11. THIS New Head, wherein God hath gathered up all things in Heaven and Earth into one; one Body, one Family, on whom is all their dependence, in whom they all now consist, is Jesus Christ the Son of God incarnate, see 1 Cor. 11. 3. Eph. 1. 21, 22, 23. This Glory was reserved for him; none other could be meet for it, or worthy of it, see Col. 1. 17, 18, 19, 20

12. TO answer all the Ends of this New Head of Gods recollected Family, all Power in Heaven and Earth, all Fullness of Grace and Glory, is committed unto him. There is no Communication from God, no Act of Rule towards this Family, no Supply of Virtue, Power, Grace or Goodness unto Angels or Men, but what is immediately from this New Head, whereinto they are gathered. In him they all consist, on him do they depend, unto him are they subject; in their Relation unto him doth their Peace, Union and Agreement among themselves consist. This is the Recapitulation of all things intended by the Apostle.
