Jesus, the Christ: Names, Appellations, and Titles of: Head of the Ekklesia (Body)

And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church,

…which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior.

And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and firstborn from among the dead, so that in all things He may have preeminence.

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions for the sake of His body, which is the church.
