One day in the not-too-distant future Christ will rule and reign in a theocracy on this earth. A theocracy is a form of government with divine guidance. This future dispensation is known as the millennial reign of Christ, encompassing a one-thousand-year duration, where King David will once again, sit on the throne of Jerusalem, as governor. Throughout history, man has striven for a ‘Golden Age,’ ‘Third Reich,’ or ‘Global Government’ which ousts Christ altogether. Join Carl now as he shares what God thinks of man’s futile attempt to overthrow His inevitable ruler-ship…
Here is a complete transcript of the broadcast (below)…
Friend, I want to welcome you to the psalm series, and we shall begin now with Psalm two. A unique psalm, one which no one really knows the author of the psalm, although the early church fathers believed it to be David. And the term anointed one is the English word for Messiah, and you’re going to hear it in this psalm. But really, it’s a messianic psalm. It talks of the futility of the nations, particularly the genteel nations, in resisting the Messiah’s return at the second coming or second advent. And friend, once this advent comes, we, the saints, will rule and reign with Christ in what is known as the millennial reign of Christ. This is the kingdom of heaven on earth, which Christ spoke about. And of course, there’s a delineation between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven. You can read that on one of the articles on our website. I go into that in extreme detail. And this differentiation is not always seen in modern versions, but it is strictly seen in the King James Bible. But we are going to rule and reign with Christ after we have received one of the five crowns that are available for service in this lifetime. The crown of rejoicing, the crown of life, the crown of righteousness, glory, the incorruptible crown. These are the crowns that are available. And you can read about that on How Will I Be Judged When I Die? on one of our articles again. And so the theme here is repeating. We are going to serve in a place of rulership based on our faithfulness in this lifetime.
And that expanse will occur for a thousand years. And then God is going to create a new heaven and a new earth after that. So here we have the sequence of things. And today we’re talking about Psalm two. And Psalm two is a geographical psalm. It talks about the goyim, which is a term used in Hebrew for non-covenant nations, the nations that are not Jewish, the goyim. And it’s also being used as a euphemism for non-initiates into the secret societies. That’s the false way that term is used. The goyim are the uninitiated. I won’t go there now. But the point is, we are in this psalm, which is describing the futile resistance of government, human government, against God’s government. And you can see that now in the political realm. We’re seeing a transition where the New World Order was trying to be rammed down our throats, right? In your face. Here’s the agenda. We’re going to cut carbon credits. We’re just going to cull humanity. You can stay in your city that we’ve designed for you. You can’t roam. You can’t travel. Everything is shut down. Life is shut down. We need to consume to live. We need to consume carboniferous fuels to move. Okay. And so the enemy is trying to shut everything down because the New World Order is coming. And that’s going to come in a seven-year tribulation period. But of course, Satan’s trying to get out of that timeline. He’s trying to get it before his time. And as soon as the church is removed, friend, then the New World Order will be in proliferation. As a New World Order attempt occurred in the dispensation of government in the time of Nimrod, who some think is the Mesopotamian Gilgamesh, the same person, a ‘gibborim,’ a giant who ruled and tried to bring men under his jurisdiction. But that failed, of course, because God threw a wrench or a spanner in the works, whichever side of the pond you’re listening on.
But now, friend, let me read Psalm 2 to you. And I’m reading from the King James Bible, and I will put it in the modern vernacular as I’m reading it so that there the vows will be sort of altered for modern listening. Verse 1, “Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing, that kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder and cast away their cords from us.” And notice that the perspective is from the corrupt leader, from the nation-state, the genteel nation-state. It’s from their perspective. In other words, they see the godly or righteous as an actual band, a suppressing restraint on them, when in fact the righteous are destined to rule in God’s eyes, not the unrighteous. And so, the futility of man seeks government without Christ. And we’ve seen various failed forms of government. We’ve seen democracy. We’ve seen republic. We’ve seen tyranny, despotism. But ultimately, friend, Christ will rule as a theocracy where he is king. And friend, it’s his way or the highway. He will rule in Jerusalem, possibly with David as governor. Okay. And there’s promises and scriptures that refer to that. But the kings of the earth have set themselves against Christ and his rulership. There’s no plan for Christ in Agenda 2030 or anything else. But Jesus is coming back to spoil the party, friend. Verse 4. “He that sits in the heavens shall laugh. The Lord shall have them in derision.” And derision isn’t really a term that we would use today, ridiculing or laughing at someone or something. God is laughing at the futility of man trying to set government up in his own image. And in every dispensation in the Bible, man has failed at the end of each one.
