What need I more?. ( John 1 v 1 - 3)

 One of the readings in our Kings coronation was Colossians 1 v 15 - 20,it was read by our Prime minister , it reveals to us wonderful truths about Jesus,His being,His power,His purpose.There were those who were troubling the Christian church in Colossae, saying  that they needed more than Christ,but they are told ,when we have Christ our needs are fully met,beware of those who say you need more, so here is what Paul wrote.

                         'The Son is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn over all creation.

                          For in Him all things were created; things in heaven and on earth, visible

                          and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities;all things 

                          have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in

                          Him all things hold together. And He is head of the body the church;He is 

                          the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything

                          He mighty have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all His fullness

                          dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile  to Himself  all things, whether

                          things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through  His blood, shed

                          on the cross'.

                                                            'Hallelujah !what a Saviour!'
