How complete is Christ's authority during the thousand years?

During the thousand years, Christ's authority is absolute and complete. He reigns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and no Satanic power can oppose Him. Though Satan remains alive and bound, Christ exercises complete power and control until the thousand years finish and Satan is finally set away.

Les teaches that from the onset of Christ's rule and reign in the thousand years, He is absolute King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and there will be nothing of Satanic power to oppose Him. Satan is still alive and merely bound, not put away forever, so his final setting away cannot take place until the thousand years have finished. Paul was led by the Spirit to write that Christ must reign until He has put all enemies under His feet. At the end of the thousand years, Christ has been ruling and reigning in complete power and control, though Satan will be released once more to cause the nations to follow him and reject the sovereignty of the King and of God, until Satan is finally put away.
