John Gill expounds on the kingly office of Christ, emphasizing that He reigns both by nature as God and by office as Mediator. Christ's kingdom is universal, encompassing all creation, and He exercises authority over both good and evil beings. His reign is characterized by righteousness, peace, and the gradual expansion of His spiritual kingdom, which is established through the ministry of the Word and the work of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of believers. Gill highlights that Christ's kingdom is everlasting, with no end, and will ultimately culminate in His glorious reign over all creation.

Robert Murray M'Cheyne emphasizes the ultimate authority of Christ as the King of kings and Lord of lords, highlighting the final conflict between Christ and the world regarding His kingly office. He discusses the three crowns Christ wears: His mediatorial crown over all creation, His crown over the visible Church, and His crown over the redeemed. M'Cheyne reassures believers of Christ's sovereignty and power, which brings comfort, while warning the unrepentant of the consequences of opposing Him. He calls for a defense of Christ's kingly authority, especially in the face of modern challenges to His rule. The sermon serves as a reminder of the importance of recognizing Christ's dominion in all aspects of life.
