“For He must reign, till He hath put all enemies under His feet” (1 Corinthians 15:25).
We saw yesterday that unbelievers in this world will sometimes overcome any difficulties between themselves in order to reject and get rid of the Lord Jesus. This is very sad, but we see from today’s verse that God is going to see to it that the Lord Jesus eventually has the first place. After He has come back and taken all the true believers home to be with Himself, He will then judge this world. That will be a very awful time, as all those who have rejected Him will be considered to be His enemies and will be punished.
When the Lord Jesus came into this world as a man, He presented Himself as the rightful King. He was rejected, but in our verse today it says that “He must reign.” He will come back in power and glory and take the place that was not given to Him nearly 2,000 years ago. It will be an awful time for those who have rejected Him, but you and I will be happy to see Him given the honor of which He is worthy.
