In his literary classic, “The Once and Future King”, T.H. White gives what would become the most recognizable retelling of the Arthurian legend. The idea of a king who rises to power, faces betrayal, appears defeated but has hope of his return has to have its roots in the gospel account of Christ. In Jesus we find a King whose roots are traced back to the enthronement of David, whose sovereignty is eternal, and whose authority is unquestionable. In Acts 1 we experience his physical ascension and in a day yet to come we await his physical return!
