"The Chosen King of the Lord"

PSALMS 110 [A Psalm of David.]

 Speaking of restoration, within this Psalm we have all the attributes of Christ; every single one of these seven verses is attributed to Jesus and His authority, humility, and exaltation. In most all of the Psalms I have marked the verses that speak of Jesus with a red 'x' to show what they are; but in all honesty, I can make almost every verse in the Bible speak of Jesus, in one way or another. Even Jesus said it Himself, "Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they that speak of me." (John 5:39) I get a kick listening to Dr. Chuck; there is hardly a single message that does not involve the Gospel being brought out, no matter where in the Scriptures he is teaching from. As it should be. From the very first verse of Genesis, by which John's gospel shows the eternalness of Christ; to the very last verse of the Book of Revelation, "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen." Jesus is the volume of the Book! This is important for us to understand because there are so many different factors in the world that want to say otherwise; even those within certain sections or areas within the church. We must not ever minimize who Jesus is, what He has done, and why He had to do it; it is only by the blood of Jesus Christ that we are saved! There is no other way! I know that is not politically correct; in some churches, they make it out to not be Biblically correct. My choice to say that it is, is not based upon what I have heard others say, it is based upon what Jesus Christ has said, and there are only two ways to view what He has said: He was either lying or He told the truth. Interesting enough, He rose from the dead, so I am going to go with truth...

"In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it." (John 1:1-5) NLT
