    While on earth, Jesus fulfilled the office of the [[Prophet]].  From the Day of Pentecost, Jesus has fulfilled the office of the [[Priest]].  When Jesus returns to the Jews, he will come in the office of the [[King]].  This does not mean that Jesus is not the King right now, but just as David waited patiently for the LORD to establish him above all other Kings of Israel, so Jesus, as the [[Son of David]], is waiting for the LORD to establish him above all other Kings of the Earth.

    ==Commentary by William Branham==
    ===Three comings of Christ===
    :''On earth He was a Prophet; in glory He's a Priest; coming, He's a King. Oh. I like that: Prophet, faithful Witness of the Word; Priest, with His own Blood before God; King, King of saints, not king of the world now; He's King of saints. We have earthly kings over them people. But we have a King too and a Kingdom. That's the reason we act different.''

    ===Rights to the Son of David===
    :''This Jew got what he asked for 'cause he approached him in the Name of the Son of David, the king; He wasn't Saviour, but He was King. But when the Greek woman, the Syrophenician approached Him in the Name of Son of David, He never even as much as raised His head. She had no claims on Him in the Name of Son of David. He wasn't Son of David to that Syrophenician woman. But when she said, "Lord," then He turned around. He was the Lord. See? Lord, he was Lord, no son of David to her.
    ::Sermon: The Trial, Tampa, FL, April 19, 1964
    ===Prophecy of Christ the King===
    :''No doubt, David didn't know what he was doing; walked up the same Mount of Olives there, and looked down, weeping, a rejected king. Where a few hundred years after that, Jesus Christ set on the same mountain, the Son of David, weeping as a rejected King, and they spit on Him also. You see, all these things just portrayed Christ. He was a part of it. God doesn't change. His nature doesn't change. His character doesn't change. He's still the Word (See?), and Malachi 3:6 proves that.''
    ::Sermon: Identified Christ of all ages, Topeka, KS, June 17, 1964
    ===Eternal King, Eternal Kingdom===
    :''Notice, the eighth day Jesus raised for our justification, the eternal King with the eternal Kingdom, to be baptized into, to Eternal Life. Not seven days; had nothing to do with any of the days. It's speaking of another eternal coming; speaking of an eternal time--the world that I'm speaking of.''

    JOHN 18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Amen.
