But saying true words in love, may come to full growth in him, who is the head, even Christ;

And as the church is under Christ's authority, so let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things.

And he is the head of the body, the church: the starting point of all things, the first to come again from the dead; so that in all things he might have the chief place.
