1 Corinthians 11.2-3: Don't Run Around Headless

In this next section Paul begins to address the chaos that existed in the Corinthian church. He talks about the different authority relationships that exist between, God, Christ, husbands and wives. We are able to submit to authority simply because we are equal. The Son of God was God as much as the Father and the Spirit and yet Jesus showed submission to His Father. In that respect Jesus demonstrates 2 key things. Being equal does not imply that we are inferior nor does it deny the need to be subject to those God has put ‘over us. The head of Christ is God, the head of man is Christ and the head of the wife is the husband. Don’t be headless.
