How does Christ's kingship relate to the Gospel?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's kingship is integral to the Gospel, as it is through His authority and power that He calls His people to salvation.

The Gospel presents Christ not only as Savior but as King, who governs His kingdom with authority. Romans 1:16 emphasizes the power of God unto salvation inherent in the proclamation of the Gospel. This kingship is marked by the effectual call of the Holy Spirit, which invites God’s elect to come under His rule. Just as Esther approached her king, believers come to Christ under His sovereignty, responding to the call of salvation extended through the Gospel. The righteousness that Christ embodies ensures that His subjects are treated justly, and He will ultimately judge with righteousness at the end of days, affirming the significance of His kingship in the life of believers.
