The saints

And Jesus said unto them, Verily I tell you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration, when the son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon the twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel:

that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

that your hearts may be established unblameable in holiness, before God even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, with all his saints.

And Enoch the seventh from Adam prophesied against these, saying, Behold the Lord cometh with his holy myriads,

And to him that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, will I give power over the nations:

To him that overcometh I will grant to sit with me on my throne, as I also have overcome, and am set down with my Father on his throne.

And I saw thrones, and persons sat on them, and judgement was given to them: and I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God; and who had not worshipped the beast, nor his image, and received not his mark upon their forehead, and on their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

The smallest

Therefore if ye have controversies about the things of this life, do ye set them to judge, who are despised by the church?

for those, which are visible, are temporary, but the invisible are eternal.

For all that is in the world, the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but of the world.
