Is it Scriptural: Jesus Is Lord -Jack Kelley

Jesus Is Lord

Q. Is 1Corinthians 12:3 to be taken literally that NO ONE can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit?

 

A. I believe during the Church Age 1 Cor. 12:3 should be taken literally.  No one can sincerely say Jesus is Lord except by the Spirit because only born again believers want to have Jesus as their Lord.  Non believers don’t think He’s the Lord and in any case wouldn’t want Him to be.

But at the 2nd Coming, after they see Him return in glory to take command of planet Earth they’ll be forced to admit He’s the Lord of the whole Earth (Phil. 2:9-11, Zech. 14:9) even though they won’t have accepted Him as their Savior. This is why the people of Earth will mourn when they see Him coming on the clouds with power and great glory (Matt. 24:30).
