"Then comes the end when he delivers the kingdom to God," 1 Corinthians 15:24.
Who's the he who's delivering the kingdom? Christ. To whom delivereth he it? To God. When does God take delivery of the kingdom? At the end. Ok, but at the end of what? At the end of Christ's reign. Good grief, OK!, but, Come on!, when is that? When every other rule, authority, power, enemy, yes, and death itself, is thoroughly under Jesus' full and absolute control. Yeah, under his feet. Christ has got to reign to the end. Got to? Yes. Really? Who died and made him king? He did. Die. And God did. Make him. When? When God woke him up from the grave and charged him with life. Sky kingdom.
We're excited to visit with a brother or sister today! We can share the good news of Jesus' victories with great expectations. And, together, we give thanks as we wait for the delivery.
