Why is Christ's exaltation significant for Christians?
Answered in 1 source
Christ's exaltation is significant because it affirms His sovereignty and validates His completed work of salvation.
The exaltation of Christ, as described in Isaiah 52:13, signifies His position of supreme authority and honor following His humbling suffering. Post-resurrection, Philippians 2:9 states that God has highly exalted Him and given Him a name above every name. This exaltation not only confirms Christ's victory over sin and death but also reassures believers of their secured position in Him. Understanding His exalted status empowers Christians, motivating them to place their faith solely in Him as the sovereign mediator who reigns at the right hand of God, ensuring that His intercession for us is perfect and perpetual.
