Episode Details

Paul’s declaration in Colossians 2:10 “Ye are complete in him” teaches that true human fulfillment is impossible apart from Jesus Christ, the true and last Adam in whom a new humanity is formed. Our potential, our identity, and our wholeness all flow from union with Him. But Paul goes further: Christ is also “the head of all principality and power,” the rightful ruler over every sphere individuals, families, churches, schools, governments, and all institutions. Since all things were made by Him, nothing lies outside His jurisdiction; leaving the church building does not place us outside Christ’s rule. There can be no completeness for a person, a family, a nation, or a society apart from His authority. Only under His reign do we find peace, order, and the fullness for which we were created.
