The EmancipatorTHE STANDARD IS TO REIGN
For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
— Romans 5:17
The next component of Yahweh's vision for the Church of Jesus Christ on earth is to reign in life. This is the execution of the original dominion mandate of Genesis 1:26-28, that Adam lost. Many know this is true, but their challenge is, where this is to happen? Some will say, "In heaven after death". Others will say, "During the millennium when Jesus comes". These are all religious complications of the human consciousness of the church. The verse above simply says, "... you shall reign in life by Jesus Christ". It never added after death, in heaven or in a coming millennium. It says in life. Are you not living or in life now? When death was reigning, because of Adam, was it waiting to reign in heaven or in the millennium? How come that when it comes to Jesus, you must wait for heaven. The truth is you were made a king to reign on earth (Revelation 5:10), now. This is the vision, those who miss it, will go and come back to meet that reality when they resurrect.
Oh, glory to God. Jesus my Lord has made me a priest, and a king and I choose to reign in this life in Jesus' Name.
