John 6:15 (KJV)
“When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.”
They desired to take Him by force and to make Him King. First of all, to take Him by force and to make Him King would mean He was not King in the first place; it also means He becomes King as they forced it to be. In other words, He would have to become a King elected for their agenda, purposes, and intents. He is already the King of Glory! Psalm 24 exhorts us not to elect Him as King, not to force Him into our reasons to become King; we are exhorted to receive Him as King.
