From Sunday’s readings Psalm 118:22 speaks of Jesus as “the stone which the builders rejected has become the chief corner stone.” Revelation 1:5 identifies Jesus Christ as ‘the ruler of the kings of the earth.” With these verses in mind, we recognize that Jesus is Lord over all creation. His Lordship is not established upon nor dependent upon our acknowledgement. He IS Lord. He is Lord because the Father has declared it to be so. He is the one to whom all obedience belongs. Jesus is Lord. The resurrected one is our King.
