Revelation 3:21

To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne.
Read Chapter 3

Bede

AD 735
overcame: The Lord, as a Conqueror, sat down with the Father on the throne, in that, after the conflict of His passion, after the victory of His resurrection, He manifested Himself more clearly to all, as coequal with the Father in power. Observe, that in all the churches the Lord first declares His own power, then recounts the works of the Church as worthy either of praise or blame, but always with admonition intermixed, and that in the last place He assigns to either part the reward which is due, and which may be understood both of the present and the future. But when He subjoins, &quot;Who hath ears, let him hear;&quot; we are without doubt to understand the ears of the heart for obedience to the commands. <a

Bede

AD 735
sit: By &quot;sitting with Him&quot; He means, being a partner in power and judgement. &quot;Who has made us sit together,&quot; he says, &quot;in heavenly places in Christ.&quot;

Cyprian of Carthage

AD 258
And "To him that overcometh will I give to sit on my throne, even as I also overcame and am set down on the throne of my Father."

Hippolytus of Rome

AD 235
Wasted by disease. For thou hast become God:. The Father of immortality sent the immortal Son and Word into the world, who came to man in order to wash him with water and the Spirit; and He, begetting us again to in corruption of soul and body, breathed into us the breath (spirit) of life, and endued us with an incorruptible panoply. If, therefore, man has become immortal, he will also be God.

Tertullian of Carthage

AD 220
For avoiding it, remedies cannot be lacking; since, even if they be lacking, there remains that one by which you will be made a happier magistrate, not in the earth, but in the heavens. "He sitteth at the Father's right hand "
