Ephesians 5:22-24,33
22 Wives to your husbands, as you would to the Lord. 23 For the husband is to be leader of the wife, in the same way that Anointed One is leader of the church, since in fact he is the rescuer and protector of the body. 24 Therefore, in the same way the church submits itself in obedience to the Anointed One, wives should submit themselves in obedience to their husbands in everything.... 33 But with regards to you in particular, every husband should love his wife as himself, and wives treat your husbands with reverence.
Ephesians 5:25-33
25 Husbands, love your wives sacrificially, just as the Anointed One loves the Church, having surrendered his life completely for her, 26 to make her holy and completely clean through washing her in revelation. 27 His purpose was to present to himself for marriage a glorious church without spot or wrinkle or anything to detract, but completely pure and holy. 28 In the same way, husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. Anyone who loves his wife is showing love to himself. 29 For no one ever hates his own flesh but watches over it and cares for it. That's exactly the way the Anointed One takes care of the church, 30 for in fact we are his body. 31 For the same reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and become joined together with his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery I am talking about, especially as applied to the Anointed One and the church. 33 But with regards to you in particular, every husband should love his wife as himself, and wives treat your husbands with reverence.

Colossians 1:9-12
9 Since we first heard about it, we have not stopped praying for you and asking that you would be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. 10That you might walk worthily of the Lord, pleasing in all things, fruitful in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 strengthened with all strength according to his glorious power, making you patient and enduring, filled with joy, 12 giving thanks to the Father.

Colossians 1:15-20
15 He is the visible representation of the invisible God, firstborn among every created being. 16 For by him all things were created in the heavens and the earth, what is visible and what is invisible. The invisible things include thrones, dominions, principalities, or powers. All things were created by him and for him. 17 And he is before all things and by him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the Church. The one who was in the beginning was also the firstborn from the dead so that in all things he might have preeminence. 19It was pleasing that in him all fulness would dwell, 20 and by him to reconcile all things to himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace by him through the blood of his cross.
Colossians 1:21-23
21 And even you, who once were alienated and enemies by your thoughts and evil actions, now have been reconciled to himself through the death 22 in his body of flesh. He thus presented us holy, unblemished, and without fault in God’s eyes, 23 if you continue grounded and settled in the faith and have not departed from the hope of the Gospel which you heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven of which I, Paul, was made a minister.
Colossians 1:24-29
24 I take joy in my sufferings for you, filling up in my own flesh what falls short of the sufferings of the Anointed One on behalf of his body which is the Church. 25 In fact, I am a minister with a particular assignment to complete the word of God to you, 26 this mystery which has been hidden in ages past but is being revealed to this generation of God’s people. 27 God wants to reveal all the riches of the glory of this mystery to the non-Jews, which is “the Anointed One in you, the hope of glory”. 28 We preach “the Anointed One”, counseling every man and imparting wisdom to every man so we can present all men completely perfect in the Anointed One, Jesus, 29 towards which I am striving with all the energy, which works in me powerfully.
Colossians 2:11-12
