The Bible affirms that Jesus Christ is King of Kings and Lord of Lords, sovereign over all creation.
The Scriptures consistently declare the sovereignty of Jesus Christ as King. Acts 17:5-8 presents a pivotal moment where the apostles preached that Jesus is another to be King, contrasting His authority with that of Caesar. This claim of Jesus as King highlights His supreme authority over all rulers and empires. Moreover, in 1 Timothy 6:14-15, Paul refers to Jesus as 'the blessed and only potentate,' emphasizing that all power ultimately belongs to Him. Understanding Jesus’ kingship is essential for recognizing His control over all that exists, aligning with the historic Reformed emphasis on His absolute sovereignty.