And friend, we’re coming into another failure. And that is the coming new world government, which will also fail. Verse 5, “Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath and vex them in his sore displeasure. Yet I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.” And this term Zion, friend, has been used down the ages. It’s really synonymous with Jerusalem. If you recall, Zion appears to have been originally only one section of Jerusalem. It would be the southern hill on which the Jebusite fortification was established. And then David conquered it in 2 Samuel. And in time, Zion became synonymous with Jerusalem. Later, David constructed a tent on the Mount of Zion. And he brought the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem and housed the sacred article inside the tent. So there is the holy place. There is the location of the new temple. The third temple, which is currently being prepared now in Jerusalem. And the artifacts have been constructed. The red heifers have been prepped. They’re looking for the lineage of the priests. And this is all going on in preparation for what is to come behind the scenes. Verse 7. “I will declare the decree the Lord has said unto me, You are my son this day have I begotten thee.” Friend, the incarnation of Christ is in full view here. The Lord God is saying, you are my only begotten son. You will rule with an iron scepter. You will rule in the ages to come. And we, friend, will have, based on our stewardship, a position in the ruling kingdom. And some people are like, oh, that just sounds crazy. It’s, friend, it’s because you haven’t read the Bible yourself in these areas. The millennial reign is spoken of. I’m going to do a separate podcast on it. The book of Ezekiel talks much about it, the latter parts.
The latter, I think it’s from 39 onwards in the 40 chapters of Ezekiel. Verse 8. “Ask of me and I shall give you the heathen for your inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.” Once again, this word heathen is goyim. ‘Goy’ being singular, goyim being plural. It refers to the Gentile nations. God has promised the nations of the earth to his only begotten son as his inheritance. When he returns in power and great glory, he will then take full possession of the governments of the world. Because there will only be one government seated in Jerusalem. And then, once again, there will be business, commerce, trading. You know, this isn’t going to be like the sweet by and by sitting on the clouds with harps. There is an actual jurisdiction, a governmental structure, that God is going to utilize in this kingdom of heaven, also known as the thousand-year millennial reign of Christ. Verse 9, “You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.” That means that Christ is going to destroy the current political, cultural, economic, military powers of the Gentile nations, which have superiority right now. And, of course, this term rod of iron is referred to at least three times in Scripture.
And they relate to the millennial reign of Christ, mostly in the book of Revelation, Revelation 2, 12, and 19, talk about this rod of iron. The implication is that sin in the kingdom of heaven will not be tolerated as it is now. Great harm has happened down the millennia to innocent bystanders because of other people’s sin. And why should they have to pay for it? There shall be recompense in the coming millennial reign. And sin will be treated as very serious. But all the forces, the Russians, the Chinese, the European forces, whoever, the African forces who will join at the Battle of Armageddon, some contend also is the Battle of Gog and Magog. However, in this battle, it is the culmination of the Gentile forces trying to smash Christ. But Christ is going to smash them as pieces of a potter’s vessel. Verse 10, “Therefore, O you kings, be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry.”
