1 Corinthians 11:1
You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
2 Now I commend you for remembering me in everything and for maintaining the traditions, just as I passed them on to you.
3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
