I believe what is being said is that Christ’s kingdom has arrived in one sense, and is being expanded and made even broader in another sense. When the advance and expansion of the Kingdom is complete, Christ the King returns and establishes His throne upon the earth.

24:54 "And many Christians have gone along with a charade. They think that the darkness is part of a prophetic fulfillment. The prophetic fulfillment is that the world will be filled with light. Not the other way around. It's not the sun going down. The the future is Christian. The earth will be as full of the knowledge of the Lord, to change the metaphor, as the waters cover the sea." 25:33 "The earth is going to be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea." Yes, AFTER Jesus returns. That's the one thing I don't get about this view. Are they saying this will happen BEFORE Jesus returns? I am not sure how they get that from the texts. I mean, I'd love that! But I don't see it from the texts, themselves.

@@user-bt6hh9yu1n I think I did watch at least some of it. It was quite some time ago. It's a very simple question that requires basically "yes" or "no.". It's really the only part of this view that I still don't quite understand.
