He has all authority in heaven, in earth, and under the earth. We’re not serving a mere religious leader, but one who is King and Monarch of the universe. The Lord Jesus is the exalted God, the immortal God, living in unapproachable light of divine glory. In other words, even the stones will affirm the same.

They cried out, “… Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.” In John 12:13, upon His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the crowds extravagantly honoured Him and praised God for sending this King into Jerusalem. In Acts 2:30, speaking to an audience, Peter said, “Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him (David), that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne.” Had Jesus denied being a King, Pilate wouldn’t call Him the King of the Jews. In fact, in the 39th verse, speaking to the Jews, Pilate confirmed Jesus’ affirmation when he said, “…will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?” His response meant, “You’re right.” He spoke in the affirmative.
