Colossians 1:18 in context

  1. 16for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him;
  2. 17and he is before all things, and in him all things consist.
  3. 18And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
  4. 19For it was the good pleasure of the Father that in him should all the fulness dwell;
  5. 20and through him to reconcile all things unto himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say, whether things upon the earth, or things in the heavens.
