Genuine repentance is the contrite sinner's way to restoration by God. Psalm 51 gives the penitent sinner a correct view on approaching God for merciful pardon.
Governing authorities are accountable to God. When they stray from just judgment, the Lord is not pleased. Ruling authorities should know that God stands in their midst, and they should judge accordingly.
Scripture: Psalm 82
Throughout history, wicked kings and rulers have sought to overthrow God and Christ. This futile practice continues today; however, the Lord Jesus Christ reigns on the throne with all authority in heaven and on earth. This sermon exalts the Lord Jesus Christ, whose kingdom will remain unshaken.
