Here is a Summary of the message I preached this Morning. Let me know what you think.
Christ Is King - Not a Rebel
Authority vs. Rebellion (John 1:1–14)
In every generation, people wrestle with authority. But Scripture draws a clear line between the Rebel and the Commander.
Lucifer is the prototype of rebellion: grasping for power that was never his, recruiting through pride, pushing upward to take authority without obedience.
Christ is the perfect picture of true authority: eternal, divine, uncreated. He doesn’t seize authority; He embodies it. He doesn’t manipulate followers; He leads by truth, sacrifice, and integrity. He is the Word made flesh, the Light of the world, the Way to the Father.
Jesus didn’t posture like a rebel. He submitted, obeyed, descended… and was exalted above every name.
So the real question isn’t whether Jesus was a rebel (He wasn’t). The question is which posture we choose:
- Rebellion, like Lucifer: self-will, defiance, chaos.
- Submission, like Christ: humility, obedience, eternal life.
Freedom isn’t found in resisting God’s authority, but in kneeling beneath it. Choose the path of the King who stepped down to lift us up. Choose Christ.
