Essentials to the Christian Life by Tim Cash
Lordship

Lordship - Jesus Christ is the authority and ruler over the life of the Christian. We are under new ownership. We can only enjoy abundant life when submitted to Jesus.

The Greek word for "Lord" is Kurios (Koo' ree-os) meaning...authority; controller; master; sir.

A.W. Tozer Said: "The Lord will not save those He cannot command. He will not divide his offices. You cannot believe on a half Christ. We take Him for what He is - the Anointed Savior and Lord who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords!"
