Back to Study the Book of Ephesians
Back to Chapter Four......
Captivity.
By the power of His ascension to the right hand of the Father, the mighty Christ made every imprisoning power His prisoner, Christ bound every power that has the power to bind. He took dominion over every authority and power in the universe. He is the undefeated Conqueror.
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death (Revelation 1:18).
Anyone who possesses the keys of a prison is the master of that prison. He comes and goes as he will, and everyone else comes and goes according to the will of the possessor of the keys.
So it is with Hell and death. The conquering Christ possesses the keys of Hell and death. Hell and death hold mankind captive. Christ holds Hell and death captive. Truly, Christ possesses all authority in Heaven and on the earth.
