Who Controls the Kings of the Gentiles?

Who pulls the strings of the pagan kings? Jesus gives us the answer in Luke 22:25.

Who is the Greatest?

24 And there was also a strife among the disciples, which of them should be accounted the greatest. 25 And Jesus said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. 26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

Luke 22:25
