So answer the question, is Christ the one who is ruling and currently putting his enemies under his feet?

He is the appointed head (to be). Not the head. The scripture you initiated is the one that says he is appointed to be, and not IS the head.

It's not hard to understand. God rules now over everything, including the Son. When God subordinates (in the future), Christ will then be the one who exercises the authority that is appointed to him. Whenever it comes time to exercise that authority, the scripture is merely clarifying...

Verse 22 says that God appointed/gave to him to be the head over everything by seating him at his right hand. That's like saying that J.D. Vance is appointed to run the USA. Yes he is, but he's not the one in charge. He's only the vice president. Jesus is God's number one vice president...

The apostle said that the DOTL comes in like a thief, and not sudden destruction coming in like a thief: 1Th 5:2-6 KJV 2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon...

2030 or 2033 (1000 years after resurrection date best guesses) seem to be a most logical choice for things to wrap up. Fall 2026 to spring 2027 could be a significant year too. All these years are why I believe his coming is near, but not imminent. Our duty is to not let our views of how...

Another mistake that I see people make, concerning the Olivet discourse, is when Jesus said this: Mat 24:15-21 KJV 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) .... 21 For then...

What Jesus said about "no man KNOWS the day or hour", has nothing to do with "the ballpark hour of His Return. It has to do so with the magnitude of events that the world will experience in the days preceding the time when his coming will then truly be imminent. It's not imminent now and...

Mat 24:33 KJV So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. The word 'see' (v.33) corresponds to the word watch, the context of the surrounding verses. When this subject is discussed, the oft quoted verse is, "no man KNOWS the day or hour, in...

They are those (of the church) who belong to Christ at his parousia. Just from the reading of Zech 14:5, it is not obvious who these saints are. There are many pieces of the puzzle of scripture that must be put together to reach that conclusion. To go into the details of which would be a...

I agree with most every thing that you wrote here (lol, especially the scriptures). But let me give you a scripture that transcends (is contrary to) most all eschatological viewpoints that would deepen all understandings if they could just grasp it. That is Zech 14. THAT is the real parousia...

I think the biggest thing that throws prophetic understanding awry, is the promise made to Abraham and his seed. Where people go wrong is they misunderstand that promise to be an... everlasting promise of possession. But it should be understood that it is a promise of everlasting possession...

We have discussed our differences. But what we haven't discussed is the basis for the differences we have discussed. What is that? It is the timing of the 7th Trumpet. You believe it sounds at the end of this final 7 years. I believe that Scripture teaches that it sounds in the middle...

You are so confused by what I say. The mystery IS the reality of the resurrection. WE SHALL ALL BE CHANGED. It's not ours or any Jews or Gentiles believing the gospel. It is the resurrection, the salvation of our souls. The PuP

The blessed hope is the glorious appearing of Jesus. Not a pretrib rapture. There is no timing element found in Titus 2, other than Jesus's appearing. That is the Pre-trib fallacy and is not what I promote. Be Blessed The PuP
