A   ¹⁵ He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, ¹⁶ for by Him were created all things in the heavens and on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities; all things through Him and to Him have been created. ¹⁷ And He alone is before all things and all things in Him hold together. 

B   ¹⁸ And He alone is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that He alone might become in all things preeminent, ¹⁹ for in Him all the fullness chose to dwell, ²⁰ and through Him to reconcile all things to Him,

C  making peace through the blood of His cross, through Him, whether the things on the earth or the things in the heavens.

B’   ²¹ And you, once being alienated and enemies in mind in works that are evil, He has now reconciled ²² in the body of His flesh through death to present you holy and unblemished and blameless before Him,

A’   ²³ if indeed you persevere in the faith, having been established and steadfast and not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which was proclaimed in all creation that in under heaven, of which I became, I, Paul, a minister.

A:  “All Creation,” God over all, the Gospel in all.  

B:  Jesus, the Head of the Body because of the death of His body.  

C: Made Peace!
