(Isaiah 2:2, 3, 4) 

And it must occur in the final part of the days that the mountain of the house of  YHWH will become firmly established above the top of the mountains, and it will certainly be lifted up above the hills, and to it all the nations must stream.

See what God's Mountain is:  
 Genuine-mountain

(Rev.5:9,10; Rev.20:6;  1 Peter.2:9; Rev.1:6)
       Some think that pointing out the special role that the anointed play in the outworking of  …the True God's  purposes…  implies that the rest of us are of little account in the big picture.

On the contrary…aside from the True God’s purpose to restore creation being accomplished, we are the very ones who will ultimately benefit from his merciful plan.  (Genesis 28:13-14) 

He has appointed them to carry out a duty.   
( Rev. 21:2 ) (Revelation 21:1-5)
 Who ever accepts them accepts him who has sent them. 

(John 13:20)

The story of the marriage feast can be considered here. Christ has his bride (the anointed) They are special servants at this feast who serve others.  Once again...we are not the bride. As for us we all are invited to the marriage feast...both good and bad people. We can appreciate what we are being served and be thankful that God has assigned them to this duty to serve us this spiritual food, just as we might appreciate our mother for all the hard work she does to feed us.  
 (Matt. 22:9  “Go then to where the roads exit the city and invite everyone you find to the banquet.’
 Matt 22:10 “So those servants went out on the roads and gathered everyone they found, both evil and good. The wedding banquet was filled with guests.)
Now just as the anointed bride invites people to come to the marriage feast, we also can do the same. ( Revelation 22:17 )  However we must acknowledge that it is God who provides all of it through Christ and his bride.  
We may not understand why God does what he does. 

       Parents do things for the sake of their children, even though the children may not fully understand.

(Isaiah 55:7, 8, 9)

Later when we are all grown up, we tend to understand better.

The apostle John says that it was because of God’s love ...   that he gave his only begotten son. (John 3:16; John 1:11-12; Matt 15:24; Rom 11:28) 

In Genesis, God told man “Become fruitful and fill the earth”. This was his original purpose.    

If things went as planned;

Jesus would not have had to die for us.

There would have been no need for the anointed to serve as priests and kings, in a governmental arrangement.

Yes, that’s right, no need for the kingdom government, (Administration), composed of Jesus and his brothers, to bring all things together again in the Christ.

(Ephesians 1:8, 9, 10, 11) (Romans 8:19)


This kingdom administration with his son Jesus as the head is how the True God decided (Isaiah 55:7, 8, 9) to make all things new.
(Revelation 21:5)

{See other translations that use “Administration”…and some bible scholar’s notes:} 

The New American Standard Bible: (1995) …with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth. 

Aramaic Bible in Plain English (2010) …for the administration of the end of time, that all things which are in Heaven and in Earth would be made new again by The Messiah.

Darby Bible Translation …for the administration of the fullness of times; to head up all things in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth; 

Weymouth New Testament …for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it--the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in Heaven and things on earth, to find their one Head in Him.

World English Bible…to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him;

Barnes’ notes on the Bible:   That in the dispensation - The word rendered here as "dispensation," οἰκονομία oikonomia, means properly "the management of household affairs." Then it means stewardship or administration; a dispensation or arrangement of things: a scheme or plan.

Wesley’s notes:  

             That in the dispensation of the fullness of the times - In this last administration of God's fullest grace, which took place when the time appointed was fully come. He might gather together into one in Christ - Might recapitulate, re - unite, and place in order again under Christ, their common Head. All things which are in heaven, and on earth - All angels and men, whether living or dead, in the Lord.

Eventually though, Jesus will hand all things back over to his God and Father, and then the Heavenly Father will be all things to everyone.
(1 Corinthians 15:24,27,28)

But what is this administration all about?  Why does anyone have to be anointed to “rule” as Kings with Jesus?

Here is a link that is now available today (Years after my article was written) It explains this very well:

https://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2020/05/what-is-divine-purpose-for-anointed.html


Logically though, what is a kingdom?

It is basically a government…in this case God’s government.

In fact, as Christians we pray for God’s Kingdom to come…  "Our Father, who art in Heaven, let your Kingdom come".  (Matthew 6:9,10)

 In many countries today there are governments with “elected” leaders.  In the United States, a country of some 300 million people, there is only one president. There are only 100 senators.

