The King of Kings: Wisdom from Proverbs and the Reign of Christ

In this episode of the Legacy Bible Podcast, we reflect on Proverbs and the powerful imagery of kingship throughout Scripture. Earthly kings wielded absolute authority—sometimes for good, sometimes for evil. But what do these ancient truths reveal about the ultimate King, Jesus Christ?

From Proverbs to Revelation, this message explores God’s absolute authority, His throne established in righteousness and mercy, and the hope of eternal life through Christ’s sacrifice. Whether facing the fearsome authority of a lion-like king or the tender mercy of the Lamb, we are reminded that Jesus reigns as King of kings and Lord of lords—and He desires to reign in our daily lives today.
