Submitting (Part 1)
1 Corinthians 15:22-25
These verses conclusively reveal that others will be called besides us, until Christ defeats all enemies of God's rule. Because every person who has conformed to the image of Satan is an enemy, God will eventually call all of mankind and confront each one about who their sovereign is! As Satan has deceived "the whole world" (Revelation 12:9), so in His time will God call the whole world.

The word hupotasso, translated "put under," literally means "subjected to," as rendered in the Revised Standard Version and Revised English Version. These bookends can be summarized as, in the beginning, God, and at the end, God. God started it, and when it is complete, God will be all in all. All rule, authority, and power will be yielded to Him. Every knee will have bowed to Him and every tongue will have confessed, or they will cease to exist.
