Colossians 1:15 Douay-Rheims

Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:

Ambrose of Milan

A.D. 339–397 Patristic

Be like the image on the coin, unchangeable, keeping the same habits every day. When you see the coin, see the image; when you see the law, see Christ, the image of God, in the law. And because he himself is the image of the invisible and incorruptible God, let him shine for you as in the mirror of the law. Confess him in the law that you may acknowledge him in the gospel.
