What does it mean for Jesus to be King? What does that look like? We know that the Kingdom of God doesn't look like our kingdoms. We know that God's ways are not like ours. Jesus came to a nation expecting their Messiah to come and deliver them out of the hands of their occupiers with force and bravado. They had developed a picture of what the coming Kingdom of God would look like based on the way human kingdoms functioned, but Jesus came and defied the human narrative. Jesus came and fulfilled the Scriptures to deliver a kingdom of love, grace, mercy, and compassion. He came to deliver His people from the strongholds of sin into the stronghold of God's loving arms.
