Which verse discusses the headship order with 'the head of every man is Christ'?

• A. Hebrews 12:14
• B. 1 Corinthians 11:3
• C. Colossians 3:18
• D. Ephesians 5:22

Answer: (B)

The concept being tested is the order of spiritual authority described in Scripture. In this framework, there is a stated chain: God over Christ, Christ over man, and man over woman. The phrase “the head of every man is Christ” is the anchor of that chain, appearing in the verse that lays out this headship sequence. Because it explicitly names Christ as the head of every man and then continues to define the other relationships, it’s the clear reference for this headship order. The surrounding context in the same passage further explains how this authority structure applies in worship and in relations such as marriage, reinforcing the idea of delegated authority rather than personal value. Other verses address related topics like holiness or submission, but they do not contain that precise statement about Christ being the head of every man, so they don’t identify this headship sequence.
