Jesus is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords

[Bible Highlighter]

1 Timothy 6:15 - “Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;”

Revelation 17:14 - “These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”

Revelation 19:16 - “And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

Do you feel like this world is hopeless? Do you feel like nobody knows what they are really doing and they are not ruling correctly? Have no fear, for JESUS is the KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. The Lord is above all and He will one day return and set things right under His rule and bring in a beautiful kingdom that is ruled by righteousness. So feeling down and hopeless with this world and it's ways? Trust in the KING and the LORD who is above all today again. Draw closer to the Lord and pray and talk to Him. Let the concerns of your heart be laid upon Him. Let Him be the King and Lord of your life. For no earthly king or lord here on this Earth can help you like the Lord can. Do not look to earthly kings because they are imperfect. Only the King above all Kings is perfect. Trust Him today. Read His Word more and memorize it.

For JESUS is LORD!!!!!!

Things are progressing, but not the way progressives envisioned.

Mankind seems to be in a stupor, unable to appear competent in much.

So... same stuff different day? Lol..

Has mankind ever been competent? Not unless you declare he is quite competent in the ways of sin... this would be true! We just have new means by which to sin, but the motives are exactly the same...

There is no need to wait for such a day, it is already here (Matthew 12:28), in the eternal kingdom of God set up by Jesus at his first coming, which is not physical and earthly (John 18:36), but spiritual, invisible and within (Luke 17:20-21), in the hearts of those where he reigns and rules.

So feeling down and hopeless with this world and it's ways? Trust in the KING and the LORD who is above all today again. Draw closer to the Lord and pray and talk to Him.

To all:

Some folks do not actually read what I write and they make false assumptions that goes against what I just said. My words stand for all who are able to read them for what they say.

I believe that while Jesus should rule in our lives today (of which I basically stated using other words in the OP), there is going to be a 1,000 year reign of Christ and an New Heavens and New Earth after that whereby the Lamb will be the light thereof.

Revelation 20:4-5 KJV
[4] “And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. [5] But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.”

Revelation 21:1-5 KJV
[1] “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. [2] And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. [3] And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. [4] And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. [5] And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.”

Something interesting I heard on Christian radio program recently--that Jesus is not the King of Kings and Lord of Lords yet. Right now, He sits at the right hand of God the Father. It isn't until later in Revelation that He takes the throne. His current position is as our mediator between us and the Father. It isn't until later when we're together with Him that He becomes King.

I am wondering what verses they are basing that idea on. For when I read my Bible, I know that Jesus held all things together by the Word of His power even while upon the cross (Hebrews 1:3). So Jesus is Lord over all things in the creation. Jesus is called Lord, and God by Thomas (John 20:28). Nobody can say Jesus is Lord but by the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthians 12:3).

In fact, Acts of the Apostles 10:35-36 says,
35 “But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ:
(he is Lord of all: )”

 

[Bible Highlighter]

In fact, Jesus (Who held all things together by the Word of His power) could have left the cross at any moment. He could have said, “I’m out of here!” and disappeared. He is after all God and all powerful. He could have done anything.

So seeing this is the case, it was not really the nails that was truly holding Jesus on the cross, but it was His love for you, and me.

That is how much the Lord Jesus loves us.

Prophecy is given in riddles (Numbers 12:8) and is subject to more than one interpretation.

Your intepretation of Revelatin 20:4 is in disgareement with authoritative NT teaching, while mine is in agreement with authoritative NT teaching.

However, Jesus is reigning now, putting all his enemies under his feet (Matthew 28:18;
1 Corinthians 15:24-25; Philippians 2:9-10),
and we are reigning with him (Ephesians 2:6).
