Christ in you the hope of glory

Because of the resurrection, Christ has been raised up and now sits on the "throne of David".
Is this a biblically accurate and true statement? Yes or no

No!
Hebrews 8:1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Revelation 22:3 ". . . the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him." New Jerusalem.

Revelation 22:3 ". . . the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him." New Jerusalem.

I am not saying that Jesus is not in heaven, seated at the right hand of the Father, of course he is.
But read what acts 2 says:

"Therefore being a prophet (David), and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne"
".....raise up Christ to sit on his throne"
If Christ has been raised up (which he has) then he sits on Davids throne.

V31 "He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, thatches soul was not left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption"

David "seeing" (understanding) before that it was Christ that was to sit on his throne, spoke this regarding the resurrection of Christ.

V32 "This Jesus hath God raised up..."(to sit on Davids throne)

V33 "Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted....

Peters apostolic interpretation is clear:

God promised David a seed to sit on his throne.
David understood that seed to be Christ
Christ had been rsised up and has fulfilled the promise, being seated on Davids throne
To sit on Davids throne means to be seated by the right hand of God exalted

King David was a type of our King Jesus
David's temporal earthly throne was a foreshadow of the eternal throne of God.
Davids house was a type of the house of God, which we are
Davids Kingdom was a type of the Kingdom of God

To "sit on Davids throne" means Jesus has now fulfilled in himself all the promises made to the "seed of David". He now reigns in heaven from the throne of God; the place of all rule and authority which the earthly throne of David pointed to.

This will help you.
Wiles: Greek word is "methodeia"
Our English word "method" derives from it.
The "wiles" of the devil are his "methods" and "devices" his "deceit"
Yes, the devil and evil spirits are real, but we do not fight them, we stand against his devices and his methods.
The scripture in the new covenant never teaches the believer to fight the devil, we are told to:

"fight the good fight of faith"(1tim.6:12 2tim 4:7)
"War a good warfare" (concerning prophetic words spoken into our life) (1tim.6:19)

"earnestly contend for the faith" (Jude 1:3)
Wage warfare against our own carnal thoughts (2cor.10:4)

Our fight is not with the devil, Jesus has defeated him. Our fight is, do we believe that he is defeated.....it is the fight of
faith...do we believe the "finished work"

With this light, here is the understanding of Eph.6:12
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against:
Principalities: rudimentary worldly principles, principles which govern the world system
Powers: earthly influences
Rulers of the darkness of this world: the strongholds of false apostles, prophets, and teachers (religion)
Spiritual wickedness in high places: the evil effect of the spirit of (natural) man among and within the church.

These are not the devil, they are his methods, and devices which he employs through human beings. They are his "wiles".

And as is said before...i disagree. Is there anything else you would like to add?? This topic is rather boring...time to move on.

If you will answer this question we can go somewhere with this.

Acts 2:29-33 is revealing that Jesus presently sits on the "throne of David" which is
interpreted as the "right hand of God"
Is this a true statement? Yes or no

Yes.

"Therefore being a prophet (David), and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne"
".....raise up Christ to sit on his throne"
If Christ has been raised up (which he has) then he sits on Davids throne.

My bible states that the book of Acts was written in 60 AD.

Acts 2:29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

To me this says that David is dead and buried. Solomon occupied it for a time but where is His throne after that? I'm not sure of the context of this next scripture in Jeremiah 13:13 but others also are said to have set on David's throne.

Now we must ask if Acts 2:30 is talking of God raising up Jesus to sit with Him in His throne. "Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh (Jesus' genealogy is through David Matt. 1:1), he (God) would raise up Christ to sit on his (God's) throne."

Acts 2:29-33 is revealing that Jesus presently sits on the "throne of David" which is

Yes.

I believe so also.

And therefore Isa.9:6-7 is a present reality.

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder....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....

Jesus is presently ruling and reigning from the "throne of David" in the heavens, and NOW, of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end. His kingdom and kingship are ever increasing in government and peace upon the earth. This kingdom is within us (Luke 17:20-21), we are going from glory to glory, as we release his government and peace in the earth. The geo-political system may look rough, but the Church of the Living God, has a destiny and mandate. We will forever increase his government and peace of the kingdom of heaven in the earth....for the Lord has said "as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of God.....it is Christ in his Church, the expectation of this glory.

Jesus is at the right hand of the Father in the 3rd heaven. But what you don't seem to comprehend even as you hide your eyes to reality is that Satan and his fallen angels and demons have been given so much power for the time being. I have shown you scripture to support it...you choose to ignore it. I have told you to look at the current geo-political system of the world today.... Delete comment We who live in the US and Canada as you do can sometimes fall complacent and get soft because we haven't had or seen much persecution.....yet.

Why would God promise David that Christ would sit upon Gods throne?
The promise was to David assuring him that his (Davids) throne, seed, house, and kingdom would be an everlasting dynasty, fulfilled and inaugurated through the finished work if Christ.

David's throne is an earthly throne, God's throne is in heaven, David was buried and with them unto that day (Acts 2:29), Jesus would not suffer corruption and be taken to sit in our Father's throne.

Acts 2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
Acts 2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

When we come to figures, types, and symbols, many earthly things show heavenly types. E.g., Melchizedek is a type of Christ, Aaron a type of Christ, Rebekah a type of the bride, Adam the earthly, Jesus the heavenly, and a dove figuring the Holy Spirit.

