- What if the message of Jesus was never about Religion? What if Jesus never had intentions of bringing religion, but rather..The Kingdom of God? We explore this and more as we discuss the primary message of Jesus: The Kingdom of God.

I just wanted to let my fellow believers know that the morning of that video that Jarron posted 2 weeks ago about being an Ambassador of Christ and not getting drunk... I prayed to The Most High and made a vow to not drink anymore. The desire to drink has been taken completely away from me!! Amazing things have been happening since then, God has been speaking to me through my dreams. I am so thankful for this channel and all my brothers and sisters in Christ. Love you all!
Wow amen and thank you for sharing! God isn’t finished with you! He is still leading.
I don't know you personally, but I am so proud of you, we all have strengths and weaknesses, and only with His help and love we are able to overcome our weaknesses!!! Thank you for sharing this!
Wow, I just had a dream last night where God was warning me not to get drunk anymore!
AoC Network AMEN!!! Yes HE is!!
Lúcia Kitten very much appreciated. Thank you! 💕
A Kingdom is not the same as “religion” 🎯 that makes God’s Kingdom soooo much bigger than the confines of religion ♥️
Hadasa Beatrice amen!
Yes yes yes amen, that's all I can say so excited 😁 about this teaching.
Amen sister
I love u JBU....
@Hadasa Beatrice Ameeenn!!
So true! Christ did not come to start a religion, he came to have a personal relationship with us! We are not called to be like other Christians, we are called to be like Christ.
There are many in the church that persecute people for trying to live exactly as Jesus (Yehusha) did. So many friends make fun of my family and I for trying to eat clean, keep the Sabbath, keep the commandments, wear clothes that dont change our frequency etc. We are made fun of and even people we thought we knew dont want to fellowship with us.
True
@T Meek Amen
@@danielflowers1985 its OK don't worry about them, you have the best and greatest father than anyone can have, I love my father Almighty yahwah. I speak to him like he is sat next to me in my car, I may look mad but guess what I don't care. God bless you
@@danielflowers1985 Remember the road is narrow for the ones that are on the right path. May God Bless you and your family for living the good life with Yesuah .
i truly LOVE JESUS CHRIST he is everything ive Got!
He is king david
@@jahz7087 bro no
I can relate!
He is all you have, but he is also all you will ever need.
@@joshsmall4444 WOE! TRU
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Amen!
Amen!
A'mein and A'mein!
IN JESUS'S NAME! 🙏🙌👑
Amen brother 💙💙💙
I am your brother... whenever you want we can chatt💙💙💙😘
As the times get worse & one gets older and wiser, hopefully we all can come to the revelation & truth that Jesus Christ is all that matters. Jesus as King, Lord, Savior. ☺
Lion of Truth
The awesome thing is that you don’t have to be older to come to know that amazing deep truth! I know 20 years olds who GET IT, and I know 60 year old who haven’t gotten it yet.
@@Alonka1213 What I meant by when one gets older meaning as the years go by. I wasn't referencing an exact age but only as time keeps ticking. Thanks 😊
Religion and theology hardens your heart to the movement of God. Religion depowers while God empowers
Yeah. I notice the more you study philosophy and religion, the dumber and more confused you become. Christianity is spirit and evidence based. You cannot become a Christian unless you forcefully choose to believe or Jesus/God appears before you in the flesh (like He did for my mom)
@@blessedevelyn339 It really limitsGod then tells people you are going to hell if you don't believe in my theology . I do believe in one thing though, though there is probably exceptions etc. But most people believe in historical Jesus so they tend to fall away as they get older because they never met him on a personal level and actually experience him
@Daniel Loomis
Amen!!!
May 24, 2020
what are you talking about? Religion and theology help you appreciate God even further...
civilised german religion is a set of rules and laws that remind you, you can't possibly keep up with all of them, when Jesus in your heart he will rewire your desire to please him in all ways, and that's what true Christianity is all about...and the bible is just about Jesus
Christ said he came for many reasons, not to condemn the world, but to save it, he came not for the righteous, but to bring sinners to repentance. He came not to take the world captive, but to free it from the bonds and chains of sin. He came that we might know, that there is indeed a God in heaven who does in fact love us wholeheartedly, and if we seek after him with all of our hearts, all of our minds, and all of our souls, we will find him.
God bless you brethren, always,
And I thank you again A.O.C, for bringing the truth of God to a broken world as always, keep up this wonderful work.