And you perish from the way when his wrath is kindled but a little. Friend, we know from Scripture that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom and instruction are the basis of all decisions made by key leaders. And the key leaders in the ages to come, the millennial reign, David, Jeremiah, Isaiah, Esther, you know, the Old Testament saint crew are going to be involved in leadership in the future. And they will base their decisions on the wisdom of God that is given directly rather than going through the training, through universities, and the skewed view of humanism, which has infiltrated so many of our leaders in the past two or three centuries. If Klaus Schwab can set up a World Economic Forum and have a jurisdiction of leaders that he has trained personally in the governments of the world, so Christ, in contradistinction, is the one who will set up key saints in the nations in the coming millennial reign. You can see, friend, that even Satan is a counterfeiter even now. Even now he’s trying to implement a government against Christ’s will, out of order, out of time, that will only see joy in the seven-year tribulation period. But he’s trying to get it in before the saints are ready to evacuate, which is imminent, I might add. And finally, friend, verse 12, “blessed are they that put their trust in him. That is our Savior, Jesus Christ. It is true today.” It is true yesterday. It is true tomorrow. Now let’s talk about that kiss for a moment. Yes, I did mention that word kiss, lest he be angry. In the old days, it was customary in ancient times to kiss a close friend on the cheek or to kiss the ring or hand of the king or leader as a sign of great honor when you greeted them. Those who will not honor Christ in the millennium will experience forms of judgment on their own nation. And the book of Zechariah talks about that in chapter 14. But we’re living in this dispensation of grace right now. We’re living in the church age.
It’s hard for us to see darkly into the next age. But there is going to be a millennial reign and you are going to be their friend. And this life is a preparation for that time frame. And, you know, in Europe, they kiss each other on the cheek, the French, the Italians, even men will greet with kissing on the cheek as a sign of respect. But friend, if we don’t kiss Christ, he will be angry. And we have a lifetime here to pay homage to him. Otherwise, there will be serious consequences. And friend, in this psalm, the affirmations are toward a sitting king. Today, the psalm points out a clear messianic truth. Originally, however, it would have not been unusual for a king to be referred to in a fatherly position over other leaders who were subject to him. And in Israel, where it was understood that God was the king, any earthly figurehead was only a son in comparison. The great authority of the father king was therefore bestowed upon the son. And the father king, who is the son, is then going to bestow measures of authority into different aspects of the earth in the coming millennial reign. But friend, think about it. Hitler tried to establish his third Reich. This was his third reign. He was going to reign for a thousand years in his own image. And it was actually an image of the occult. And I’ve mentioned that. If you want to check out The Dangers of Theosophy, which gets a lot of hits on YouTube, people get upset about that one, largely because there’s so much truth in it that they probably don’t want to hear it. But the Führer, right, Mein Führer, the ultimate leader of the National Socialistic Party, that was a typology of the father king to come.
But Hitler was trying to do it in his own strength. He was trying to do it, once again, out of the timeline that Christ gave in his word. The elites of this world see this earth as something precious to be held on to. But friend, we know that the elements will burn with heat. This entire earth as it currently stands will be burnt to cinder and renovated in the new heaven and earth. And so, once again, it is in acknowledgement of Christ that motivates leaders of this day and age to forge kingdoms in their own image. But ultimately, there is only going to be one kingdom, and that is the kingdom of heaven, which is to come. Friend, I love to hear from listeners. Write your comments on the website. And if this podcast impacted you, I’d love to hear from you. I love to hear from listeners. We get some crazy comments too, don’t get me wrong.
You’ve got to have thick skin when you’re in the ministry, amen? But if you have been blessed in any way by any measure of the website, I want to hear more from you. We have listeners from all over the world. We’ve got guys in New Zealand, Australia, all over Africa, even Europe, France. We’ve got South American listeners, even Russian listeners. We’ve got the whole crew all over the world. The far outreaches, we can even see it from our Google site, who is accessing the website. And thankfully, we have the technology to convert into their language, which is so precious. And so we believe that Christ is reaching many people through this ministry, and it is an honor to be a part of it. Friend, I look forward to seeing you in the millennial reign.
