God our Father has caused you to be ruled by his Son, who existed before and ranks above everything that has been created.

Colossians 1:13-20

13 God our Father rescued us spiritually so that the evil one no longer rules us [MET, MTY], and he caused us now to be ruled by his Son,, whom he loves. 14 That is, because of our relationship with his Son (OR, because of what the one who is also God did), God has redeemed/bought us; in particular, he has forgiven our sins. 15 God’s Son reveals perfectly what God, his Father, is like, whom no one can see. God’s Son existed before and ranks above everything that God has created. 16 When God created everything that is on the earth, he did it by having his Son do it. He created everything that people can see, and also everything which is in heaven that people cannot see. In particular, his Son created all ranks of important spirit beings. And his Son ranks above everything, because God by the work of had his Son, and because by his Son all things were created {because God had his Son create everything} in order that everything might praise his Son, 17 and because it is his Son who existed before anything else existed, and because God sustains everything by what his Son does. 18 And God’s Son ranks above everything, because it is his Son who rules over his people [MET] as a person’s head controls his physical body, because his Son causes his people to live spiritually. God’s Son is the first one who became alive again, in order that he should become more important than anything and everyone. 19 God’s Son reveals perfectly what God his Father is like, because his Father chose to live completely in him. 20 God our Father caused his Son to rule us, because he decided to reconcile with himself everything that is on earth and that is in heaven by what his Son did, in order that everything might honor his Son; that is, God our Father decided to reconcile everything to himself as a result of his Son’s blood flowing when he died on the cross.
