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.

...He saved me; buried, He carried my sins far away; rising, He justified freely forever: Someday He's coming; oh, glorious day." No wonder it's thrilled the hearts of poets, and authors, and prophets through the years. And any man that ever amounted to a hill of beans believed on Him as Saviour. Eddie Perronett, when he was all persecuted by the outside world... I stood recently by his grave, him and Cowper, who wrote, "There Is A Fountain Filled With Blood."

Every poet that's ever amounted to anything, any man that ever amounted to a hill of beans, believed in Him, had faith in Him as being divine. One said, Living He loved me, Dying He saved me; Buried, He carried my sins far away; Rising, He justified, freely, forever; Someday He's coming, O glorious day. What do you think about Him, Eddie Perronet? When he was there in prison they were making fun of him, he wrote with a pen when the Holy Ghost touched him. He said, All hail the power of Jesus' name! Let angels prost...

Now, you see, Jesus had proven to God that He had been the right kind of Son. And God took Him up on the top of the mountain, brought witnesses out there, heavenly witnesses and earthly witnesses, and He clothed Him in immortality. When they looked up, they said His garments shined like the sun! A supernatural something taken place. His garments glistened like the sun in its middle of the day, as white as they could be. God placed on Him the robe of immortality, showing that He had received Him. That's the thing th...

But we'll be gone at that time. Yes, sir. There's a part of us that's immortal. No atom, no hydrogen or nothing is needed for that. It's spirit. We'll be caught up in a moment, in a twinkling of the eye, to meet the Lord in the air. There's three comings of the Lord; you know that. There's three of everything in the Scripture. Three is God's perfect number. Threes, sevens, twelves, twenty-fours, forties, fifties. But three times... He came, once to redeem His bride. He comes the next time, we meet Him in the air, t...
