The Bible tells us that Christ Jesus has been crowned with glory and honor by God.  Why? Because, by the grace of God, He died on the cross of Calvary to pay mankind's sin debt.  Now, whoever turns to God in repentance through faith in Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior receives eternal life.1

God has exalted Him to the highest place.  He has given Him a name that is above every name and seated Him at His (God the Father's) right hand in heaven. 2 

Jesus directs the affairs of the Christian Church, serving as our High Priest in the true sanctuary in heaven. 3

God has placed all created things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over everything for the Church. 4

He bestows Spiritual gifts upon the Church (apostles, prophets, evangelists and pastor teachers) to prepare God's people for works of service so that the body of Christ ( the Church ) might be built up.5

He also bestows, through the Holy Spirit, Spiritual gifts to all individuals within the Church for the common good of the Church6

He baptizes believers into the Church through the Holy Spirit  and has prepared a place for the redeemed of God in heaven.7

He intercedes for the saints, and acts as our advocate due to the sins of believers. 8 

Angels and authorities and powers have been made subject unto Him. 9  He is fully God, fully man, God-man.  He is, also, King of kings and Lord of lords.10
