Christ's Eternal Kingdom
Christ's Eternal Kingdom
Sermon given by the Rev. Nathan Stomberg on the Feast of Christ the King (11/21/2021).
As we look at the Scriptures, we see the stark contrast between the kingdom of God and the kingdoms of this world. If we are reminded of one thing on the Feast of Christ the King, it is that we belong to a Kingdom that is not of this earth, serving a King who is perfectly holy, perfectly righteous, and just, perfectly powerful, and yet perfectly loving and merciful. Yes, and Christ our King has promised to come again and destroy the sin which enslaves and divides us, consummating His eternal kingdom. But until that day, we must daily choose whether we will serve Him, or worship at the feet of our earthly idols.
