The Personal Glories of Christ

As seen in Colossians 1

"The Image of the Invisible God."
"The First-born of all Creation."
"By Him were all things created."
"And for Him."
"By Him all things subsist,"
"The Head of the Body, the Church."
"The First-born from the Dead."
"That in all things He might have the pre-eminence."
"That in Him should all fulness dwell."
"Having made peace by the blood of His cross."

Just a Minute

"I have only just a minute,
Just sixty seconds in it;
Forced upon me—can't refuse it,
Didn't seek it, didn't choose it.
I must suffer if I lose it,
Give account if I abuse it,
Just a tiny little minute
But eternity is in it!"

"Redeeming the time, because the days are evil" (Eph. 5:17).
