CLAIM: During Jesus’ return, He will defeat the Antichrist, who is invading Israel. This passage was partially fulfilled by the invasion of the Assyrian king, Sennacherib, in Isaiah’s generation. However, the details of this passage were not completely fulfilled at that time. There was not a time of “multiplication and great joy” in the “dividing of the spoil” by which the garments and instruments of the slain army were “burned as fuel for the fire” (9:3-4). Neither was the promised Child established in His government on the throne of David, and over His kingdom with justice and righteousness across the earth (9:7). The Throne of David speaks of the earthly dimension of the Messiah’s reign.
False.
Christ is on the throne (Ephesians 1:19-20). Christ is reigning with all authority and power (Matthew 28:18). The Throne of David is estblished, being a spiritual throne as all real thrones are (Colossians 1:16). The throne of David no more speaks of the primarily physical, earthly dimension than my right foot is my left, respectfully (see further discussion on the Throne of David here).
