The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Age of Reconciliation, #15
And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (Ephesians 1:19-21)
The Scriptures are very clear that the member of the Body of Christ is far above all rulers and authorities in the spirit realm.
Notice our position as saints:
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us [made us alive] together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ: (Ephesians 2:5,6)
The days ahead of us will be the most momentous of earth's history. The tares of Satan will come to maturity. The wheat of Christ will come to maturity. Spiritual titans will face each other in a conflict that has only one conclusion. The angels of God will come and remove the wicked from among the righteous. Then the righteous shall shine as the sun in the Kingdom of their Father.
There is no security in the heavens, on the earth, on the sea, or in the dark regions beneath the surface of the earth. All shall be shaken by the Father as He arises to avenge Himself of all rebellion, all sin against His eternal moral laws.
The righteous will run into the Lord and be safe. Christ, and Christ alone, will be the Rock that will stand when all else has been removed. God has purposed to make Christ the Center and the Circumference of all the creation.
That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: (Ephesians 1:10)
Every personage, angelic and human, will bow the knee to the Lord Jesus Christ. Every tongue will proclaim Him Lord. All shall be subject to Him. When all has been made subject to the Lord Jesus, the Lord Jesus shall be subject to the Father that the Father may be All and in all.
This is the total reconciliation that has been planned since the time the angels rebelled. This does not mean, as some erroneously are teaching, that eventually Satan will be reconciled to God. The wrath of God, including its expression in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, is nonredemptive. In that lake the unrighteous remain unrighteous and the filthy remain filthy. There will be both angels and people in the Lake of Fire. According to the Scriptures they will remain there for the eternity of eternities. This is what it means to be "lost."
The age of reconciliation has begun and will continue until the conclusion of the thousand-year Kingdom Age. All who are "saved" will have a portion of Christ in them and will grow toward perfect reconciliation to the Father.
There never again will be a rebellion against the Father because the Lord Jesus Christ will be standing guard in and with His brothers throughout the creation of God.
And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. (Revelation 22:5) (from The Age of Reconciliation)
