Proclaim that Jesus Christ is the Lord!

I hope that you have understood why the Son of God said: “I accept, Father!”. Jesus came and died humiliated. The greatest humiliation that a person could endure. He who is Son of God, the King of King, the Lord of lords, came to be known as a malefactor. But the Father resurrected Him and He is in Heaven, keeping the second moment, the hour of His glorious second coming, when He will come to reign over the earth.

And between the first and second moment, Christ put the church. We are this Church and we are living between the first and second time: the first already happened– Jesus was humiliated, but conquered through resurrection; and actually we are in the second time – and Jesus will come and will reign in the world with all of His Glory. Therefore, in our principle role as intercessors and proclaimors: “Jesus Christ is the Lord!” He always was: He came the first time, humbled himself and accepted to be humiliated. He offered himself in sacrifice for the souls of sinners and died on the cross. But now, He will come to be Lord.He will come to be Jesus, the Lord that saves, to be the Christ, the Messiah, the One hoped for.

God Bless You!
