5 Bible Verses about Church Authority, Of Jesus Christ

For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.

And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church,

but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ,

But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.

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.
