Already celebrations are underway for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth.
What a magnificent monarch she has been. When she was crowned in Westminster Abbey in 1952 she was anointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, representing 'The Lords Spiritual" in the realm of England. He then placed the priceless royal crown upon her head.
Her participation in that centuries old ritual represented her submission to Jesus Christ as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Here is a picture of HIS coronation in Pilate's courtyard; a crown of thorns, a sceptre of reeds and the mockery of his "lords in waiting"
The marvel of these two monarchs,Elizabeth 2 and the Lord Jesus Christ, is that they have lived and reigned in harmony in the realm of England for sixty years. Him as monarch supreme and her as Queen regent.
May it continue to be for many years to come.
