Friendly Fire & Collateral Damage // How God Became King
Are you ready for a bold statement? Here goes: Our God, Jesus Christ, is the King of the World. And no—not in some spiritual, theoretical, or “far off future” sense. He is currently enthroned, ruling the world with grace and truth. That’s the truth. And that truth should change everything for us. Which brings us to a second bold statement: Most Christians don’t know or don’t live like this is the case. You see, when we realize the full weight of the fact that Jesus is King—how it happened and what it means—we will never see our faith the same way again.
As the Kingdom of God advances forward, an Enemy is constantly attempting to snuff it out. And that Enemy is not people who vote or think differently than you. In fact, our Enemy isn’t flesh and blood at all. And the sooner we realize that, the better off our relationships will be.
