Jesus is Lord of All!

Jesus Christ is Lord Over All – Rom 9:4-5

Vs 4 – Israel has had so many blessings.  Adoption as sons, divine glory, the covenants, they received the Law, they had temple worship and all the promises.  This was Israel’s privilege and blessing.

Vs 5 -  Israel had the Patriarch’s, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  From them the human ancestry of Jesus can be traced.  Paul then makes a declaration, “Jesus Christ is God over all, forever praised. Amen.”  If anyone had any doubt of the deity of Christ this statement makes it clear.  Jesus Christ is God over all, forever amen.  When Jesus is Lord of all it shows in our actions, thoughts and words.  Jesus needs not only to be Savior but Lord as well.  Amen is the final point, nothing needs to be added or taken away.
