[Shincheonji Compare Bible Doctrine] Who are the kings of the earth in Revelation 1?
"It means the king of the earth, a royal priesthood, the head of the shepherds'
[Shincheonji Church of Jesus, The Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony]
The history and teachings of the Bible can be interpreted literally. However, it is not correct to interpret the prophecies of the Bible literally. Nevertheless, the reason that the interpretation is made like this is because of ignorance of not knowing the meaning of the prophets.
The book of Revelation is a prophetic book written about 2,000 years ago by the Apostle John, a disciple of Jesus, seeing the future in a vision. When God's appointed time comes, God fulfills the prophecy and shows its fulfilled reality to one shepherd, so we can only know by receiving testimony through the shepherd who has seen and heard. It is arrogant to interpret what God has sealed as something like this or that.
At the time of Jesus' first coming, he spoke of the secret of heaven in parables, but today is not a parable. But today is a time to speak plainly rather than parable. Therefore, the reality which is appeared as the book of Revelation is fulfilled is clearly testified through the promised shepherd who is an overcomer The kings of the earth in Revelation 1:5 are not a physical king like the president of the world, but a royal priesthood which is a shepherd.
Jesus is said to be LORD OF LORDS and KING OF KINGS, so the head of the kings of the earth is Jesus. So, that is why the Apostle Peter said that Jesus was the head of the shepherds, the Chief Shepherd. Therefore, it means that he is not the head of the kings of the world, such as the president, but the head of a royal priesthood, that is, the shepherds (1 Peter 2:9, 1 Pet 5:4).
There are two types of spiritual things in the Bible. There is God and Satan in the spirit world. For this reason, even in the physical world, the kings belonging to God and the kings belonging to Satan are divided.
First, the king belonging to God, that is, the shepherds are those who have been freed from sin by the blood of Jesus. They are the kingdom and priests that were purchased with its blood. These are the true ones who were called and taken out of many peoples, nations, and languages and kings. These are the sealed spiritual new Israel 144,000, the 12 tribes who are with the Lamb of Mount Zion.
On the other hand, there are the kings of the earth who have committed adultery with the great prostitute. These are kings who have received Satan's seed from the great prostitute of Babylon, the nation of demons, and have committed spiritual sexual immorality. These are the kings of the earth who hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains from the wrath of God, and they are the kings of Satan who will be judged and end because they have deceived the nations with the wine of the wrath of adulteries. The reality is corrupted pastors of existing denominations today.
In conclusion, the kings of the earth are the 144,000 of the 12 tribes, who are born again with the seeds of God’s word and are harvested and sealed according to the promise in Revelation 7 after the shepherds of the era of spiritual Israel in Revelation 6 are judged and ended. These are the reality of the kings of the earth belonging to God.
God's purpose was to create the kingdom of God and priests through the chosen shepherd in each era during the 6,000-year history. Its purpose is achieved by creating a sealed kingdom and priests with the word of revelation by the promised shepherd appeared in the book of Revelation after 6,000 years have passed. There are a great multitude in white , washed with the blood of Jesus. This is the happiest event in history since the beginning of time and the most blessed event. Now, the kings of spiritual Israel, the era of the shepherds who sowed the seed of weeds and prophesied lies, the era of the traditional church has come to an end, and a new era of new heaven and new earth has begun.
"The kings of the earth in Revelation 1 are physical kings such as Roman emperors and presidents.”

Presbyterian Pastor A
Jesus is the head of the kings of the earth. So, the head of our President Lee Myung-bak is Jesus. The head of Obama is Jesus. Any ruler like Kim Jong-il? Jesus is also the head of Kim Jong-il
Presbyterian Pastor B
What are the kings of the earth? Who were the kings of the earth at that time? I'm talking about the Roman emperor. But Jesus is said to be the head of the kings of the earth.
Presbyterian Pastor C
You need three keys to open the Book of Revelation. The first key should be interpreted literally, as shown here.
Presbyterian Pastor D
Revelation 1:5 says that Jesus Christ is the head of the kings of the earth. Of what things is Jesus become the head on earth? It is the head of President Reagan, the Prime Minister of the Soviet Union, the Prime Minister of Japan, and the President in Korea. So, that's why President Reagan also worshiped the Lord. Although he is the president who rule around the world, his head is also Jesus. The head of the president or king is also Jesus Christ.
