What does the Bible say about Christ's right to rule?

Ezekiel 21:27 reveals that there is a coming King, "whose right it is" to rule, signifying Christ's unique authority. This right is granted to Him by the Father, as seen in passages such as Hebrews 2:13, where Jesus claims the elect given to Him by the Father. Not only does He have this right by divine ordination, but He also holds it through His redemptive work on the cross, where He purchased His people by His blood. Thus, Jesus exercises His right by claiming those He has redeemed and desiring to reign fully in their hearts.
