Matthew 19: 28 - 30; Mark 10: 29 - 31; Luke 18: 29 - 30, 22: 30.
Assuredly I say unto you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
This was spoken by Jesus toward the end of His earthly Ministry. Many promises were made here, and many of the promises have been claimed by others, who Jesus was Not Talking To!! Lets look at this passage and see what it says. When Jesus says you who followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Jesus is talking to the disciples only. Many Gentiles think they are going to be sitting in these thrones. How can a Gentile, who is not familiar with Jewish Law expect to judge Israel? There is only One Faith, One God, and One Jesus! There are many facsimile Christian religions out there, that are trying to pass themselves off as the true thing. A facsimile is not an original, and will never be. This is a bad place to leave off but I have run out of room. Will continue next post.
