Christ as master in the new testament

In the New Testament, Jesus Christ is often referred to as the Master or the Lord. Here are some examples:

  1. Matthew 7:21-23 - Jesus says, "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'"
  2. Matthew 11:25-27 - Jesus says, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent. Such were your enlightened ones. But now I will call you blessed, Father, because you have revealed these things to the simple and unlearned. Yes, Father, for that is what it pleased you to do."
  3. Luke 6:46 - Jesus says, "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?"
  4. John 13:13-15 - Jesus says, "You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that the Teacher, the Lord, has washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example, that you should do as I have done to you."
  5. Colossians 1:15 - Jesus is referred to as the "image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation."
  6. Philippians 2:9-11 - Jesus is referred to as "the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
  7. 1 Corinthians 11:3 - Jesus is referred to as "the head of every man and the head of the church, which is his body, and is himself the savior."
  8. Ephesians 5:23 - Jesus is referred to as "the head of the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way."
  9. Hebrews 1:3 - Jesus is referred to as "the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word."
  10. Revelation 1:5-6 - Jesus is referred to as "the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father—to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen."
