The Ruler of Kings

Image
Jesus, the Faithful Witness, now reigns supreme over the Kings of the Earth, and he is shepherding the nations to the Holy City of New Jerusalem . Jesus is called the “ Ruler of the Kings of the Earth ” in the Prologue of Revelation . This declaration is made in the present tense since his sovereignty over the Earth is based on his Death and Resurrection. He does not rule by hereditary right, economic power, or military might, but because of his redeeming death. The slain “ Lamb ” is the one who sits on the Throne. His authority extends even over “ Death and Hades .”

The Man of the Spirit

Jesus is the Anointed Son of God, and from the start, his life was characterized by the empowering presence of the Spirit . When an angel informed Joseph that the child carried by Mary was “ conceived of the Holy Spirit ,” it indicated that something more than just a miraculous birth was about to unfold. From the beginning, the activity of the Spirit dominated the life of Jesus of Nazareth.  He was “ Jesus, the one called Christ ,” the “ Anointed One ,” the long-awaited Messiah of Israel.

Le Salut de Yahvé

Jésus signifie ‘Yahvé sauve.’ Dans l'homme de Nazareth, le Salut promis par le Dieu d'Israël est arrivé dans toute sa gloire . L'ange a informé Joseph que l'enfant porté par Marie était “ engendré du Saint-Esprit .” Il ordonna à Joseph de nommer l'enfant ' Jésus ' - “ Appelez son nom Jésus, car il sauvera son peuple de ses péchés .” Ce nom indiquait l'acte salvifique de Dieu pour l'humanité qu'Il était sur le point de révéler au monde. Le monde verrait le ‘ Salut de Yahvé ’ en Jésus de Nazareth.

Trônant sur Sion

Les rois de la Terre ont conspiré pour renverser le Messie, mais Dieu l'a ressuscité et l'a élevé au Trône messianique - Psaume 2:1-6. Le  Deuxième Psaume  est un passage clé appliqué à Jésus dans le Nouveau Testament, en particulier dans le  Livre des Hébreux . Quand ses prédictions se sont-elles accomplies, et le Messie règne-t-il maintenant sur le trône de David, ou le monde attend-il toujours son intronisation? Qu'en est-il de la “ révolte ” prédite des nations et des Rois de la Terre contre le Fils de Dieu? - (Psaume 2:1-6)?

The Nations Revolt

The conspiracy by the Earth’s kings to unseat the Messiah is applied in the New Testament to the plot to destroy Jesus – Psalm 2:1-6. The Second Psalm is a key passage applied to Jesus by the New Testament. When were its predictions fulfilled, and is the Messiah reigning now on David’s Throne? Is the world still waiting for his enthronement at a future date? What about the “ revolt ” of nations and kings against the Son of God? Is it a prediction of a coming war between Jesus and earthly governments - (Psalm 2:1-6)?
