Here is how they are reigning:
*Through righteous lives Romans 5:17 Christians rule over sin in this world.
*Through righteous judgments I Corinthians 6:2 Christians have the right to tell the world if they are doing something wrong. (transgressing God’s laws) Acts 4:8:20
*When we teach the world about sin and its consequences, we do so through the power of the Spirit. John 16:8
Yes, we are living in the last days NOW ( last days before Jesus takes the action of Isaiah 11:3-4; Rev. 19:14-15)
Christ reigns in Heaven NOW ( and Since Pentecost Christ is Head of the Christian congregation )
Matthew chapter 24 has both a minor and a MAJOR fulfillment. The MAJOR part is for our day, our time frame.
True followers who reign as kings and priests (Luke 22:28-30) have that first or earlier resurrection of Rev. 20:4,6; 1st Cor. 6:2; Daniel 7:18
Christians Not only have the right but the responsibility to declare God's standard of right and wrong - Matt. 24:13-14; Acts 1:8
Yes, those like the ones of Luke 22:28-30 through righteous lives (Rom 5:17) are the ones of Rev. 5:9-10; Rev. 20:4.
Yes, God's holy spirit gives the world convincing evidence concerning 'sin', and concerning 'righteousness', and concerning 'judgement' ( which can be favorable or adverse judgement ) - John 16:8
So, the world's failure to put faith in God's Son Christ Jesus will be exposed.
Jesus being ascended to heaven will provide evidence of Jesus being righteous and why un-repenting sinners (includes Satan) merit adverse judgement.- John 16:10-11; Rev. 21:8
And in connection to Acts 4:8-20 in verse 12 we are informed that there is No other name..... whereby we must be saved.
That one name is: Jesus Christ.
