1 Corinthians 15:25-27
EasyEnglish Bible
25 Christ himself must rule as king until he has won against all his enemies. 26 The last enemy that he must destroy is death. 27 It says in the Bible, ‘God has put all things under his authority.’[a]
But it is clear that the words ‘all things’ do not include God himself. No, because it is God who put all things under Christ's authority.
