**Luke 20:44** — *"Thus David calls Him 'Lord.' So how can He be David's son?"*
Jesus pressed the religious scholars with a riddle they could not escape. Psalm 110 was David's own pen — and David called his future descendant *Lord*. A son does not call his father Lord. A subject calls his king Lord.
This is not wordplay. This is the hinge of everything.
Jesus was not merely born into David's lineage — He existed *before* it. The covenant promise of a coming king was never about a man elevated to greatness. It was about the Lord condescending into flesh, entering the very family line He had ordained.
David's Lord. David's son. Both. Fully.
Scripture reminds us that what the mind cannot reconcile, faith receives as gift — the eternal stepping into time, the King becoming kin.
Let us reflect on what it means to call Him both Savior and sovereign — and whether our lives testify to that weight.
