When Will Jesus Be Crowned and by Who?
1) Direct Answer
Jesus will be crowned after the catching away of the saints, at the marriage supper in glory, and He will be crowned by His redeemed Bride. Then He will return with His saints and take the throne of David in the Millennium, where His Kingship is openly manifested before the nations.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- The marriage of the Lamb comes first: “Let us be glad and rejoice… for the marriage of the Lamb is come” (Revelation 19:7-9). That is where the Bride is with Him in heaven. Revelation 7:9-17 shows that redeemed multitude before the throne, and Revelation 20:4 shows the overcomers who reign with Him—this is the Bride company present to honor Him.
- The redeemed have crowns and worship before Him: the elders “cast their crowns before the throne” (Revelation 4:10-11), showing the saints yielding all honor to the One on the throne and to the Lamb (Revelation 5:8-14). That is the Bride’s act of coronation—giving Him the diadem of her love, victory, and authority.
- Then He appears as the crowned King: when He comes back, “on His head were many crowns… KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS” (Revelation 19:11-16). What was recognized in heaven is then displayed to the world.
- He takes the earthly throne: “The Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David: and He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever” (Luke 1:32-33). “The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of His Christ” (Revelation 11:15).
- God has already exalted Him: “God also hath highly exalted Him… that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow” (Philippians 2:9-11). The Father has placed all things under Him (1 Corinthians 15:25-28), and the Bride acknowledges and crowns what God has decreed.
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- Now notice, He is already Lord by divine decree. But at the marriage supper the Bride—redeemed from all ages—crowns Him in worship and surrender. That is heaven’s coronation.
- Then He returns with many crowns to sit on David’s throne in the Millennium. That is earth’s recognition of the same Kingship.
4) Reinforcing Statement
You see, it’s not three Gods. The one God was manifested in Jesus Christ, and soon the Bride will crown Him King of kings and Lord of lords. Be ready for that hour.

Listen how the Scripture reads here: Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

If you would like to turn to the Scripture just for about thirty minutes' talk, I would like for you to read with me out of the book of Revelation, the l9th chapter, and I would like to read down to the 7th verse inclusive. And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: For true and righteous is his judgments: for he has judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and has aveng...

Remember, Satan tried to tempt Him one time on top of a mountain. See? The new city has twelve foundations, as we went through it: the twelve patriarchs, 144 cubits being the breastplate of Aaron, twelve gates of pearl, twelve disciples' names. Jesus stand the headstone on the throne, when his saints has crowned Him the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, and He's the headstone.

...ll give them every one to you if you'll just worship me right here; if you'll say I'm right, agree with me in the Scripture. You know, I'm a teacher, I have a big seminary, whole lot of angels out here. And if you'll just agree with me: I'll give them every one to you, let you be the ruler." Jesus said, "Get thee hence, Satan." That's right. "Don't tempt Me." He walked around there and angels come and minister to Him. What is it?

God is in His Son, do you believe that? The Bible said that, God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. Do you believe it? Yes, sir. When He was here on earth, He said He was God. He looked like God; He acted like God; He preached like God. He healed like God; He died like a prince, and rose like God. He was God. He proved He was God. Hallelujah! Every man and women that's ever amounted to a hill a beans has believed Him. No wonder he said: Mid rendering rocks and darkening skies, My Saviour bowed His hea...
