What about Heb. 2:8 . . .putting everything in subjection under his feet. Now in putting everything in subjection to him,, he left nothing outside his control.. At present, we do not see everything in subjection to him..
Prayer for Spiritual Wisdom Ephesians 1:
15Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19And what
is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set
him at his own right hand in the heavenly
places,
21Far 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:
22And hath put all
things under his feet, and gave him
to be the head over all
things to the church,
23Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Verse 22.
And 1 Cor. 15:25, 26 For He must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. Has death been destroyed?
Yes. Jesus Christ raised from the dead. Allowing people to become spiritually alive being reborn again by the spirit. All of are going to experience death no matter who they are, everyone has to die to go be with God, as our natural bodies can not dwell with him.
Who has the power of death? Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil. Heb. 2:14. The devil has not been destroyed - his power over us has been destroyed.
The Devil - He is taken care of in Revelation 20. I believe he has been done away with forever.
