Christ will reign in the kingdom of glory forever. God speaks of the eternal kingdom of his Son by his servant David in these words: “His seed shall endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me. It shall be established forever as the moon.” Psalm 89:36, 37. And the angel speaking of Christ addresses Mary in those words: “He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest. And the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his Father David; and he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.” Luke 1:32, 33. At the close of human probation, Christ delivers up the kingdom of grace, which there has an end, 1 Corinthians 15:24-28, and receives from the Father the immortal kingdom of glory: TTKGG 3.2
