A Biblical and Historical Case from the Covenant Israel Message Perspective
One of the most awe-inspiring promises in the Bible is God’s covenant with King David—a covenant declaring that his royal line would never cease. This ancient throne, established over the House of Israel, was not only meant to serve ancient Judah but was to endure “forever” (2 Samuel 7:13–16). But where is this throne today? Is it lost to history? Or is it, as the Covenant Israel Message proclaims, still active and influential in the modern Western world?
This article explores the biblical foundation, historical continuity, and prophetic fulfillment of the Davidic throne, showing that it still exists today, embodied within the monarchies of the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic, Scandinavian, and kindred European peoples, especially in the British royal family. This truth lies at the heart of the Covenant Israel Message, affirming that God’s promises to David are alive and well.
1. God’s Covenant with David: A Royal Line Forever
The foundation of the Davidic throne lies in a divine promise made by God Himself:
2 Samuel 7:16 – “And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established forever before thee: thy throne shall be established forever.”
This was not a conditional promise. Unlike other covenants that depended on obedience, this was unconditional. God swore that David’s lineage would never lack a man to sit on the throne. This covenant is reaffirmed throughout Scripture:
- Psalm 89:3–4 – “I have made a covenant with My chosen… Thy seed will I establish forever.”
- Jeremiah 33:17 – “David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel.”
This begs a serious question: if God promised the Davidic line would endure forever, and if the throne vanished from the Middle East, where is it now?
2. The Throne Was Not Destroyed—It Was Transplanted
Many assume that when Jerusalem fell to Babylon in 586 B.C., the Davidic line came to an end. But the Covenant Israel Message tells a different story—one rooted in Scripture and confirmed by historical tradition.
When King Zedekiah, the last king of Judah, was overthrown, his sons were killed, but his daughters were spared (Jeremiah 41–43). According to Jeremiah 1:10, the prophet had a commission “to root out, to pull down… and to plant.” The implication is that the royal line was not destroyed—but transplanted elsewhere.
Historical records, Irish legends, and British chronicles tell of a prophet (identified by many as Jeremiah) who brought a princess of royal blood (believed to be Tea Tephi, daughter of Zedekiah) to the British Isles, where she married into a royal line.
This union, the Covenant Israel Message teaches, established the Davidic throne in Ireland, later moving to Scotland and finally England, where it remains today. This throne, uninterrupted and preserved through centuries of turmoil, is the very fulfillment of God’s promise to David.
3. The Stone of Destiny: A Witness to the Royal Line
One of the most powerful symbols of the Davidic throne’s survival is the Stone of Destiny, also known as Jacob’s Pillar Stone. According to biblical tradition, Jacob slept on this stone at Bethel when he received the vision of the ladder reaching to heaven (Genesis 28:18).
Tradition states that the stone was carried by the Israelites, eventually brought to Ireland, then Scotland, and finally placed under the coronation chair at Westminster Abbey in London. Nearly every monarch of the British throne has been crowned over this stone.
This stone is not just symbolic; it is a national and prophetic witness that God’s throne, through the Davidic line, remains active among the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic and kindred Western nations.
4. The British Monarchy and the Davidic Line
The British royal family traces its ancestry through a long line of monarchs, many of whom bore Israelite names such as David, Solomon, and Jeremiah. The coronation ceremony itself is deeply biblical, involving:
- Anointing with oil, as the kings of Israel were anointed
- The presentation of a Bible, affirming the monarch’s duty to uphold God’s law
- A throne above the Stone of Destiny, believed to be the very stone Jacob rested upon
Is this coincidence? Or could it be that the royal family of Britain is indeed the continuation of the Davidic line—a fulfillment of prophecy and a testament to the faithfulness of God?
The Covenant Israel Message confidently asserts the latter. Far from being obsolete, the throne of David is active today in the West, and the monarch reigning over the United Kingdom and other commonwealth realms is a modern heir of David.
5. Prophecy Demands a Continuing Throne
Biblical prophecy also confirms that the Davidic throne must be in existence until the return of Christ, who is the ultimate heir to David’s seat.
Luke 1:32–33 – “The Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David: and He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever.”
If Christ is to return and sit on a currently existing throne, that throne must have been preserved somewhere on earth. It cannot be a mythical, long-lost relic. It must be real, visible, and continuous.
The Covenant Israel Message teaches that Jesus will one day return to claim the throne now occupied by His royal ancestor’s descendants—a literal throne, preserved throughout history in the West.
6. Western Nations Bear the Marks of Israelite Kingship
The survival of the Davidic throne is not isolated to a single family. It is part of the larger fulfillment of God’s covenant with Israel. The Anglo-Saxon-Celtic, Scandinavian, and kindred peoples of Western Europe, including Britain, Ireland, Norway, Denmark, and their offshoots in Canada, Australia, and the United States, show strong parallels with the promises given to ancient Israel:
- A throne and kingdom enduring through generations
- A legal and cultural system based on biblical principles
- National symbols with Israelite roots (e.g., the lion, the unicorn, harp, and crown)
- A global leadership role, spreading freedom, law, and gospel light
The Davidic throne, then, is not merely symbolic—it is at the center of a divine national destiny, fulfilling God’s promises to the House of Israel in the modern West.
7. The Coronation of Charles III: A Living Testimony
The 2023 coronation of King Charles III was watched by millions around the globe, but few realized they were witnessing the continuation of a biblical throne. The ceremony included prayer, anointing, oath-taking, and Scripture reading—in the very pattern God ordained for Israel’s kings.
This is not merely ceremony. It is prophetic affirmation that God has kept His word. The Davidic line, far from vanishing, sits today at the heart of a global commonwealth—a royal lineage that traces back not only to medieval kings but to David himself.
Conclusion: The Davidic Throne Is Alive in the West
So, is the Davidic throne still in existence today? According to the Covenant Israel Message, the answer is a resounding yes. God’s covenant with David was unbreakable, and history has shown that the throne continued—not in ancient Jerusalem—but in the isles of the West, among the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic, Scandinavian, and kindred peoples.
Far from being a quaint idea or forgotten theology, the existence of the Davidic throne today is central to understanding prophecy, national identity, and the coming Kingdom of God.
The British monarchy, with its Israelite traditions and coronation rituals, is not just an institution of history—it is a living, reigning proof of God’s covenant faithfulness. And as the Western nations awaken to their true Israelite heritage, they will rediscover their place in God’s unfolding plan—one that includes not only a people, but a throne, waiting for the return of the rightful King: Jesus Christ, the son of David.
