rick:
New American Standard Bible Rom 14:11
For it is written, "AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD."

This includes all ,whom Christ said depart from me you workers of iniquity.

God bless.

Kat:

Here is another Scripture to add to what Rick posted.

Php 2:9  Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,
v. 10  that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,
v. 11  and that every tongue should confess (G1843) that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

G1843 exomologeō - confess - to acknowledge or (by implication of assent) agree fully: - confess, profess, promise.

I heard preachers say something like 'they will bow their knee or God will break them and make them'... I don't think that's the meaning of this Scripture, not at all. But there will come a time when all people will willingly confess from the heart that Christ is their Lord. There would be no point in lying about it, as God knows our hearts.

mercy, peace and love

Joel:
I think that facing the Almighty God and Savior will melt the hardest heart, and soften the toughest hide of any man that has ever lived.
