Colossians 1:14-18
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by 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 might have the preeminence.
Christ is the reason for our salvation. He is the beginning and the end. He is the one that will give us grace, the one that will show us mercy. He is the one that is in charge of his church. He is the head and the corner stone. Without Christ and his gospel, there would be no salvation. Let us follow his plan.
