which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Christ has sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.  His kingship is a fait accompli; he is no mere candidate for the throne.  He is now ruling and shall continue to do so until all enemies are put under foot. Even this is not all.  Christ is King by right of conquest.  Through death he defeated Satan  (Hebrews 2:14).  He conquered death, hell and the grave. Yes, Christ is King by every conceivable right which men have recognized as the basis of such authority.
