The Wisdom of God
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and
gave him to be THE HEAD OVER ALL THINGS
to the church.
God not only gave Jesus a Name which is above
every name, but at the Name of Jesus every being in all
three worlds—Heaven, earth, and hell—must bow and
confess Jesus' Lordship and dominion. God also seated
Jesus in the highest position in the universe, at His
own right hand, and made Him head over all things
(v.22).
These verses don't say, "God raised Jesus from the
dead and set Him above all principality, power, might,
and dominion." They say that God set Jesus "far above"
all principality, power, might, dominion, and every
name that is named.
Your Position in Christ
How does Jesus' seating in the highest position in
the universe affect you, the believer? What is your
position because you're in Christ?
EPHESIANS 2:1,2,4-6
1 And you hath he quickened [made alive], who
were dead [spiritually dead] in trespasses and
sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to
the course of this world, according to the prince
of the power of the air [the dethroned powers],
the spirit that now worketh in the children of
disobedience:...
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great
love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, HATH
QUICKENED US TOGETHER WITH CHRIST,
(by grace ye are saved;)
