4 Bible Verses about Church Authority, Of Jesus Christ

for the husband is the head of the wife as Christ also (though he is the saviour of the Body) is the head of the church;

we are to hold by the truth, and by our love to grow up wholly into Him. For He, Christ, is the head, and under him,

as the church is subject to Christ, so wives are to be subject to their husbands in every respect.

Also, he is the head of the Body, that is, of the church, in virtue of his primacy as the first to be born from the dead ??that gives him pre-eminence over all.
