This is astounding when we take verse 9 and meditate on each word: for this study Let's look at first how EVIL it is for those who believe Revelation is only for Israel, that Peter (and the apostles) died under the law were jews apart from the church when here John proclaims by the Holy Spirit that we Saints, the Bride, the Body of Christ are ALL UNITED IN SUFFERING, IN THE KINGDOM (spiritually and eventually physical see my studies on inherit the kingdom and why Paul spoke of kingdom of God so frequently) and PATIENCE OF JESUS CHRIST.

I Love using Daniel 7:13 to Debunk Trinitarians (thethirdheaventraveler.com)

Matthew 7:21

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”

King James Version (KJV)

Harmonize with Daniel Chapter 4

King Nebuchadnezzar - The Mighty Tree where all the foul dwelt.

4 Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; Peace be multiplied unto you.

2 I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me.

3 How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation.

Compare with Matthew 13 Parable The Mustard Seed

31

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:

32

Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

And ALL THE KINGDOM PARABLES of Matthew 13  8 total.  4 given to the public - 4 privately to the disciples.  See notes below:

KINGDOM is the literally millennial Kingdom of God also known as the Kingdom of Heaven, example: Revelation 21:10 clearly shows us the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God are synonymous.

Revelation 21:10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,

 - However we must look at the context because:

Although they are used frequently in scripture as synonymous we find where in some instances Kingdom of Heaven refers to the Literal physical kingdom of the Millennial Kingdom whereas Kingdom of God is the ever present Spiritual Kingdom.   

However, we see in Luke 17:21 they are not. 

Luke 17:21

“Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.”

King James Version (KJV)

MANIFEST (adj.) late 14c., "clearly revealed to the eye or the understanding, open to view or comprehension," from Old French manifest "evident, palpable," (12c.), or directly from Latin manifestus "plainly apprehensible, clear, apparent, evident;" "proved by direct evidence;" of offenders, " probably from manus "hand" (from PIE root *man-

Luke 17:21  The King James Bible means what it says:  THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU (INSIDE).  Perverted Bible translations say the Kingdom of God is in your midst.

The Coming Kingdom by Dr. Woods.

Reproving Dr. Andrew Woods - a case study in how modern day Bible Scholars pour Leaven into the Manna (thethirdheaventraveler.com)

Romans 9:8 KJB 

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

AMONG OR IN THE MIDST OF THEM...This is precisely the major contention I had with Dr. Woods.  He maintained that the NASB was a better translation because it uses the word AMONG in the MIDST OF THEM - whereas the KING JAMES uses the word WITHIN them. I will quote precisely what I quoted to Dr. Woods in the Link I sent you. Let me make a short paraphrase here: The Word WITHIN is not within and or among. The etymology of the word WITHIN literally means: AGAINST THE INSIDE of which literally means AMONG THE INSIDE OF in other words mixed inside of THE PERSON'S SOUL-MIND. KNOWLEDGE.

See the Dr. Woods study where I go into great detail of the functions and faculties of the SPIRIT SOUL AND BODY.  How even an unregenerate (lost soul) still possesses a spirit albeit unregenerated. But the unregenerated spirit still has the full faculty of CONSCIENCE (RIGHT/WRONG) and INTUITION (a 6th sense sensing the spiritual things of this world.  Sadly a lost soul does not have the 3rd faculty of the spirit which is COMMUNION - communication with the Holy Spirit. The lost soul only has communion with the forces of darkness and highly evolved lost souls can communicate with high ranking demonic entities - witches, sorcerers. etc. So how could the Pharisees know there's a Kingdom of God that RULES the WORLD UNIVERSE and will REIGN.  The answer PROOF IS FOUND IN ROMANS 1:18 KJV:  

Romans 1:18

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;”

King James Version (KJV)

Romans 1:19

“Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.”

King James Version (KJV)

Romans 1:20

“For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:”

King James Version (KJV)

within (adv., prep.)

Old English wiðinnan "within, from within," literally "against the inside," see with + in.

within | Etymology of within by etymonline

When we research the word "against" We find it means in context AMIDST THE INSIDE of them. MIXED INSIDE OF THEM.  

 AGAINST THE INSIDE of which literally means AMONG THE INSIDE OF in other words mixed inside of THE PERSON'S SOUL-MIND.

