JESUS CHRIST IS LORD
Philippians 2:5-ll “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him a name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those one earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus is LORD, to the glory of God the Father.”
Jesus Christ is LORD. He is the LORD of all creation. He demonstrated and proved that He is LORD of all life when he rose triumphant over Hell and death. The Devil, Satan, the angel who rebelled against God and was thrown down to earth vowed to destroy humanity whom God created in His own image and likeness and imparted the breath of life and became living souls. Thus all religious thinkers admit that there is in man a spark of divinity. It is this spark of divinity in humanity that kept God from destroying humankind even when it has fallen into its worst depravity and degradation.
Where are kings and emperors who arrogated to themselves the title of divinity.. They built monuments of themselves and forced people to bow down and worship their monuments. Their monuments were knocked to pieces and ground to dust by the angry people to kill any remembrances of their cruelty and oppression. Who among the so-called religious leaders and founders of religion rose from the dead? Even Mohammed is still dust inside his tomb in Mecca. Only Jesus Christ rose from the grave and victorious over death. Only Jesus won His right to be LORD of lords and King of kings.. He never used a sword, or a spear, or a bow and arrow or any weapon of mass destruction against His enemies. He won them with love and forgiveness.
