Rom. 14:11, “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
Rom. 14:11 Msg., “Read it for yourself in Scripture, “As I live and breathe,” God says, “every knee will bow before me; Every tongue will tell the honest truth that I and only I am God.”
For; Rom. 10:13, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
1Cor. 12:3, “…and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.”
Considering the above scriptures, and if scriptures be what they should be, can we say there will ever be a soul that will not finally submit to the rule of God on the earth at the END OF ALL THINGS?
What do we really mean?
Eph. 1:10, “That in the dispensation of the fullness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him.”
Does God’s agenda for the earth, therefore, include all things that was lost in Adam being restored in Christ?
Is there anyway for us to imagine that the effect of Adam’s destruction can supersede that which Christ in His blood of redemption cannot restore?
For what ultimately is God’s mind for creation?
Msg. 1Cor. 15:27-28, “As the Psalmist said, “He laid them low, one and all; he walked all over them.” When Scripture says that “he walked all over them,” it’s obvious that he couldn’t at the same time be walked on. When everything and everyone is finally under God’s rule, the Son will step down, taking his place with everyone else, showing that God’s rule is absolutely comprehensive–a perfect ending!”
Amp. 1Cor. 15:28, “However, when everything is subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also subject Himself to [the Father] Who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all [be everything to everyone, supreme, the indwelling and controlling factor of life].”
God is the ultimate controlling factor of man’s life! Not some demons or principalities, etc.
For you see;
Ampl. Matt. 1:21, “She (Mary) will bear a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus [the Greek form of the Hebrew Joshua, which means Savior], for He will save His people from their sins [that is, prevent them from failing and missing the true end and scope of life, which is God].”
Meaning there is a perfect end of all that which the Father is doing; right?
And that end is that all should attain to the scope of life which is God.
The above scriptures seem to be challenging my theology, I don’t know about yours. But God’s Word seems to be true also.
Just pondering!
