JESUS CHRIST It is he that is the head for the Church,1 and shall appear so hereafter further then now he doth. The Church is not a headless multitude, it is a community of Saints that hath a glorious Head. That body cannot be contemptible that hath a Head so honourable. It is he that is the brightness of the glory of his Father, in whom all fullness dwelleth, yea, the fullness of the Godhead bodily. It is he by whom all things consists, that is the beginning of all things, he that is the head of Angels themselves, Col. 2. 10. You are complete in him which is the head of all principality & power.
