Rev. And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying,
The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ;
and he shall reign for ever and ever.
But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom,
and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.
From what you are expecting, it is never going to happen
but if you are willing to change your mind, then it is happeneing:
So you are saying you do not believe in the mill. reign of Christ on earth?
Why did Jesus, during His earthly ministry, instructed His disciples to pray,
“Thy kingdom come” ? (Matthew 6:10)
Scripture teems with promises of this future event.
Yet most people treat Christ’s return to earth as a myth.
Promises about Christ coming to Earth fill the Old Testament beginning to end,
Genesis to Malachi. God will fulfill all the promises and prophecies of Christ’s
Second Coming. God does not lie. When He speaks, He fulfills His word (Num 23:19).
When He comes a second time, He will kick Satan off of his throne
and assume His rightful position as King of kings and Lord of lords!
Isaiah 2 clearly describes a time that has not yet happened, when, “in the last days …
all nations shall flow” into Jerusalem and asked to be taught God’s law—a time when
“[t]he lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of man shall be bowed
down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day” (verse 11).
Verse 12 describes what it calls the “day of the Lord,” a day of warfare in which God corrects
the nations! References to the “day of the Lord” are found throughout the Old Testament, in
the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Zephaniah, Zechariah and Malachi.
This is a day when people will hide for fear of the great God “and for the glory of his majesty,
when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth” (verse 19).
One of the most spectacular prophecies of Christ’s Second Coming and rule is Isaiah 9:6-7:
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given,” it says—a clear reference to His birth as
a human being. But it continues: “and the government shall be [future tense] upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon
the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and
with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”
Prophecy shows that these very real, literal kingdoms will be destroyed and supplanted by another
real, literal kingdom: “And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom,
which shall never be destroyed …” (verse 45).
Christ’s Kingdom is a real kingdom—and it is about to be established on earth!
“And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and
languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away,
and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.”
Throughout His ministry, Christ Himself repeatedly made plain that a time would come when
He would appear not as a mere man, but as a glorified, powerful spirit being—not to die as
a sacrificial lamb, but to rule as a King!
“[T]he Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall
reward every man according to his works,” He said (Matthew 16:27).
“And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the
regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon
twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel” (Matthew 19:28).
He was describing regeneration for the whole world and a future government
of which men [saints]will be resurrected to positions of kingship!
“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again,
and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:2-3).
Jesus promised the disciples He would return to earth in all His glory!
The Olivet prophecy, Christ put His Second Coming into a time frame: He gave
specific signs that would occur just beforehand (Matthew 24; Mark 13; Luke 21).
Christ described His actual return this way: “For as the lightning cometh out of the east,
and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. …
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of
the earth … see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory”
(Matthew 24:27, 30).
His whole ministry was devoted to announcing and proclaiming
the future Kingdom He will establish on earth!
