God created the whole universe through him and for him. Christ existed before all things, and in union with him all things have their proper place. He is the head of the body, the church; he is the source of the body’s life. He is the first-born Son, who was raised from death, in order that he alone might have the first place in all things. For it was by God’s own decision that the Son has in himself the full nature of God.”
