Christ is Lord in sundry respects.
1. As God, In regard of his divine nature. God said, I am the Lord, Exo▪ 6. 2. 2. As the Son of God, In regard of his Person; For of the Son in relation to the Father, it is said, The Lord rained fire from the Lord, Gen. 19. 24. 3. As God-man, In regard of the hypostatical union of Christs two Natures in one person; Thus saith Thomas to Christ on earth, My Lord and my God, Joh. 20. 28. 4. As King of the Church; In regard of that authority and dignity whereunto God hath advanced him; I have set my King upon my holy Hill of Zion, saith the Father to his Son, Psa. 2. 6. God hath made him both Lord and Christ, Act. 2. 36.
