The Bible affirms that Christ is King, having been exalted and given dominion over everything in heaven and on earth.
The exaltation of Jesus Christ as Sovereign King is underscored throughout the New Testament, particularly in Philippians 2:9-11, where it is proclaimed that God has highly exalted Him and given Him a name above all names. This recognition of His lordship indicates that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess His authority. The fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and Christ's own declarations during His ministry reinforce His identity as King. Moreover, His resurrection and ascension signify His enthronement at the right hand of the Father, where He reigns with all power and authority. This sovereignty assures believers that He governs all things for the ultimate good of His people.
