Jesus Christ


He is the head of the body, the church.

His headship by appointment

Mark 12:10-11

10 Haven't you read this scripture: “‘the stone the builders rejected has become the capstone;
11 the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”

His headship by agreement

Colossians 2:9

For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,

His headship by arrangement

Ephesians 5:23

For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.

His headship by assignment

Ephesians 1:21-23

21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.

22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church,

23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

His headship by attainment

Colossians 2:10

And you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.

His headship by atonement

Colossians 1:18-20

18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him,

20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

His headship by announcement

1 Corinthians 11:3

Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
