Ephesians 1:21-23

Jesus has been seated far above all "rule and authority and power and dominion". In the very beginning Adam was supposed to subdue the earth and have dominion (Genesis 1:28). Adam failed to do this because of sin, but Jesus, the second Adam, does fulfil this.

Jesus has the name above all names, both in the present age and the age to come. Jesus is supreme over all. We need have no fear at all, for no one and no thing has authority over Jesus.

And everything has been placed under His feet (Psalm 110:1).and He is head over all things, for the church. The church is His body. The goal is that just as the Father and Son are one, so we become one as well (John 17:21, 23).
