Emperor Jesus?
While the terminology may be dated, it must be remembered that the Kingdom of God has an upside down hierarchy. The greatest are those who serve others today and those on the top of the heap today will be on the bottom in the coming kingdom. Today's poor await treasures in heaven while the earthly wealthy already have their reward.
And to me, a bit of poverty for the 70ish years one spends on earth is well worth the coming reward.
