What does it mean for Jesus to be Caesar's King?

Answered in 1 source

To say Jesus is Caesar's King means that even the most powerful rulers are ultimately under His authority.

Declaring that Jesus is Caesar’s King signifies that all earthly authorities are subordinate to Him. In Acts 17:5-8, the assertion that Jesus is King even troubles the rulers, as it challenges their perceived authority. This highlights the contrast between divine sovereignty and earthly power, showing that God’s eternal decree governs all earthly events, including political decisions. It reassures Christians that no matter the apparent power of earthly rulers, Jesus Christ holds the ultimate authority, and His kingdom far surpasses all human institutions.
