Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.
~ Ephesians 1:21Each country has a king, president or other ruler who has greater authority than anyone else in that country. Usually, the tradition is that he uses his signature to give legal authority to the government’s laws and declarations. It is his name, therefore, that causes everyone to recognize his power, authority and honour. His name has greater authority than any other name in that country.
God the Father has given to Christ, his Son, that kind of power and authority over all things (Matthew 28:18; see also Psalms 2 and 110). So, Revelation 19:16 calls him the ‘King of kings’; in other words, the King who has authority over all kings and rulers. Of course not everyone accepts his authority now, but in the future, all people will give him honour (Philippians 2:9-11).