We read in Colossians 2:17 concerning different things such as the Sabbath: Which are a shadow (Or type) of things to come, and Hebrews 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. David's throne; an earthly throne was a type of God's heavenly throne, and it was not even the throne Jesus will receive.

Blessings in Christ Jesus.

Dear Hope of glory, I'll just say that Revelation Chapters Two and Three reflect judgment of the church.

Revelation 3:21 (a) shows a future with Christ when He receives His own throne.

Revelation 3:21 (b) reflects the present throne He is seated in; His Father's throne. Jesus receives His throne after judgment of the church in Revelation 4:2 ". . a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.

Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

Revelation 4:2 "a throne was set in heaven, and one (Who) sat on the throne. Please note that these things occur in the context of Revelation 4:1, "I will shew thee things which must be hereafter." Hereafter what? After those things already shown and told John prior to this.

Revelation 4:11 "thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created."

Colossians 1:16 For by him (Jesus) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

According to the above scriptures, is Jesus in His Father's throne, or on His own throne?

Acts 2:31 was quoted in my post and I thought it was self explanatory. It "Spake of the resurrection of Christ." Was there something you wanted to bring forth about it?

 

[Hope of glory]

Sorry it was acts 2:30 you omitted not 31.

Rev.3:21 is not future
Luke 1:32 is fulfilled in Christ's resurrection (acts2:30-31)
Rev3:21 says those who "overcome" sit with him on his throne
Those of faith have already "overcome" (1john 5:4-5). We already are seated with him in his throne (Eph.2:6)
According to the above Jesus sits on the throne of his father David which is rightfully his own throne which is also his Fathers throne.
Concerning Gods "throne"
Isa.66:1, acts 7:49 "The heaven is my throne"
Math.5:34 "Swear not at all, neither by heaven, for it is Gods throne"

According to the above scriptures is the "throne of God" a literal throne?
Does "the throne" speak of a place of power and authority as King?
Does "throne" in Revelation reveal spiritual truth through a physical object?
Is God "one"? Do the Father and the Son as "one" have separate thrones?
Will all believers "literally" "squeeze in" with Jesus on his (one) throne? (must be a big chair)

Rather than Rev.3:21 speaking of literal thrones, could it be saying:
Him who overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my place of power and authority, even as I overcame and am seated with my Father in his place of power and authority.
This verse reveals the "oneness" of relationship which exists between Father, Son, and Bride.

 

[Eugene]

Sorry it was acts 2:30 you omitted not 31.

I thought the following reply was sufficient.

I've got a question. Do you think the throne of David is in heaven? I'm reading these verses as a contrast of David and Christ; David is buried, but Jesus didn't face corruption and is seated at the right hand of God in our Father's throne in heaven.

Do you have additional scripture establishing this? I read in 1 Kings 2:12 "Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father." This was an earthly throne.

It appears you want to isolate Acts 2:30 from Acts 2:31 and they need to be applied together. Verse 31 explains what Verse 30 was saying.

Acts 2:30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
Acts 2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

With your explanation that God's throne is heaven and it is, but there is also a literal throne. Would you say that the throne of David is heaven? Do you think "A throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne." in Revelation 4:2 is nothing more than heaven is set in heaven?

Rev.3:21 is not future.
Rev3:21 says those who "overcome" sit with him on his throne.

Yes all in Christ have overcome the world and as such are in Him. I do hope you realize you're not physically there yet. 1 John 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world . .

Ephesians 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
Ephesians 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Ephesians 2:7 That in the ages to come . .
1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face . .

Does the church remain? Does Revelation Chapters Two and Three concern the judgment of the church?

And then I'm not understanding your explanation of Jesus only being in heaven, and on an earthly throne of David.

You said: "It appears you want to isolate Acts 2:30 from Acts 2:31 and they need to be applied together. Verse 31 explains what Verse 30 was saying"

Not at all. Verse 30-33 clearly state that the resurrection of Christ to the right
hand of the Father fulfills the promise that Christ would sit on the "throne of David".

You said: "And then I'm not understanding your explanation of Jesus only being in heaven, and on an earthly throne of David"

Through Jesus' death burial and resurrection he has fulfilled the promises made to David.
(Rom.15:8 "....to confirm the (covenantal) promises made unto the fathers"

The new covenant is the fulfillment of all covenantal promises, that is, all
covenantal promises find their true, spiritual, and eternal fulfillment in the new covenant.

The promises of "a seed" "a house" "a throne" and "a kingdom" given to David (2Sam.7) find their fulfillment in the new covenant and in Jesus Christ and his church!

There will be no "natural or earthly" seed, house, throne, or kingdom of David to come in the future.
Christ and his body (his church) are the spiritual Seed, house, throne, and Kingdom.
The earthly has given way to the heavenly, the natural has given way the the spiritual....through the cross!

Isa.9:6-7 is not "going to happen" it IS HAPPENING!
Isa.2:2-4 is not "going to happen" it IS HAPPENING!

The kingdom of God has come, it is "within us"!
The Church are the "Saviors upon Mt. Zion" (Obed.21, Heb.12:24)

Brother, I reckon this is where we part ways as I in no way believe Christ is sitting on David's throne, but that when God in Acts 2:30 raises Jesus to sit on His throne, it is not David's throne. Thanks for your time.
