When does the Son become subject to God in 1 Corinthians 15:28?
The Son becomes subject to God at a future point in time after all things have been subdued under Him, likely at the onset of eternity. This follows Christ's supreme rule over principalities, powers, kingdoms, and death, when He gives everything up to the Godhead so God may be all in all.
Les explains that 1 Corinthians 15:28 is mind-boggling, and because every word is the Word of God, it cannot be sloughed off. He points to the sequence: when all things shall be subdued unto Him, all principalities, powers, kingdoms, and even death come under Christ's supreme rule. After everything has been subdued unto Him, there is another time word—there is coming a point in time, whether at the onset of eternity, which Les thinks it is, when the Son also Himself shall be subject unto Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all. Les says that after He has put everything under Christ's feet and He has become all in all, yet a day is coming when even Christ will evidently give everything up to the Godhead. He adds that he must be careful because highly educated theologians listen to him, but he will not compromise.
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
