Introduction

• Fallen Condition Focus: We as humans tend to rebel from authority, the authority of God and the authority of human beings.
• Sermon Theme Statement: Since God has established and glorified Jesus his Son as his King, we ought to humbly submit to his rule and reign in our lives

I. God established David's reign over the nation of Israel (2 Sam. 5:1-25)

II. God has established Jesus Christ as king of his heavenly kingdom (Phil. 2:5-11)

III. God is calling us to humbly submit our lives to Jesus Christ his king (Phil. 2:12-13)

• "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe in the gospel." Mark 1:15
• Where is the kingdom of God breaking in to our lives? Wherever we are by faith and obedience submitting to God's grace and Christ's rule in our lives.
• Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
