The term "Completest" is not directly found in the Bible; however, it can be understood in the context of biblical themes of fulfillment, perfection, and completion as they relate to God's work in creation, redemption, and the believer's life. The concept of completeness is woven throughout Scripture, reflecting God's nature and His purposes for humanity.

Divine Completeness

In the Bible, God is often depicted as complete and perfect in His nature and actions. Deuteronomy 32:4 states, "He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He." This verse highlights the perfection and completeness of God's character and deeds. God's creation is also described as complete and good, as seen in Genesis 1:31 : "And God saw all that He had made, and it was very good."

Fulfillment in Christ

The concept of completeness is central to the New Testament, particularly in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:9-10 declares, "For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells in bodily form. And you have been made complete in Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority." Here, the apostle Paul emphasizes that believers find their completeness in Christ, who embodies the fullness of God.

Jesus' mission is often described in terms of fulfillment and completion. In John 19:30 , as Jesus is crucified, He declares, "It is finished." This statement signifies the completion of His redemptive work, fulfilling the prophecies and requirements of the Law.

Spiritual Maturity and Perfection

The theme of completeness extends to the spiritual growth and maturity of believers. In Matthew 5:48 , Jesus instructs His followers, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect." This call to perfection is a call to spiritual maturity and completeness in character, reflecting God's holiness.

The apostle Paul frequently speaks of believers being made complete in Christ. In Philippians 1:6 , he assures the church, "being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will continue to perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." This verse underscores the ongoing process of spiritual growth and sanctification, leading to ultimate completeness in Christ.

The Church as the Body of Christ

The concept of completeness is also applied to the Church, which is described as the body of Christ. Ephesians 1:22-23 states, "And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all." The Church, as the body of Christ, is called to reflect His fullness and completeness, functioning in unity and diversity.

Eschatological Fulfillment

The Bible also speaks of a future completeness that will be realized in the eschaton. Revelation 21:6 proclaims, "He said to me, 'It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give freely from the spring of the water of life.'" This verse points to the ultimate fulfillment and completion of God's redemptive plan, where all things are made new.

In summary, while the specific term "Completest" is not found in Scripture, the concept is deeply embedded in the biblical narrative, reflecting God's perfect nature, the fulfillment of His promises in Christ, the spiritual maturity of believers, the unity of the Church, and the ultimate completion of His redemptive plan.
