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.

Then he looked this way, and he said, "Why, here stood a great multitude that no man could number, of all kindreds, tongues, and nations; stood with white robes, in their hands ... and palms, and waving, and shouting, and singing hosannas to the King." He said, "Who are they?" He said, "That's the ones that's come out of great tribulation and washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb.

The Word of God is allotted to each age---what it's to be; and Jesus was the fulfillment of all the prophecies. "In Him dwelt the fullness of the Godhead bodily." It was in Him. He was the one that was in Joseph. He was the one who was in Elijah. He was the one who was in Moses. He was the one who was in David, a rejected king. His own people had rejected him as king. And as he went out of the courtyards, a little afflicted fellow, crawling around, did not like his government, his system; and he spit upon him. And...

Notice, here He comes---leaves the throne as an intercessor, as a slain lamb, to become a lion, King, to bring the whole world into judgment, that's rejected. Our kinsman redeemer then is King over all. Why? He's got the title deed of redemption. It all lays within his hand. I'm glad I know Him. Then claims his inheritance. That's the church, the bride---He claims it. What does He do then? He disposes of his contestant, Satan. He throws him into a lake of fire with all those who were inspired by Satan to reject his...

Behind him was the cross that represented the cross--the cross of Christ, back there, by his baptistery. And he stood up like that, he said, "If I have one word I want to say, is this, all hail the power of Jesus' name, let angels prostrate fall. Bring forth the royal diadem, and crown Him Lord of all." He started staggering backwards like that, when he went backwards, he throwed one arm around one side of the cross, and one, the other, and throwed his head down, and went to meet the Lord. Hallelujah. That's the wa...
