JESUS IS OUR KING
The role of Mediator is threefold:
Jesus is our Prophet. Who brings us the Word of God.
Jesus is our Priest. Who offered Himself as our sacrifice and intercedes.
And thirdly, Jesus is our King!
His kingship was something given to Him and is not a position usurped by Him. He received it from the Father. I refer you to I Corinthians 15:24 and Philippians 2:5-11.
His Kingship was inaugurated during His earthly ministry. The Jews were looking for an earthly king and a deliverer from Roman oppression. They failed to see that the kingdom’s power was right before them in the person and work of Christ. HIs kingdom was a spiritual kingdom and an eternal kingdom and they missed it.
As king, He is the Son of God.
As king, He is our Boss, Ruler, our Lord.
As king, we owe Him total allegiance.
As our king, He will provide and protect us as His subjects!
He is King of all Kings and Lord of all Lords and will be so for eternity! (Revelation 17:14)
