What the Bible says about Greatness of Christ
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Philippians 2:9 Jesus is not against greatness or having power, but He wants it to be given by God. God will give it to those who are in harmony with His law, His government, and His way of life. Unity with Him begins with the right attitude toward Him, toward others, and toward the self. John W. Ritenbaugh Grace Upon Grace Related Topics: Attitude | Grace | Greatness of Christ | Harmony | Harmony With God | Harmony with God's Purpose | Harmony with God's Will | Power | Power of Christ | Power of God | Power of God's Holy Spirit | Unity | Unity in Christ | Unity in the Spirit | Unity with God | Unity, Godly

Colossians 2:9-10 Paul is saying, "Look, brethren, you have contact with and guidance from God. Why settle for demons?" Looking back into chapter one, we ought to see clearly why Paul wrote what he did: He was establishing the greatness of Christ as contrasted to demons. John W. Ritenbaugh The Covenants, Grace, and Law (Part Twenty-One) Related Topics: Demonic Influence | Demonic principalities | Demons | Greatness of Christ | Guidance from God | Guidance of Holy Spirit
