The crowds who hailed Christ as King on what we call Palm Sunday, and the Roman soldiers who nailed the sign ‘king of the Jews’ above Christ’s head on the cross a week later had no idea of the significance of what they were saying. The crowds were caught up in the moment, the Roman soldiers nailed the sign up as an insult. In both cases they were declaring a profound truth. As one born of David’s line, AND as the second person of the Trinity, Jesus is King not only by virtue of His human ancestry, but He is also king by virtue of His divinity: no one is better qualified to be king than Christ. Sadly, many believers live as ‘Christian republicans’, they claim to be citizens of the kingdom of God, but they forget that Christ being their king means they must obey him. Instead, in practice, they live out their daily lives as republicans, deciding for themselves what is right and wrong, good and bad, rather than following their king. Which are you? A republican or Royalist? You are either a subject of the king of kings, and a citizen of his kingdom or you are not. Julian tries to tackle this subject this morning.
