Which gods are included in the 'every name that is named' that Christ is far above in Ephesians 1?
The 'every name that is named' includes all the gods of mythology, all the gods of the Far Eastern religions, all the gods of the New Agers, and all the gods of whatever one can dream of. Christ is far above every principality, power, might, dominion, and every such name, in this world and the world to come.
Les teaches that this list of names encompasses all the gods of mythology, the Far Eastern religions, the New Agers, and any god a person could dream of. He emphasizes that Christ will be far above and beyond them all. The passage says this includes every name named not only in this world but also in the world to come. Les connects this to God putting all things under Christ's feet, a picture of total dominion over His enemies, and to God giving Him to be head over all things to the Church, which is His body.
Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
