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.

But let us not stop there. Read now in Revelation 3:21, "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with My Father in His throne." Also read Hebrews 12:2, "Looking unto Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith; Who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." Notice that according to Jesus, Himself, Who wrote the Revelation, He is set down WITH the Father. The Spir...

"He That hath the key of David." This beautiful phrase follows and comes out of the preceding phrase, "He that is true".--Christ, the Perfect Realization, contrasted with Partial Realization. Here it is. Moses was a prophet of God, but Jesus (like unto Moses) was THE Prophet of God. David (a man after God's own heart) was king of Israel, but Jesus is the Greater David, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, God very God. Now David was born of the tribe of Judah out of whom no priests came, yet he ate of the shewbread re...

It is in the midst of a time of great trouble that Jesus comes. And with His coming there is a resurrection. Many are to come forth out of the dust and rise with those who are alive but waiting for His return. And these will be given crowns. Why? Because they are Sons of God. They are kings with Him. They are reigning with Him. That is what the crown signifies--reigning and ruling with the Great King, Himself. That is the promise to all those who suffer with Him here on earth--all those who endured patiently knowin...

Remember, while Jesus was upon earth so was Judas. Each came from a different spirit, and upon death each went to his own place. The Spirit of Christ later came back upon the true church, and the spirit of Judas came back upon the false church. It is right there in Rev. 6:1-8, "And I saw, and behold a white horse; and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering and to conquer. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there...

Yes, there He stands, the Lord of Glory. Once as the Father, He was surrounded by the angels, the archangels, the cherubims, and seraphims and the whole host of heaven, crying, "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God of Hosts". Such was His holiness that no man could approach unto Him. But now we see Him in the church, sharing His own holiness with us, until in Him we have become the very righteousness of God. Yes, and there He stands, "Jesus, Perfect Everything,"--Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, the Fai...
