Revelation 2:27 Revelation 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. "And he shall rule them with a rod of iron," etc. He, that is Christ, \ and, he that overcometh by Christ, \ to whom God will give power or kingly dominion over the nations, to wit, Christ and the righteousness, who shall have the dominion in the morning. \ He shall rule them and govern them with an iron rod, that is to say, according to the laws of God, with the kingly power of Christ, which is signified by his "rod of iron," \ and that kingly power is given unto the saints. \ And she brought forth a Man-Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron; which is Christ and his saints, as one mystical Body. "As the Vessels of a Potter shall they be broken to shivers" They, who shall not have Christ and his saints to reign over them, \ and who will not serve Christ and his saints. \ "Even as I received of my Father" The same rule, authority, dominion and power which Christ received of God his Father, he will give to his saints over the nations at his second coming, which is undeniably his kingly power. The saints are joint heirs with Christ. \ In all the blessings and dignities of the New Covenant, whereof that of the kingdom is one. The saints are joined in commission with Jesus Christ in his kingdom, \ and they shall judge the world. \