Josh, I love reading your reply. I've read it several times, it is so nicely explained and makes me want to share it.
He came not to free us from the laws or the prophets but to fulfil them.
When I received Christ I did not receive a religion I received a person.
There is a difference.
Jesus is MY LORD
@James Magwenzi
Amen!!! Big difference

I want to work for God but I don't know how and I need a group to work with
It's not a religion it's a relationship ❤️
Amen!
It's also receiving a person.♥️
Thank you, you are right on target.
Spot on! ❤️❤️❤️
If only the leaders in our worldy governments understood this more to really have a relationship with themselves and God and with those in their country instead of acting more of the limited self and flesh than in thr abundance of God as the ultimate authority. Can they humble themselves that much to stop being so power/control/self-absorbed some day?
Its both
James 1:27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
I love what this Network is doing preparing us for the coming of our lord Jesus Christ! Studying and sharing the word in these times is most important! We must get prepare for the coming of our lord Jesus Christ! Amen!
Can you imagine walking with him in the flesh back then. Wow. The knowledge he bestowed on them, his miracles. Hated by the world.
They rejected him with hatred. Yet he still forgives. Oh how I long to see him when I close my eyes. To thank him once more for saving me. Amen.
I know how you feel!!! What a miracle to be transformed by HIS Love....
Amen 🙏
God Bless all my brothers and sisters around the world 🥰
Finally someone says it. Read your Bible, your Bible is the church.🙏🙏🙏
Amen! Amen! Truth be told. This is why I decided to stay away from religions. They're all man made.
Poldariser
Your Bible is not the church. It’s God’s message and instruction for you to live a godly life in this world. If you obey God by doing and following his teachings and commandments in your Bible, then you become part of his church.
@@paeng46 did you mean to address that to Lion3000?
Poldariser
Yes, oh my mistake. I’m so sorry. I didn’t notice it until you reply. It’s for him my comment was addressed. I’m sorry.
Raphael what if we still sin?
I can never get enough of God. I try to figure how I got to this place, the love that's within my heart it's like my hearts on fire for Him everyday all day. Years ago....I couldn't see it, but GOD! I couldn't turn away once His hook was in me. OH AND I LOVE IT! HE'S MY EVERYTHING, WHATEVER HE CAN'T BE INCLUDED IN I WOULDN'T BE A PART OF. It's about relationship, we are His family. ❤️
Thank you for your testimony! I can hear the truth in it and I am filled with light! My favorite scripture is Matthew 5:16...Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven... I also like James 3:17.....and the wisdom from above is first pure, the peaceable, ...
Then Ephesians 6:12. These meals help me find joy, love, peace, patience, kindness, goodness faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
Me to man I learn so much off of aoc network I like superbook to me and my daughter watch superbook it for kids but I'm a grown man and I can't stop watching it. You can download it on playstore for free. You will love it
In love with this episode, I usually preach to my catholic friends to repent and come back to Jesus 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄but they insist that they can't join born agains, they stick to their religion, I THANK GOD WHO SHOWED ME THE WAY
Pray for them that God will also show them the way and that they will not harden their hearts
@@shailacy6913 Amen, may God's will be done
@@gabrielasanchez2028 Thanks Gabriel, but thank God you know the truth and what I am talking about exactly, I do believe that God will eventually turn his sheep back home
Be blessed
This is beautiful❤❤
We're not just a family
We're a royal family❤❤
WaitingForYeshua
Yes. Yes. Yes indeed.
1 Peter 2:9
But he are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people that ye should shew forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvellous light. Praise God Almighty.
Be ye so blessed.
That part
Glory to our Father! The Lord Jesus Christ! Prince of Peace! Everlasting Father!
The ambassador video gave me Holy Spirit goosebumps. ❤️
Same here..when a friend and i start talking about our Abba Father and Yeshuah our king and saviour we always have goosebumps....everytime 😊
This video is heart touching. 😭 The teachings of Christ Jesus awakens my spirit each day because the more I watch this kind of videos, the more I read the bible, I came to realize how it is meant more to believers of Christ.
Praise god..personally..this channel helped me to grow more in god..
Aaron, me too (I think this channel has brought a lot of folks closer to God). Jarren I think is his name is glad to answer questions and advice. These guys do an amazing job.
God bless you and your journey
Me too
Jerren You have the most pleasant speaking voices on TH-cam very nice!
Great work AOC Network. May The Lord keep blessing you. 🙏
It's not religion, it's relationship, faith, it's what brings us closer to the Lord.
