Luke 19:27
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me. (KJV)
This comes from the parable of the harsh master/parable of the talents.
The parable starts: He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.. (Luke 19:12)
Matthew has a similar story which defines the Kingdom of God as the Master (Matt 25:14) and ends And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (Matt. 25.29-30)
In your opinion, are these too passages referring to the same thing? Or is one talking about an earthly death and the other a spiritual?
