What does the Bible teach about the lordship of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that Christ is Lord over all creation, having full authority and sovereignty established through His resurrection.

The lordship of Christ is a central tenet of Christian faith, emphasizing His authority in heaven and on earth as substantiated in Philippians 2:9-11, where it states that 'God has highly exalted Him and given Him the name that is above every name.' This universal lordship means that all of creation, including every person, is under His sovereign rule, as affirmed in Romans 14:9, which declares that Christ both died and rose to be Lord of both the living and the dead. Acknowledging Christ's lordship calls for a response of submission and worship, recognizing His rightful dominion over all aspects of life and spiritual reality.
