It says Christ was promised the throne. It says Christ was raised from the dead. From there, everything else you said is not in the text.

1) Christ was promised the throne of David,- Luk 1:32 He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest. And the Lord God shall give Him the throne of His father David.

2) Christ is physically reigning,- Act 1:9 And saying these things, as they watched, He was taken up. And a cloud received Him out of their sight.

3) Christ sat down on a throne given to Him. - Heb 1:3 who being the shining splendor of His glory, and the express image of His essence, and upholding all things by the word of His power, through Himself cleansing of our sins, He sat down on the right of the Majesty on high,

HD,
I grant you that the scriptures say Christ was promised
to reign on the throne of David (your #1)

As to #’s 2 & 3...

#2 - Your verse says Christ was caught up in the clouds. It
doesn’t say He is physically reigning.

#3 - It says He sat down. It doesn’t say He is reigning on
the throne of David.

You have made two large assumptions.
