Chapter Forty-One/God's Day of Judgment-It's Joyful Outcome -The End of Death and Hades - Concusion

 Thus, the program that the apostle Paul describe3s in his letter to the Corinthians will come to completion: "For [Jesus] must rule as king until God has put all his enemies under his feet. As the last enemy, [Adamic] death is to be brought to nothing." What happens next? "When all things will have been subjected to him, the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him." In other words, Jesus "hands over the kingdom to the God and Father." (1 Corinthians 15:24-28) Yes, Jesus, having conquered Adamic death through the merit of his ransom sacrifice, will hand over a perfected human family to his Father," Jehovah is evidently at this point, at the end of the thousand years, that Satan is released and the final test takes place to determine whose names will remain permanently recorded in the scroll of life. "Exert yourselves vigorously" so that your name may be among them! - LUKE13:24; REVELATION 20:5.
