Christ is our King because He was appointed by God the Father and reigns eternally from His position at the right hand of God.
The belief that Christ is our King is rooted in Scripture, as seen in various passages including Psalm 2 and Revelation. The sermon emphasizes that Jesus was not only King during His earthly ministry but holds the title of King of Kings and Lord of Lords eternally. He fulfilled all righteousness, redeems His people with His blood, and intercedes for them at the Father's right hand. His reign consists of both His divine authority and His sacrificial love, assuring the believer of His sovereign governance over all creation.
