Colossians 1:18

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Colossians 1:18. And he is the head of the body, the church:

He is joined by an indissoluble union to his people, and is the head of their glory, their wisdom, and their strength.

Colossians 1:18. Who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

Are we giving him the pre-eminence in all things? That theology must be false which puts Jesus in the second place, or even lower than that, and that experience is a wrong one which does not put Christ always in the front. He must in all things always stand first.
