He
[Christ Jesus] humbled Himself and became obedient to deatheven
death on a cross! Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and
gave Him the name that is above every name, that AT THE NAME OF JESUS
EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH and under the earth, and
every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God
the Father.
Philippians
2:8-11.
Ever
since sin began, the devil has been slandering Gods character, accusing
Him of being unfair. But now all the questions are answered, all the perplexities
resolved. At the end, not even Satan himself, the great accuser, will
have a word to say in his own defense. Now every being in the universe
acknowledges that, even in judgment, especially in judgment, Jesus, the
Lamb of God, is worthy of our love and worship. A great chorus declares:
Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain (Revelation 5:12).
The whole plan and purpose of God is now fully revealed, and
Gods character
stands vindicated.
All
nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have
been revealed.
Revelation
15:4.
Then
I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and
on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: To Him who sits
on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power
for ever and ever!
Revelation
5:13.
Not only the saved, but also evil angels and Satan himself will confess
that Satans way has been wrong and that Gods ways are just
and true. All see that evil and selfishness has led only to unhappiness
and discontentthat such a life is not worth continuing.
