Philippians 1, 2 — John Thomas

Every tongue confess

by John Thomas

With reference to Philippians 2:11—Jesus spoke these things to persons then living, and while the genealogies of the families of the land were in existence, which is not now the case. The families and houses named by Zechariah cannot now be defined, hence the resurrection of the dead belonging to those houses is implied. To some of these families it was said by apostles, "to this end the Anointed One both died, and rose, and lived again, that he might rule over both dead and living ones. For we shall all stand before the tribunal of the Anointed One. For it is written, As I live, saith YAHWEH, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to the Deity ... that Jesus Anointed is Lord, to the glory of Deity the Father"(Phil. 2:11). "So then every one of us shall give account of himself to the Deity" (Rom. 14:9-12) "that we may receive again through the body the things according to which he practised, whether good or bad" (2 Cor. 5:10).
