The Royal House of Britain

Kingdom Tidings

We are living in an age when the British Monarchy is being questioned and challenged by many who would like to see it changed into a presidential system. However, little do they realize that, historically and symbolically our monarchy is deeply rooted in the Bible, and owes its very existence to the unconditional covenant God made with David: "Once I have sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David. His seed shall endure forever; and his throne as the sun before me." Please note, that David's throne was an earthly throne over an earthly people; the throne in heaven is the Father's throne.

In the Scottish national Library there is a Gaelic manuscript written in 1467, which contains the complete genealogies of the Scottish Kings right back through the Irish sovereigns by the way of Judah. Furthermore, there is also a genealogical chart prepared by Heralds College (hence the highest authority) showing the lineage of the British Kings from "Brutus" (Zarah-Judah lineage.). In God's great plan of the ages of the Davidic Throne was planted in the Isles, where centuries later "the lost sheep of the house of Israel" (Mat. 15:24) would be regathered, in their "appointed place" (11 Sam. 7:10). Thus grew up the British nation, a nation formed by the union of various tribes of the same stock who ultimately became "a nation and a company (or Commonwealth) of nations" (Gen. 35:11) as foretold in Bible prophecy.

*The chart was formerly held in The Royal Library at Windsor Castle. It is now held in Hatfield House, England, and this is the ancestral home of the Marquis of Salisbury.
