To TAT,

You say:

You have proved that Jesus was the King of Israel. Yes, and this is what he told Pilate, “Joh 18:36 Jesus answered, "My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom belonged to this world, my servants would fight to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But for now my kingdom is not from here." If His kingdom was not of this world, then should Christians rule as kings (or as presidents) in this world? Jesus answer seems to reject this thought.

But then, if historically factual, Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey:

Joh 12:15 "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!"
.
Publicly displaying that he's the king of the Jews. His kingdom then would be of this world, and a government figure, by more than implication.

It's interesting that both not of this world, and king of the jews appear in the gospel of john:

Joh 12:15 "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!"

Joh 18:35 Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. What have you done?"
Joh 18:36 Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world."


So we're back to Nee being Biblically wrong. To bad he's not here to admit to it.
