As I understand end time predictions, all that have lived and died will arise for the final judgement.
That is the second resurrection.
There are many souls in heaven at present including Jesus. He like all the rest is to reclaim their physical form upon return.
Jesus already has been raptured in heaven however when Christians die their spirit goes up to behold his glory that he had before the world was. The born again believers in Christ will reclaim their physical form at the rapture event. (The first resurrection).
At that time is when we truly see if Jesus sits at the right hand of God.
The marriage supper of the Lamb the first resurrection event in heaven. The raptured will have bodies in heaven at this point in time while on earth the wrath of God will be poured out. Those that refuse the mark of the beast will be martyred and be a part of the first resurrection.
If I recall correctly, end time prediction speak of electing a God for ourselves. Jesus then becomes a candidate to speak to all the other false prophets that dwell at end time.
The anti-christ and the beast is end time prophesy and he will speak to all the false prophets that dwell at the end time. Jesus Christ then comes down with the saints and because he is king of kings and lord of lords he will overcome them. kjv Revelation 17:14
Elijah and Enoch have never died thus they are up in heaven too with physical bodies. They are not spirits, Jesus is not just a spirit but he that was dead is alive for evermore, etc... kjv rev 1:18 All the other spirits of believers in heaven will not recieve incorruptible bodies like Christ has until the rapture. This is part of the first resurrection those that are beheaded or martyred on earth after the rapture will complete the first resurrection and rule and reign with Christ for the thousand years. kjv rev 20:4
Its the second resurrection that all that have died that were not in the first resurrection will be raptured. Those not in the book of life will experience a second death as their new bodies are thrown into the lake of fire. This is in respect to the great judgment.
After the end the earth will find itself with a human political leader and it will also have a human spiritual leader.
No, When Jesus takes his rule for a thousand years he will rule however those of the first resurrection will rule and reign with Christ. Your confusing the anti-christ who will have a spiritual leader. kjv rev 13:11-12.
Those not experiencing the second death (Great White Throne Judgment kjv rev 20:11-15)will see a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. kjv rev 21:1