Not everyone is a member of the actual government, just as in England, not everyone is a member of parliament.

In this world, imperfect   men and women are elected by imperfect people.  

The Almighty Father in Heaven and his son Jesus are the ones who provide members of their administration. The Father and Jesus can read hearts, men cannot.

Now in many countries we call our elected officials “public servants”.   However, they often reveal that they have their own interests at heart, rather than those that they are supposed to be serving.

The difference between God’s faithful administrators and the ones that the nations have is quite the opposite.

Jesus said “you know the rulers of the nations lord it over others, but this is not to be the way among you”.

(Matthew 20:25, 26, 27, 28) Also see (Acts 20:35)

 They are to imitate Jesus who took a slaves form. (Philippians 2:5, 6,7)

They will minister  to the sheep, - not be ministered to.

How will this be done?

See article Jacob's Ladder…

(Minister comes from Latin meaning minus and the Greek word means servant).

All Christians will be persecuted, but those chosen ones will undergo a more intense persecution.

As for how severe their persecution will be… Jesus said:   
(Mark 10:38, 39) 
The (New world Translation) reads this way: 

"You do not know what you are asking for … the cup I am drinking... you will drink, ... and with the baptism with which I am being baptized ...You Will ... be baptized ."

So it will not be easy for them. Satan has demanded to have them as wheat to sift.  (Luke 22:31)

Also it is not easy to write down everything that the Holy Spirit is giving them with all the many scriptures.

Always critical of themselves that they are not found lacking by  God, they also have to deal with some who are critical of them.
(2 Corinthians 11:5,6)

The apostles were men unlettered and ordinary.  They were not teachers of the law, they did not attend the rabbinical schools of their day.   (Acts 4:13) They have the same imperfections that we have. (Acts 14:14, 15) (Acts 15:39)

God did not pick the wise intellectuals. He did not pick the professors of theology.  God decided the use the things looked down upon, things weak, and ignoble, to put those wise men to shame.    
(1 Corinthians 1:26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)

Almighty God will not do a single thing unless first he has revealed it to his prophets. (Amos 3:7)

 Still, we should not hang on every word they say or write, but we should take the time to test out every inspired expression.(1 John 4:1)

We should be looking up the scriptures. 

Keep asking and keep praying. Be like the ancient Beroeans (Acts 17:11).

God is the one providing the spiritual food. They are only the ones serving it.

But how will I know who really are the ones being faithful and discreet?

 It is Jesus who will  designate who is faithful and discreet, however Jesus did tell us how we could recognize them.

Jesus said by their fruits you will recognize them, both good and bad. (Matthew 7:16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

See article on the fine trees:

The bible says that all creation is waiting for the revealing of the sons of God. (Rom.8:19)

 When the last ones are sealed then there will be no more delay any longer. (Rev.10:6, 7)
God’s kingdom can soon start to administrate things on the earth.

Satan knows that when the last ones of this administration are sealed (Rev.7:3) then its “Game Over” for him.

These Kings are his primary target.

It is Satan’s main game plan to keep them from being finally found “spotless and unblemished” (2 Pet.3:14) and getting sealed.
(Rev.6:10, 11) (Rev.7:3)

The faithful anointed ones are special, and they are specific targets of Satan. He will persecute them, with the goal of breaking their integrity.  He will do everything to weigh them down and make them feel discouraged and oppressed, so that they are weakened in their purpose. 

 Satan put Job through the loss of children, physical afflictions, and personal attacks from so-called "comforters". (See the book of Job)
He will also do this to Jesus faithful  brothers, just as he did to Jesus.

This is his world.  He wants it to continue for as long as possible. He already has the proud, prominent, unfaithful slaves (harlots) in his pocket.    

There are many faithful humble anointed ones out there.

Don’t treat these least of Jesus faithful brothers badly. They have been assigned to minister to us.
 We are special too. 
They are here for us.  Both now and later.

 You never know who it is you are entertaining. (Heb.13:1, 2)   

(Mt.25:34, 35, 36, 37, 40)

Each one will be inspected individually. (Rom.14:12)