The Oxford Hardcopy Dictionary page 3802 states:

1. Within Preposition: IN the INNER PART.  The inside OF.  INTO the Interior of.  3. Among with IN the possession; INTO THE MIDST OF WITHIN ONESELF * 5. In the INNER BEING SOUL to mind - thought.  This is HUGE because when we go into scripture and when we go through the 3 steps in sound Hermeneutics* *we find this is precisely what Jesus is talking about with the Pharisees.  Jesus says to the Pharisees: " Hey the KINGDOM of God (SPIRITUAL KINGDOM) IS IN YOUR INNER BEING YOUR CONSCIENCE.*** Romans 1:18-20 proves it.  Look at  Luke 24:32: 

King James Version

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?  (heart in this context refers to SOUL responding to the SPIRIT's CONSCIENCE)  What is amazing is Luke 24:32 is listed in the OXFORD English Hardcopy dictionary on PAGE 3802 for the definition of WITHIN. 

 

* in the midst of ONESELF means to be inside your body which means the same as in the midst of you (inside you). IT DOES NOT MEAN AMONGST. 

** In my detailed study on how to study the Bible please see the simple formula of hermeneutics is :  CONTEXT, EXEGESIS (grammar, syntax, vocabulary) and HARMONIZE SCRIPTURE WITH SCRIPTURE.

 ***  Please see the detail and background on the Kingdom of Heaven and The Kingdom of God, which as you'll see in my Blog about Reproving Dr. Woods, the context here is Kingdom of God refers to the SPIRITUAL KINGDOM not the PHYSICAL KINGDOM which will happen in the Millenial Reign. 

https://www.thethirdheaventraveler.com/2018/10/reproving-dr-andrew-woods-case-study-in.html

HERMENEUTICS:

 CONTEXT:   LUKE 17:20,21: Jesus has just been asked by the Pharisees WHEN will the Kingdom of God COME - referring to the PHYSICAL KINGDOM but using the language of the SPIRITUAL (Kingdom of God is mostly spiritual throughout the New Testament whereas Kingdom of Heaven is the coming Physical Kingdom.  There are exceptions in context. See the study to Dr. Woods.).  JESUS RESPONDS THAT THE SPIRITUAL KINGDOM IS INSIDE OF THEIR SOUL - KNOWLEDGE - MIND.  Romans 1:18-20 are very clear this is the case.

EXEGESIS:   We know in Context the word WITHIN used as a PREPOSITION (see how the preposition works and its function in the how to study the Bible) in the 3rd PERSON PRESENT INDICATIVE (see the significance of the the VERB BE in this tense used with the preposition WITHIN to means INSIDE OF THE PERSON's SOUL - MIND as revealed from the Spirit's CONSCIENCE and INTUITION.  Since they are of their father the Devil and the TRUTH - JESUS CHRIST - is NOT IN THEM meaning their SPIRIT is DEAD UNREGENERATED. They will not respond to SALVATION to ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM -  INHERIT ETERNAL LIFE Luke 18 = SALVATION.   INHERIT THE KINGDOM of course one must be SAVED but inheriting the KINGDOM is not the act of soteriology but rather GATHERING OR COMING INTO POSSESSION of what one has been divinely assigned as a portion. ECCL 4:14.   Andy Woods is so outrageously ignorant and believes the sheeple that follow him do not STUDY God's word that he can get by with his absurd notion that IF Jesus meant the Kingdom of God was in their midst referring to himself in the Physical and Spiritual that would mean the entire meaning of the word KINGDOM (realm) means that Jesus is NOT the King but rather the REALM or DOMAIN of what he RULES.  

HARMONIZE SCRIPTURE WITH SCRIPTURE:

Here we go:   Luke 17:21 WITHIN Strongs G1787 harmonizes perfectly with Matthew 23:36 WITHIN G1787  The ONLY 2 uses of WITHIN in the N.T.

IF you read Luke 17:21 in CONTEXT with the true meaning of WITHIN and NOT among or in in the midst OF it matches perfectly with Matthew 23:36 WITHIN.  Let's compare:

 Mat 23:26

Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that

 which is within G1787 the

 cup and platter,

 that the outside of them may be clean also.

 Luk 17:21

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the

 kingdom of God is within G1787 yo

Question? Why didn't the King James translators use WITHIN and NOT AMONG? Because the Pharisees had to clean inside first before the outside is clean and they have the knowledge of the KINGDOM but they don't recognize it but are looking for something on the OUTSIDE that needs to get resolved inside FIRST.

Now continuing in Harmonizing Scripture with Scripture LET'S look at the word IN THE MIDST OF  

Luke 4:30chapter context similar meaning copy save

But he passing through the midst G3319 of them went his way,  

Matthew 18:20chapter context similar meaning copy save

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst G3319 of them.

Now let's examine AMONG THEM

2 Peter 2:8

“(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)”

King James Version (KJV)

Let's look at John 12:35

36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
