TL,
@330 you said concerning Eph 1:22
“Rather when we consider that Jesus is the source of everything to the Body, we then see the greatness of what Jesus did. After all, if Christ had not died on the cross we would not have salvation and would not be part of His Body. In this way ‘head over all things’ shows His preeminence, shows Christ as origin of all, shows Christ as the one through whom all things are provided, and the one who has everything we need.”
Are you saying that “head over all things to the church” means that Jesus is “the source of everything wonderful to the church”? So rather than “all things” meaning “the world” it means “everything wonderful”(like salvation)? This would make sense, but it would mean “all things” under his feet at the beginning of the verse would be a different “all things” that he is head over at the end of the verse. Any comments?
