Revelation: The Coming Kingdom of Christ
Scripture Reading: Revelation 20:1-10 In light of the multiplied and complicated problems of our world, it is clear that what the world needs is a king … someone to rule in divine wisdom and perfect justice and holy compassion.  A king is exactly what God promised to David and through David, in what is usually called the Davidic Covenant. "When your days are fulfilled to walk with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom. . . .  I will confirm him in my house and in my kingdom forever, and his throne shall be established forever" (1 Chr 17:11,14).  This is the earthly kingdom prophesied in the Old Testament and specifically detailed in Revelation 20:1-6.  "And to him [Messiah] was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him" (Dan 7:14).  "They (tribulation martyrs) came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years" (Rev 20:4). The King will come and He will establish His kingdom.  It will be a kingdom of peace (Isa 9:6,7) … justice (Jer 23:5,6) … holy sovereignty (Rev 19:11-21) …  and eternal duration (Dan 7:13,14).   It is the coming of Christ and His promised rule that comforts us in the face of our fears and steels us in the face of our weaknesses.  “The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign forever and ever" (Rev 11:15).  The goal of all creation is the everlasting honor of the triune God.  When we are consumed with God’s glory then, and only then, will we work and pray and groan for Christ to have a name in all the earth.
