God's plan of salvation as revealed in His holy days has two basic components-a spiritual (encapsulated by the Passover and Pentecost) in which our Lord and Savior emptied His divinity in a sacrifice for the penalty of our sins and then gave the gift of His Holy Spirit (His very mind—I Corinthians 2:16) to His called-out ones (the first fruits I Corinthians 15) to train for leadership positions in His Kingdom. The physical component (the defeat of the enemies of God and His law) will not occur until the Day of Trumpets (Yom Teruah), when the resurrected saints, including those changed at his coming (I Corinthians 15:52; I Thessalonians 4:13-18), now as spirit beings, will join their warrior king in putting an end to the evil anti-God, anti-law human governments which have defiled the earth for 6,000 years. After the great harvest of the Millennium, God's resurrected saints will be called upon to put down one more satanic insurrection at the end of the Millennium, leading to the Great White Throne Judgment, after which Jesus Christ will turn over the entire enterprise to God the Father. Psalms 97 and 98 describe the military exploits of Jesus and the Saints cleaning up the defiled earth preparing for a future glorious event described in Revelation 21:2-13 when the New Jerusalem comes down from heaven, ushering in the end time when Christ will turn the Kingdom over to God the Father, having destroyed every ruler, authority, and power, including death (I Corinthians 15:24). As God's people ponder these unsettling, but joyful events, they must faithfully zero on the mandate to love God with all their heart, diligently keeping His holy and spiritual law, while intensely hating evil and lawbreaking with everything in their inner core.
