Four things are said of the bowing of the knee to Him. One is that it\u00a0is being done by everyone <em>in heaven<\/em>. He is so high up. The Psalms says He has to stoop down to look into the heavens. What else could the heavenly inhabitants do but bow the knee? He says that <em>all in earth<\/em> will bow the knee to Him. It is certainly not true of every earthly creature now, but it will soon be that every knee shall bow. We are told <em>all in hell<\/em> will bow the knee.The Hitler&#8217;s, Stalin&#8217;s and wicked of all the ages\u00a0are\u00a0\u00a0bowing \u00a0the knee. The fourth thought is there will be a <em>universal confession that Jesus Christ is LORD<\/em> to the glory of the Father.
