Did Jesus Already Come With His Angels? | Matthew 25

Video Details

Description: In this sermon, Bryan concludes his series on the Olivet Discourse by examining Matthew 25:31-33, focusing on the final judgment and the Son of Man coming in His glory with the angels. He asserts that Matthew 25 is directly connected to Matthew 24, depicting the 70 AD judgment upon Jerusalem and the Old Covenant leaders. Through extensive cross-referencing of Old Testament passages like Deuteronomy 33, Psalm 18, and Zechariah 14, Bryan explains that "coming with angels" is prophetic, metaphorical language illustrating God executing judgment—in this case, through the Roman army acting as His messengers. Furthermore, Bryan distinguishes between Christ's ascension to the right hand of God as King and High Priest, and His subsequent sitting on the "glorious throne" specifically to act as Judge over the Old Covenant and all the dead. Once this judgment was complete, the New Covenant kingdom was fully established. Bryan concludes with two distinct applications: a warning that Christ remains on His judgment throne to judge all who die without Him, and a call to responsibility for believers. Because Christ now reigns and judges through His saints on earth, Christians have a duty to actively pursue justice and righteousness in society, which includes the appointment of Christian judges.
