What sequence of events does Psalm 2 show according to this teaching?
Psalm 2 shows Christ would come, be rejected, ascend back to glory, then the time of vexation and wrath of God—the tribulation—then God sets His King on the holy hill of Zion, then comes the Kingdom, with no hint of a 2,000-year break.
Les explains that Psalm 2 lays out the Old Testament program on the timeline: Christ would come, be rejected, and ascend back to glory; next would come the time of God's vexation and wrath, the tribulation; then God sets His King on the holy hill of Zion; then comes the Kingdom. Les stresses there was no hint in Psalm 2 of a 2,000-year break. Unlike Jesus, who could stop at the appropriate place in Isaiah 61, Peter did not know this break. Still on covenant and kingdom ground, Peter quoted the whole prophecy as though it would all take place one thing right after another.
