Spiritual Matters We Need to Know

Bible historians say Paul wrote 1 Corinthians around AD 55, during his third missionary journey, while ministering in Ephesus. You can see this from Acts 19:1—20:1 and with the epistle itself [16:8,9]. Paul started the church at Corinth during his second missionary journey [Acts 18:1–17] between AD 50 to 52, staying there for about 18 months.

Moving Ahead

Why do I remember, the past and my mistakes?
Why do I keep running back, where fear and worry takes
Me to where I don’t want, to go or ever live?
Now’s the time to take a stand, accepting all God gives!

The End

What is THE END of “the world”? The letter “D.” But we CAN know about our future.

1 Corinthians 15:22,23:
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s AT HIS COMING.

Christ is risen from death unto eternal life in a new spiritual body. We will someday receive a new spiritual body “fashioned like unto his glorious body” [Philippians 3:21]. Until then, we live for the Lord the best we can in this soul-based earthly body. Now what about “the end”?

1 Corinthians 15:24-28:
Then cometh THE END, when he [THE LORD JESUS] shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he [THE LORD JESUS] shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
For he [THE LORD JESUS] must reign, till he [THE LORD JESUS] hath put all enemies under his [THE LORD JESUS’] feet.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
For he [GOD, OUR FATHER] hath put all things under his [THE LORD JESUS’] feet. But when he [GOD, OUR FATHER] saith all things are put under him [THE LORD JESUS], it is manifest that he [GOD, OUR FATHER] is excepted, which did put all things under him [THE LORD JESUS].
And when all things shall be subdued unto him [THE LORD JESUS] , then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him [GOD, OUR FATHER] that put all things under him [THE LORD JESUS], that God may be all in all.

There a many pronouns here that are clear in the context. Here is what we know about the end:

1. Our Lord Jesus will deliver the kingdom to God, his Father.
2. Jesus will, with the Father’s authority and power, put “all things” under his feet. Psalms 110:1 prophecies that “The LORD [Hebrew Jehovah, meaning God] said unto my Lord [Hebrew adon, meaning the Messiah], Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
3. Jesus will destroy death, the final enemy, bringing eternal life as a reality to those who accept him.
4. God has given Jesus FULL LORDSHIP OVER ALL, and put everything under His Son’s feet.
5. Of course, God is excepted. HE is the One Who put all under Christ’s feet.
6. Jesus will subdue all things under himself.
7. Jesus will subject himself to his Father, Who put all things under His beloved Son.
8. God will be all in all. Revelation 7:10 says: “And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to OUR GOD which sitteth upon the throne, and unto THE LAMB.” The Father is enthroned above all. And our Savior, the Lamb, sits upon the throne of rulership and power with him.

Amen. I love you.
