Thus far we have learned that the Incarnation is politics. Jesus was born as King of kings and Lord of lords; John anointed Him as Messiah and Son of God; God exalted Him to His right hand and gave Him authority over heaven and earth. Jesus is God’s Political Ruler. The Incarnation is politics. Knowing this doesn’t answer all our questions. In particular, how does Christ go about spreading His rule among the nations of the earth? What we find is that the Person of the King shapes the nature of the kingdom.
