Christ as Head1

    Of Christ, as the Covenant-Head of the Elect.

    By John Gill

    EPH 1:4EPH 1:22

    John Gill expounds on Christ as the Covenant-Head of the Elect, emphasizing His role as the representative of all believers in the covenant of grace. He illustrates how Christ, as the Head of the Church, provides life, nourishment, and protection to His members, akin to a natural head's relationship with its body. Gill explains that all the elect were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, and the promises and blessings of the covenant were made to them through Him. He further highlights that Christ's obedience and suffering were not for Himself but as the federal Head of His people, ensuring their justification and resurrection in Him. Ultimately, Gill reassures that all things are under Christ's authority for the good of His church, securing the safety of believers in Him.
