Every Knee Will Bow

"For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 2:9-11

A time is coming when Jesus will be properly recognized by everyone. At HIs return, the name "Jesus" will be proclaimed and all will confess that He is Lord, and all will bow down to Him. Some will do so with great joy, and others in deep grief. The joyful will finally see the Lord of their salvation and receive their eternal reward. The grieving will see the Lord they rejected all their life and weep at their judgment. "How will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?" (Hebrew 2:3). "Today if you hear HIs voice, do not harden your heart" (Hebrew 3:7). "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Romans 10:13). “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" (John 3:16).
