It was the hope of the Early Church that Jesus would eventually put down all statists and all institutions[1] through Godly Families (#72; #75). The Early Church wrestled against demonic “powers.”[2]
Christ's judgment of powers began in the Apostolic Church.[3]
Christ’s power and the impotence of the “powers” is demonstrated through an obedient Church.[4]
All the kingdoms of the world have now been definitively delivered to the Resurrected and Enthroned Christ[5] and shall be progressively delivered to Christ by His saints[6]

Full Preterists may argue that all these prophecies were fulfilled during the years when the church battled Israel, c. A.D. 33-70. The result for us is the same: "archists" have no legitimate claim on our allegiance.
