God’s Kingdom as Manifested by the Tree of Life

Ever since I received the vision of the Tree of Life, God has been gradually leading us and unfolding revelations to me. Looking back, I realize that God’s intention for me was always to build a Tree of Life church. As my vision is 611, our church is named 611 Bread of Life Church. The Tree of Life church is to manifest God’s Kingdom. However, since the content of this vision is so deep, so broad, and so great, it is rarely discussed in church history or in theology, as if it were a forgotten precious pearl. Presently this vision is still being developed and is far from, and is also impossible to be, perfected.

In fact, the Tree of Life church is to manifest God’s Kingdom! What is God’s Kingdom then? In the book of Genesis, when God first created the heavens and the earth, there was no Satan, and everything was under God’s rule. This is God’s Kingdom. But after the fall of the angels, a part of God’s kingdom fell into darkness. When Jesus comes again, as mentioned in Matthew, He said, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” God’s Son brought God’s kingdom down to earth. God has called us out of the world to be sons of light in darkness who are full of God’s life and believe in, submit to, and are connected with God. Today’s generation is facing the fight between light and darkness as God and Satan are engaged in warfare. As a result, the sons of light are being attacked by darkness. God wants us to live out His Kingdom through the Tree of Life, which is manifested as the new heaven and new earth as mentioned in Revelation 22, where we can see the Tree of Life.

So why are there still so many problems in today’s world? It’s because many people are still having one foot in the light and the other in darkness. They do not understand what the Kingdom of Light is or what the Tree of Life is. Some people have the question of why we keep mentioning the Tree of Life but do not talk about Jesus instead. The Tree of Life is not Jesus Himself, yet comes from and is connected to Him. As mentioned in Revelation, a river of water of life flows from the throne of God and of the Lamb and in the middle of the city’s street and on either side of the river was the Tree of Life. The Tree of Life is provided by the river and is located within the city. The city represents the presence of God. We are the Tree of Life, serving God and bearing His Image. We also represent the Kingdom of Light in the world of darkness. People associate us with God as soon as they see us. The entire new heaven and new earth and the holy city of New Jerusalem are surrounding the Tree of Life. Spiritually speaking, Christ is the head of the Church, which is His Body, a part of Him. From the perspective of Revelation, the river of water of life flows from the throne of Christ to provide for the Tree of Life and they are actually one.

The Tree of Life vision that God has entrusted me with, is God’s Kingdom mentioned in the Lord’s Prayer (different from the one mentioned in the Old Testament), is the new heaven and new earth, and is also all that is covered by “glories” of the “glorious gospel” preached by Paul (1 Timothy 1:11).

In the Old Testament era, the Israelites failed to manifest God’s Kingdom as they were supposed to since they did not desire to become the Tree of Life but loved to be the trees of the nations. Now that we are in Jesus, we will surely succeed in becoming the Tree of Life in His Kingdom. But we must first become new wineskins to be constantly filled with revelations. As I am still receiving this vision, let us continue to follow God in faith!■【2024.06.23】
