Colossians 1:15-20

ACV(i) 15 who is an image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 Because in him all things were created, things in the heavens and things upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or lordships or principal offices or positions of authority, all things have been created through him, and for him. 17 And he is before all, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might become preeminent in all things. 19 Because in him it was considered good for all the fullness to dwell, 20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross, through him whether things upon the earth or things in the heavens.
