Le Roi des Rois

By David Maas
Image
Jésus règne maintenant en maître sur les Rois de la Terre et il conduit les nations vers la Ville Sainte de la Nouvelle Jérusalem. Jésus est appelé le “ Chef des rois de la Terre ” dans le Prologue de  l'Apocalypse . Cette déclaration est faite au présent puisque sa souveraineté est basée sur sa Mort et sa Résurrection. Il ne gouverne pas par droit héréditaire, puissance économique ou militaire, mais à cause de sa mort rédemptrice. “ L'Agneau ” sacrificiel est celui qui est assis sur le Trône, et son autorité s'étend même jusqu'à “ la mort et l'Hadès .”

Jesus Reigns Now!

By David Maas
Image
Jesus triumphed over Satan and Sin through his Death and Resurrection, therefore, he now reigns from the Messianic Throne . Jesus triumphed over his enemies on the Cross and began his reign as the promised Messianic King following his Death and Resurrection. He is not waiting for some future event before he receives his sovereignty over the nations. Unlike the political powers of this age, he conquered through his sacrificial death rather than tyranny, lies, political manipulation, or violence.  It is the Crucified One who now reigns on Mount Zion!

Serviteur ou Conquérant?

By David Maas
Image
Jésus a rejeté l'offre de Satan d'un pouvoir politique illimité et a plutôt choisi la voie du Serviteur souffrant et d'une mort injuste . Satan a tenté Jésus en lui offrant le pouvoir politique sur “ tous les royaumes du monde ”, mais il a refusé l'offre séduisante du Diable. Au lieu de cela, le Nazaréen s'est soumis à la voie du ‘ Serviteur souffrant de Yahweh ’ qui a conduit à sa mort inévitable sur la Croix romaine.

A Very Different King

By David Maas
Image
The Lamb’s reign began with his Death and Resurrection. Since then, he has been shepherding the nations toward New Jerusalem . The  Book of Revelation  declares Jesus is the “ Ruler of the Kings of the Earth .” When it describes how he reigns over the “ nations ,” it presents a King of an entirely different nature than Caesar or the political rulers of this evil age. Christ is the “ Lamb ” who was slain to redeem men from every nation, and now, he is “ shepherding ” the “ nations ” so that the city of “ New Jerusalem ” will be fully inhabited.

Servant or Conqueror?

By David Maas
Image
Jesus rejected Satan’s offer of unlimited political power and instead chose the way of the Suffering Servant and an unjust death - Matthew 4:8-11. Satan tempted Jesus by offering him political power over “ all the kingdoms of the world ,” but he refused the Devil’s seductive offer. Instead, the Nazarene submitted to the way of the ‘ Suffering Servant of Yahweh ’ that led to his inevitable death on the Roman Cross.

Gathering the Elect

By David Maas
Image
The saints will be assembled before Jesus on the Last Day, and the wicked will be collected for judgment and cast from his presence . On the Last Day, the righteous and the unrighteous will be “ gathered ” before Jesus, the former for vindication and salvation, and the latter for judgment and condemnation. This event is linked in the New Testament to Christ’s “ arrival ” at the end of the age when he will resurrect the dead, judge the dead and living, terminate the “ Last Enemy, Death ,” and consummate the Kingdom of God.
