By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles,
even all the judges of the earth (Spreuke 8:15-16)
All things, that are in the Heavens and on the earth, are created by the Word. He has created visible and invisible thrones, dominion, Owerhede, and powers in heaven and in earth. Everything is created by Him, en vir Hom.
Want deur Hom is alle dinge geskape, wat in die hemel is, en wat op aarde is, sigbaar en onsigbaar, of hulle trone is, of heerskappye, of owerhede, of magte: alle dinge is deur Hom geskep, en vir Hom (Col 1:16)
Jesus reigns in heaven and on earth.
When Jesus was brought to Pilate, he told Jesus that he had power to crucify Him and to let Him go. But Jesus knew, Whom had given Him this power and He knew that without God Pilate couldn’t do anything.
Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee? Jesus het geantwoord, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above (Jn 19:10-11)
He has appointed kings, princes, nobles, judges etc on this earth. Everything is in His hands.
‘Wees die sout van die aarde’
