What kingdom is given to Christ in Daniel 7?
In Daniel 7, the kingdom given to Christ is the earthly thousand-year reign of Christ. It is granted by the Ancient of days to God the Son, the Lord Jesus, and includes dominion, glory, and a kingdom over all people, nations, and languages, an everlasting dominion that shall not pass away or be destroyed.
Les explains from Daniel 7 that the Ancient of days gives authority to God the Son, the Lord Jesus, and He receives dominion, glory, and a kingdom. This kingdom is the earthly thousand-year reign of Christ, given that all people, nations, and languages are included. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that shall not pass away, and His kingdom shall not be destroyed. The thousand years is not the end but an introduction to eternity, giving a limited view of the eternal state of ruling and reigning with Christ over the heavenlies.
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
What was God the Son given in Daniel 7 when He came before the Ancient of Days?
