JESUS is HEAD of the CHURCH

 

Ephesians 5:27

King James Version

27 That he might present it to himself 

a glorious church, 

not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; 

but that it should be holy and without blemish.


The true born again worships JESUS.

For He is head of the church.

What verses testify of this?

Here's where SPIRIT led me:

Matthew 28:18-20

King James Version

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying

All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19 Go ye therefore, 

and teach all nations, 

baptizing them in the name of the Father, 

and of the Son, 

and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things 

whatsoever I have commanded you: 

and, lo, 

I am with you always, 

even unto the end of the world. 

Amen.


Ephesians 1:20-23

King James Version

20 Which he wrought in Christ, 

when he raised him from the dead, 

and set him at his own right hand 

in the heavenly places,

21 Far above all principality, 

and power, 

and might, 

and dominion, 

and every name that is named, 

not only in this world, 

but also in that which is to come:

22 And hath put all things under his feet, 

and gave him to be the head 

over all things to the church,

23 Which is his body, 

the fulness of him that filleth all in all.


Ephesians 5:23

King James Version

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, 

even as Christ is the head of the church: 

and he is the saviour of the body.


Colossians 1:18

King James Version

18 And he is the head of the body, 

the church: 

who is the beginning, 

the firstborn from the dead; 

that in all things he might have the preeminence.


1 Corinthians 11:3

King James Version

3 But I would have you know, 

that the head of every man is Christ; 

and the head of the woman is the man

and the head of Christ is God.


1 Corinthians 1:10

King James Version

10 Now I beseech you, brethren

by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

that ye all speak the same thing, 

and that there be no divisions among you; 

but that ye be perfectly joined together 

in the same mind and in the same judgment.


Colossians 2:10

King James Version

10 And ye are complete in him, 

which is the head of all principality 

and power:


1 Corinthians 6:19-20

King James Version

19 What? 

know ye not that your body 

is the temple of the Holy Ghost 

which is in you

which ye have of God, 

and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: 

therefore glorify God in your body, 

and in your spirit, 

which are God's.


1 Corinthians 12:12

King James Version

12 For as the body is one, 

and hath many members, 

and all the members of that one body, 

being many, 

are one body: 

so also is Christ.


Ephesians 2:10

King James Version

10 For we are his workmanship

created in Christ Jesus unto good works, 

which God hath before ordained 

that we should walk in them.


Ephesians 2:14-22

King James Version

14 For he is our peace, 

who hath made both one, 

and hath broken down 

the middle wall of partition between us;

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, 

even the law of commandments 

contained in ordinances; 

for to make in himself of twain one new man, 

so making peace;

16 And that he might reconcile both unto God 

in one body by the cross, 

having slain the enmity thereby:

17 And came and preached peace to you 

which were afar off, 

and to them that were nigh.

18 For through him we both have access 

by one Spirit unto the Father.

19 Now therefore ye are no more 

strangers and foreigners, 

but fellowcitizens with the saints, 

and of the household of God;

20 And are built upon the foundation 

of the apostles and prophets

Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together 

groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

22 In whom ye also are builded together 

for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
