How many kings can a kingdom have at one time? One. Hardly any exceptions. How many can be God at one time throughout the world and cosmos? One. There will be a time when Jesus’ rule makes him effectively God, even though the Father is in the background supporting him. We see this is Psalm 45/Hebrews 1 and 1 Corinthians 15, and Revelation 20. This is his reign as the Christ, anointed for it, the inheritance of the Son of God, judging all as Son of Man. It will last a thousand years, starting not too long from now. Then, after this time, he will show that it is truly the Father who is forever God, when he hands the kingdom over to the Father forever, from which time onwards the Father will have obvious status as God. Dubious? Wait and see. Some alive today will live to see it. Others will rise from the dead to be part of it. Come Lord Jesus.
