subjects, but of sons and daughters.
If God is a King, then we, His people, are also of the royal line. Therefore, we have also been restored to our kingly function of representing the government of God on the earth.
God is not interested in having subjects in His Kingdom. He wants only children, royal heirs to the treasures of His domain. Our mission as ambassadors of the Kingdom of God is to bring those who are enslaved in the kingdom of darkness to Christ, the door, so that He can set them free to enter into their full citizenship in God’s Kingdom of light.
