Subject: Christ's Return - 1 Corinthians 15-16

1 Corinthians 15:24 (ESV Strong's)
Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power.

Subject:  Christ's Return

The purpose of Christ's death, burial and resurrection was to crush death, bring life and put all things under God's authority.   As the above verse states the end comes when Christ presents all things to God as the Kingdom of God is secured.  Since Christ defeated all the enemies of God (death being the primary enemy ... The wages of sin is "death"), He will present to God the "Kingdom."   To make that presentation of the Kingdom, Christ will "destroy" EVERY rule and EVERY authority and power.   The power of sin over our lives:  DESTROYED!   The power of Satan in our lives:  DESTROYED!   The power of corrupt little leaders in this world:  DESTROYED!  For those who believe Christ is all LOVE, they need to see this verse that indicates the judgment of Christ.  Any rule that attempts to defeat Christ or hinder Christ will be destroyed.   That is the end!
