God intends for Christ, Head and Body, to be his Throne. The holy city, the new Jerusalem, is Christ—Head and Body. The new Jerusalem shall govern the creation for eternity.
The work of placing his Person, his Throne in us, has begun today. We may notice in the Book of Revelation that to the last of the churches our Lord says, “I stand at the door and knock.” Then he says that to him who overcomes will be given to sit with Christ on his Throne just as He overcame and sits with his Father on the Father’s Throne.
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (Revelation 3:20-22—NIV)
From my point of view, the passage above is telling us that Christ wants to enter and have fellowship with us. As He does, we become the Throne of God. Christ himself is the Throne of God, and when He is dwelling in us, we become the Throne of God.
I am glad He said He would eat with us and we with him. He dines on our obedience and worship. We dine on his body and blood. He did not claim that because He enters us we would become a powerful person who will control or save the world.
