There is no doubt in my mind as to the identity of this great King. In fact the Bible clearly defines Him as the Lord God Almighty.
For example, Psalm 24:10 enquires, twice in fact: “Who is this King of glory?”
And the same Psalm (twice) answers that fundamental question of life! “Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.” (Verse 8) Then again: “Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory.” (Verse 10)
Specifically, the King of Glory is … Jesus, the Son of God!
The Lord Jesus!
On this Point the Bible is adamant.
Now enters man, humanity, into the conversation. Contemporary man, the world in which we live. He/she has a different answer to our question, “Who is the King of Glory?”
And humankind now says: “MAN, MAN HIMSELF IS KING!”
Man can now decide even if he is a man! Perhaps he is a woman!
He can, against every Bible mandate, live his own life as HE (a human being) pleases!
Man today is his own creator, his own saviour (science can do everything these days), and his own god.
Yes, a battle is brewing!
And I am trusting the Bible to be right.
Jesus Christ the Son of God … the King of Glory!
I have by faith made Him my Lord!
I have trusted His Blood shed on an old rugged Cross to wash my sin away.
And this real “King of Glory,” of Whom I write this Thursday morning … is coming again!
When … “At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Isaiah 45:23 and Romans 14:11 and even Philippians 2:10-11.
I’m glad I know Who Jesus is!
