Bill > HJ22

This joint resolution is a formal declaration by the Montana State Legislature acknowledging Jesus Christ as the sovereign ruler over all nations, including the state of Montana. The resolution draws heavily on biblical passages from Matthew, Daniel, Psalms, and Revelation to assert Christ's divine authority and kingship, citing scriptural references that describe Christ as having power over heaven, earth, and all people. The resolution references Montana's state constitution, which begins with gratitude to "Almighty God," and uses this as a foundation for proclaiming Christ's spiritual and civil leadership. The primary operational components of the resolution include a formal acknowledgment of Christ's kingship with the stated hope of bringing liberty, discipline, peace, and harmony to the state, and a directive for the Secretary of State to distribute copies of the resolution to federally recognized tribal governments in Montana, the U.S. President, the Governor, and Montana's Congressional Delegation. While primarily symbolic, the resolution represents a significant theological and political statement about the state's understanding of divine governance.
