The Supremacy Of Christ

“HE IS the IMAGE OF the invisible GOD,

the firstborn over all creation.

For BY HIM ALL THINGS were CREATED…

that are in heaven and that are on earth,

visible and invisible,

whether thrones or dominions

or principalities or powers.

ALL THINGS were CREATED through HIM

And FOR HIM.

And HE IS BEFORE ALL THINGS,

and IN HIM all things consist.

And HE is the head of the body,

the Church,

who is the beginning,

the firstborn from the dead,

THAT IN ALL THINGS…

HE MAY HAVE the PREEMINENCE.”

[1]

“Therefore, whoever CONFESSES ME before men,

him I will also confess before MY FATHER…

who is in heaven.

But whoever denies ME before men,

him I will also deny before MY FATHER…

who is in heaven.

And he who does not take his CROSS…

And FOLLOW-after Me is NOT WORTHY of ME.

He who finds his life will lose it,

And he who LOSES his LIFE for MY SAKE…

WILL FIND IT.”

The supremacy of Christ is good news for those who love Him and profess Him, but very bad news for those who deny and defy Him. Where are you with Christ?
