Bible Question: How did Christ obtain the church |
Bible Answer: Hello Gomer, I think a couple of passages should help to establish His authority- Matt 28:18- And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth." (NASB) Col 1:18 - "He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything." (NASB) BradK |
