Heads up!

In some circles a controversy has been manufactured about the idea of 'headship'. The manufacturing is in the term itself. There is no 'headship' in the Bible as thought head as an objective fact equates to head as a state of being.

Consider these two passages:

Col 2:9,10
For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, 10 and in Him you have been made [i]complete, and He is the head [j]over all rule and authority;

and

Col 2:19
and not holding fast to the head, from whom the entire body, being supplied and held together by the joints and [v]ligaments, grows with a growth [w]which is from God.

And there it is. Head goes to 'made complete' and it is 'from whom the body...' Nothing to do with  command, or in itself 'authority'.
