[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 5930191, member: 65823"] The doctrine of premillennialism, states that Christ has not yet set up His kingdom. When the Jews rejected Jesus and demanded that Pilate crucify Him, Jesus postponed the establishment of His kingdom, according to premillennialism. The kingdom is to be established at the second coming of Jesus at which time Jesus is supposed to reign for a thousand years on this earth. One of many consequences, if this doctrine is, Christ is dethroned. The scriptures teach that Jesus is presently king over His kingdom. He is presently described as "the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords" (1 Tim. 6:15). All authority has already been given to Him (Mt. 28:18); , God has put all things in subjection under Jesus' feet (Eph. I:22). He is the lawgiver of His kingdom (Jas. 4:12). He is presently reigning over His kingdom and will continue to reign until the last enemy, death, is destroyed at which time He will deliver the kingdom back to God (1 Cor. 15:24). By denying that the kingdom is presently in existence, premillennialism denies that Jesus is presently king. A man cannot be a king without a kingdom. The denial that the kingdom is presently in existence dethrones Jesus as the King of kings and Lord of lords. [/QUOTE]
