The Supremacy of Christ

In light of recent attacks on the person of Christ we must be reminded of the glorious nature of the Biblical description of our Lord.

1. Christ and Creation - our Lord is described as

• the exact representation of God Himself
• supreme over all the created order
• the Creator and sustainer of all things that exist

2. Christ and the New Creation - our Lord is described as

• the One who creates a new race called Christians
• the One who rules and directs this new race
• the One who by His resurrection gives life to this new race
• the One who by His blood reconciles men to God
  This Christ is to be adored, obeyed, trusted to life and salvation
