5 Bible Verses about Church, Christ Authority Over

built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus Himself as the cornerstone.

So honor will come to you who believe, but for the unbelieving,

The stone that the builders rejected—
this One has become the cornerstone,

For no one can lay any other foundation than what has been laid down. That foundation is Jesus Christ.

He is also the head of the body, the church;
He is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead,
so that He might come to have
first place in everything.

He doesn’t hold on to the head, from whom the whole body, nourished and held together by its ligaments and tendons, develops with growth from God.
