Psalm 92:10
Literally, “like a unicorn”, Jesus Christ, together with the lesser kings of Judea, are like monarchs, but they are not monarchs, and Judea is not a monarchy. Both Judea and its continuing kingdom, The Church, are Theocracies. Judea and The Church both have one king, but He is a Shepherd King, not an autocrat. The Shepherd King always rules in the fear of God the Father, hence it i...s not possible for Him to be a monarch. In 586 BC Judea ceased to be a Theocracy. In 33 AD The Church was instituted as a Theocracy, when her King, Jesus Christ was seated on the throne of David, by His resurrection from the dead, and proclaimed by the coming of the Holy Ghost at Pentecost. If Jesus cannot ever be a monarch, then neither can popes, hierarchs, magistrates, or human kings ever be monarchs. We would do well to remember this if we are ever elevated to any office. Offices are places of humiliation and servitude, they merely appear to be places of rule. The true officer must see himself as descending to serve in the fear of God, and not as ascending to reign without God.
