Colossians 2:9-12 Part 1 of 4

For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh was put off when you were circumcised by Christ, having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead. 

For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form 
John 1:16  Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given.
Ephesians 1:22-23  And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.
Colossians 1:19-20  For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

He is the head 
Ephesians 1:22  (see above)
1 Corinthians 11:3  But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 
Ephesians 4:15  Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
Ephesians 5:23  For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
Colossians 1:18  And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
