\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus is the Lord of Mankind and Angels<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

2 Timothy 4:1<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

I solemnly charge you <\/i>in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus,<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His<\/span> appearing and His kingdom: NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The fact that Jesus is the Lord over all intelligent beings in creation is clearly seen in Scripture. Jesus is held forth as possessing all authority and judgment for the express purpose that all mankind may honor Him.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

John 5:22-23<\/span><\/b> – 22 <\/b>"For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son, 23 in order that all may honor the Son<\/span><\/b>, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

He is clearly seen in the New Testament as having power over every angel, authority and dominion forever.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1 Peter 3:22<\/span><\/b> – Jesus Christ, 22 <\/span><\/b>who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, after angels and authorities and powers had been subjected to Him.<\/span><\/b> NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ephesians 1:21-22<\/span><\/b> – 21 <\/span>far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named<\/span><\/b>, not only in this age, but also in the one to come. 22 and He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things<\/span><\/b> to the church, NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Scripture makes emphatic statements about His authority over all things even going so far as to say that the eternal destiny of mankind, whether they have life after death, or perish in under God’s wrath forever, all hinge on their obedience to Him.<\/span><\/p>\n

John 3:35-36<\/span><\/b> – 35 <\/span><\/b>"The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand<\/b>. 36 <\/span><\/b>"He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son shall not see life<\/span><\/b>, but the wrath of God abides on him." NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The New Testament describes the fact that eventually all created intelligent beings will one Day give allegiance to Christ and verbally confess His Lordship over them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Philippians 2:9-11<\/span><\/b> 9 <\/span><\/b>Therefore also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,<\/span><\/b> 10 <\/span><\/b>that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, <\/span>of those who are in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, 11 <\/span><\/b>and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The fact of the matter is, Jesus is Lord whether one recognizes it or not. Just because one has not submitted their life to Him, does not mean that one is not accountable to Him. For He will come to judge every person for the deeds done in the body, as the gospel declares. And He alone possesses the authority to determine one’s eternal destiny. Ultimately, every person that has ever lived will bow their knee before Jesus Christ and acknowledge Him as the Lord.<\/i><\/b> That day will either be a day of glorious celebration for the faithful, or day of shocking terror for the wicked and unbelieving.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2 Timothy 4:1<\/span><\/b> – I solemnly charge you <\/i>in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead<\/span><\/b>, and by His<\/span> appearing and His kingdom: NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Matthew 16:26-27<\/span><\/b> – 26 <\/b>"For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 <\/b>"For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and will then recompense every man according to his deeds<\/span><\/b>. <\/span>\u00a0NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Dear reader, if you have never acknowledged Jesus as the Lord of your life, today is the day! You are not guaranteed tomorrow, and there will be no second chances on the other side of the grave.<\/i><\/b> Turn from your sins and believe on the Lord Jesus, and He will give you eternal life! Reject Him and pay the wages of your sin, which is death, eternal separation from God and everything that is good.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

John 3:18<\/span><\/b> – 18 <\/b>"He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already<\/span><\/b>, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Matthew 13:41-43<\/span><\/b> – 41"The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, 42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire<\/span><\/b>; in that place there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 <\/b>"Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear. NASB<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The door of God’s free grace and mercy is now wide open awaiting for you to walk through and be forgiven! Come to Christ in repentance and faith and be saved!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