No. It is religion. You are aping satanic tv ideas. James 1:27.
It's a kingdom -not a relationship
Kingdom not Relationship. Bless you!
Yes, he's the peace , truth , godliness , medication establisher
Your videos have really helped me continually grow in my faith, thank you Jerren
This video is so good. What a great way to bring out the truth of what Jesus really said. Sometimes we can get lost in the noise of what others are saying about Him. That’s why it’s imperative to study the Bible for yourself.
He is about his Kingdom! THAT IS ALL! Also the deceased minister Myles Monroe preached about the kingdom a lot in his time on Earth.
thank you for this wonderful message..
Glory be to God.
shalom!
Amen Amen ...
A very powerful message
It's about his kingdom an about relationships with God..
Thank you Bro Jarron for being obedience for God words..
Prepare us .. Because we are in the last days... Glory to God....
This is what Pastor Myles Munroe said it all along
True, I said the exact same thing
True
Thats who I learned from
His blood upon us as we're his children to every situation stay blessed
Come to think about I always thought the bible wasn't a religion but a way of life. But now I see its not just a way of life but a way for us to govern our selves in this life and to teach others how to govern their lives as well. But I did have some blindness in me but I couldn't figure it out until now. Now I somehow got lost thinking it was a religion but no wonder for thats how many many people see it and are taught that it is.
I never thought to call it a form of government until now!!!! Thank you for opening my eyes to call it what it really is and helping me remember it's not a religion at all but a form of government.
Thy Kingdom come and thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
I LOVE this! That's been my motto for the last 25 years! "It's NOT about a religion, but a RELATIONSHIP with Jesus Christ!" #Godisgood #kingdomliving #childoftheKING #saltandlight
👑✝️💜🙏💙☝️🧂🕯
Thank you for this video. May the Almighty Yah bless you.
Please make more videos! They are so great!! God bless you!
Thank you; I haven't though about that difference / clarification before. What a difference and lesson for this old soul. Blessings to all who await the Kingdom.
Yes! Loved Woodlawn and you all who are my family in Christ! Thank you AoC
You are a gift the way you explain things. Thank you for your work. God bless you.
Not sure if you've heard about it but theres a series about Jesus thats relatively new; its called the Chosen. Its really good!
Thank you brother, I can not wait until next video
Awesome video, I really needed this message today. Thank you for sharing, God bless you!
Thank you so much and God bless you for allowing Him to use you.
This is so refreshing, so liberating, I'm tired of the legalistic church rituals. This is why I followed Jesus only. I love Him so much. He brought me freedom and I'm sold to Him. He has sealed me and I wait for His Kingdom to comes.
Amen!
Thanks bro for your wonderful teaching we all so must be born again before we can be enter the kingdom of God thank you God bless you amen 🙏
Amen Glory to God. I love being apart of this royal family I know it’s not easy and we are subject to more attacks but we have the most High God with us. Jesus is coming soon for his church ❤️🕊🕊❤️
Matthew 13:31-32 New International Version (NIV)
The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast
31 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. 32 Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”
Thank you for creating this channel. I've been searching for answers to so much questions and this channel solved it. Thank you for waking us up . Let the work of God be done.
I truly love to hear the passion in your voice you truly love your king.
All glory to God God bless you brother Harden keep preaching the Gospel keep exposing and keep telling the truth All glory to Jesus!
Very brave of you to release this video, I totally agree with it's message. Thank you so much.
This is a fantastic revelation. Some religious leaders can be so unwelcoming, always sowing discords among the people, and grabbing what they can get. Narrow minded and confusing. Jesus was never apart of their religious status quo. He was opened to all race and creed, rich and poor. That's why He is a King, my King, and your King. I bow before your throne King Jesus. I am your ambassador.Thanks for this video.
Such a great video!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you! Loved it!!
Another blessful message, i can literally say i am #Citizen of God's kingdom, and an #Ambassador for Jesus Christ.💗💗💗
Sis.Julia📖🕊 March 4, 2020
God's people are marching on! Well done AoC network! I am a big follower of this channel. I support you guys in prayers.
Amen brother! God bless you!
Brother I have such a calm every time listen to your amazing words of our Lord..
❤️❤️❤️❤️might God bless you 3 thousand times
This teaching is awesome! I have never been disappointed watching these videos. I have also highly recommended them to my adult children. Thank you for your obedience to Christ!
