Not in that passage...but:
Rev 5:9 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
Rev 5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth."
>>>Rev 5:10 And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.”<<<
I have read that many times, and I always ask myself, is Christ currently reigning on earth? My answer is always, yes.

Douglas. I just realized you are new to this thread. The theme of our discussion was whether or not Christ would return to earth with his saints to reign for one thousand years. Many say yes. I say there is no hard evidence of that happening. There are bits and pieces that might insinuate a physical reign on earth, such as the verse you quoted above; but I believe there is overwhelming evidence in the other direction.

2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
1 John 5:19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
John 14:30 I will no more talk much with you, for the ruler of this world doth come, and in me he hath nothing;
When Christ was tempted in the wilderness Satan offered the kingdoms of the world. Jesus didn’t contradict him. If Satan wasn’t the ruler of the kingdoms of this world how could he offer them to Christ?
Preterists and many others deny the true words of scripture.
