It is written somewhere in the Scriptures,

“Why is man important to you?
    Why do you take care of the son of man?[a]

    But you crowned him with glory and honor.
    You put all things under his control.” Psalm 8:4-6

If God put everything under his control, there was nothing left that he did not rule. But we do not yet see him ruling over everything.
