    Col.2.9-10 "Complete" (1 of 2)

    "For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily./And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:"

    God is a Spirit and when the word of God says, Christ 'is the head of all principality and power' it refers specifically to the World of the Spirit. Head of all principalities and power refers to the Son,'his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;/ Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power. This power of the Word consequently has a body, which we shall call as the substance. So the Psalmist says,"My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth./ Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them." In an earlier post we covered this topic. Holy Spirit is referring to the Father Son relationship where substance has a body which whether as an atom or as a world is considered cannot change in quality. It is the Power of the word. So God sends forth his word and it refers to the Father Son relationship and the quality we call as faith.(Heb.1.2-3;Ps.139.15-16)

    "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." We shall consider faith and how it works does not change since God , a Spirit does not change. Thus two atoms of hydrogen latches on to one atom of oxygen, you have water. Faith works at molecular level; so it does in terms of worlds. It is what we see here:"Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear." Father Son relationship on one part with this natural world works on the basis of the word. Faith makes one world, which is the world of the Spirit.
