Question
Hi Joe,
I sure did like your answer about Luke 12, it really told it like it was.
Could you please enlighten me with the answer to: "Who are the rulers in the Kingdom?"
Thanks,
Bobby
From Vancouver
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. In regard to your question I am not real sure if you had a specific passage in mind that you want me to explain. But here is my short answer to your question. The kingdom is the church and we have all been made kings and priests when we became Christians.
Rev 5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
If you truly want someone who can be more thorough with you on this topic I recommend you ask the expert Ernie Lawrence because one of his specialties is the books of prophecy including Revelation and the second coming.
In Christian Love, Joe Norman

Expertise
I can answer questions regarding acceptable worship, organization of the church, or any apsect of the Christian life. I am the son of a preacher and have studied the Bible from cover to cover since I was 12 years old. I am strong in my research skills and do not follow teachings of men. Many will label me as conservative and some might label me as liberal, but I just seek to be biblical. I understand proper exegesis and hermeneutics and apply them. My desire is to share my knowledge of God's Word with others. Please always keep in mind that none of us who are listed as experts here are divinely inspired and therefore it is possible to get incorrect answers from any one of us. Study the Scriptures and decide for yourself if what is taught is true.
Experience
I am the 4th generation in my family to be a faithful member of the church of Christ. I was raised by a preacher and have studied the Bible everyday since I was twelve. I am 45 yrs old now. I am not a "scholar", but I am very familiar with the scriptures.
Organizations
member of the church of Christ, served as a Deacon for a few years at LakeShore church of Christ in Waco, Tx. I currently live in the North Dallas area and am still very active within the church of Christ teaching, leading Bible Studies, and songleading as well. I am also actively involved in online ministry. I hope to open my own webpage eventually.
