"Christ the King" by Dave Sim | John 18:33-37 | 11.24.2024
from Renew Covenant Church Sermons · host RC2 Lynnwood
From the start, John's Gospel declares Jesus as King through Nathanael's words: "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!" (John 1:49). Throughout the Gospel, Jesus is shown as an unconventional king—one who speaks to the lowly, serves rather than being served, and remains humble. His unique kingdom is not of this world, prompting reflection on its significance for us today. Pilate’s question, "Are you the King of the Jews?" is answered through Jesus’ demonstration of kingship, authority, and reign on the Cross. We approach Advent and the close of the liturgical year reflecting on the implications of this.
