All things were made through Him,
and without Him nothing was made that was made.
John 1:3, NKJV
He made it all.
Everything in this universe was made, created, brought into existence and given form and function by the Great Creator. It's such a simple concept, easy to understand, no further explanation necessary. And yet there are those who refuse to accept it. They cannot believe in a designer and a builder who could fashion the elaborate wonder that is all creation. Instead, they invent elaborate explanations under the guise of science, theories that have not now nor can they ever be proven. It was an accident, they say, a great cosmic, cataclysmic coincidence that just happened to produce perfection out of the chaos.
Now, I wasn't there, at the very beginning. But He was.
I wasn't privy to the omniscient workings of the omnipotent God. But He was.
I wasn't present to witness the formation of all creation. But He was.
The Word was. The Word was with God. The Word was God. That same was in the beginning with God. He who was not created but ever existed as the eternal Son of the Living God was there at the beginning. He had the unique perspective of being the agency through which God acted, the means and method to God's intended end, which is to say, the beginning of all that will ever be. God did nothing independently from Himself, but utilized each and every facet of the triune Godhead that is Himself, manifested to us as Father, Word, and Spirit, to bring both the visible and the invisible into being.
Through the Word, God made all things.
By the Word, God made all things.
And the inspired apostolic author of Colossians says that for the Word, God created all things.
The eternal Word was in complete agreement and cooperation with the Father and the Spirit when they brought forth from within themselves the miracle that is Creation. The quick and powerful Word was in unity with the trinity when they made everything from nothing and gave it existence and purpose. The spoken Word made it so, and keeps it so, and the inspired Word tell us so.
Jesus made it all!
For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers.
All things were created through Him and for Him.
Colossians 1:16, NKJV