Peace be to you my brother, I am so thankful for all of your videos. They have truly helped me so much . I just found your channel a few days ago and have been binge watching all of the videos. I will also start sharing them . I’ve shared with my saved sister but I need to share on Facebook. I suspect I will lose a lot of “friends”. But that’s ok. As long as the seed is planted. Oh I have a suggestion, could you make a video about putting on the Full Armor of Gods. So many new believers have trouble understanding what that actually means. Just a suggestion. Thank you and God bless you and yours.
Amen sister and thank you for the suggestion! It is great to hear how you value the work! You are a blessing.
🙏🙏Thank you for all your explanation with your knowledge 🙏🙏
I love AoC Cinematic Universe
Religion is full of tradition and man made laws. And there is no chance to draw closer to him. JESUS IS MORE THAN A RELIGION!!!
The King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
Your videos are very well thought and the messages are well delivered as if you are just talking to us directly. It was narrated naturally. Thanks Jerren for this.You have inspired me to send these meaningful messages throughout the world. Have translated some of your videos into our Filipino Language to reach all Pilipinos World Wide and inspire them to live for Christ. Thanks for this opportunity. May the Lord bless you always.
Its not religion its a relationship.....🕇.....let Jesus give you rest and freedom from fear and uncertainty.....REST IN THE ARMS OF JESUS
As i seek God daily may he help me to differentiate this crossroad of religion and the true narrow path to the Kingdom
Amen and thank you. NZ Wellington Porirua thankful AoC Network
As ALWAYS my Brother, a excellent video OF KINGDOM OF ALMIGHTY GOD. HIS KINGDOM, not a religion. Amein.
In exodus, when Moses went into the mountains to talk to god and was taking a while, the Israelites created a golden calf to worship and follow and etc. The same thing happened to CHRIST!!! May god bless us all 🙏🏽
I follow your videos and e everything you post is exactly what i need in my life and a sign to me because of what i go through abd god answers me through your videos. Its very impacting. Keep up the good holy messeges my brother. God bless you 🙏
God bless you as well! Thanks for being a part of the work and sharing this!
Thank you Jarren! God bless you! Christ is a relationship not a religion
What I like about this channel is your calming voice and your warm heart calling from deep down the core for people into salvation. Exactly how Jesus acted when He was ministering on earth.
I love your spirit and your enlightened mind..
God bless you brother +++
I thank My Lord Jesus for this channel. God is using this channel to touch life. The word of God simplified and touching souls

Amen! And God bless you as well!
Recently I’ve been working on regaining my faith, and with this video it’ll help me to understand the bible more better and understand Jesus Christ more better. I think the Holy Spirit is helping me. Just hope I’m being honest with myself.
Dr.Myles Monroe, preached this message a few years ago. But I didn't understand how to obtain the kingdom keys! Now I get it! Powerful
The same thing
God's gr8
I Love your videos!!!!!! God Bless you richly

Thank you so much for posting..I'm learning alot and can see the way u explain it..it's so awesome!🔥🔥🔥
I love this so much 😩❤️ Thank you Jesus for everything
God bless you
I truly lov this explanation NOW I know what to say to some of my family and friends. Finally. Thank u for all u do u have helped me soooooo MUCH
Jesus had nothing to do with establishing a "church," or creating the "rules" and "dogmas" of any church.
That was created by people who do not side with Jesus, who misunderstood Jesus and had an agenda of their own; including an agenda of power, or that of promoting certain beliefs that they held; for whatever reason.
Again! It was not Jesus' intention to create a "religion," a "church" or even a "movement"; that happened because people misunderstood Jesus.
If people did understood Jesus; they would have lived simple lives in peace, Love and harmony with all.
I only found this video today, yesterday when i was waking up, I heard a voice a voice saying " those who believe that the kingdom of heaven is within them, will be saved, those who do not will not. For some time i have seeking an answer to this but there are a lot of view points. I could not find one that could compare to the voice as I woke up, it's simple and to the point and I think it is easy to understand. I thought that this falls in line with your video and I Thought you might like to know.
#JesusISTheTruth this channel is by far the best channel on the planet💯 God bless you Jerren, in my mind u are at minimum an ambassador, but really, some what of a prophet of us ambassadors. You're words and videos are just... idek. Coming from God I guess. #JesusISTheTruth #JesusISKing #spreadLove #spreadTruth
Need to take CARE of "ALL" GODS CREATURES!!! ALL LIFE!
