1 Corinthians 15:25-28 - For he must rule as king until God has put all enemies under his feet. 26 And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing. 27 For God ‘subjected all things under his feet.’ But when he says that ‘all things have been subjected,’ it is evident that this does not include the One who subjected all things to him. 28 But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone. . .
If death is the last enemy and if Jesus cannot begin his rule until all enemies have been subjected to him and if he then subjects himself to God, when exactly does he rule as king?
