>>22857171So first Christ is king of everything—the whole universe, all creation, every realm—and now suddenly this world doesn't count because it's just a test? Sounds like you're walking it back. John 18:36 flat-out contradicts your original flex: “My kingdom is not of this world.” Either Christ rules here and now—meaning he's doing a terrible job—or he's explicitly saying he doesn’t. You can't have it both ways. Saying “the Kingdom of Men is just a test” is a cope to explain why the so-called King is absent while the world burns. If he’s not king here, then maybe stop pretending he runs everything.
