Jesus our Creator

Question: Is Jesus Christ our Creator?

Answer:

Yes, the Bible very clearly says that Jesus is our Creator. While Genesis 1:1 states, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth," Scripture shows that the second person of the Godhood, Jesus, did the actual work of creation.


Many verses in the New Testament support this fact. John 1:1-3 says "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made." Again Colossians 1:16 says referring to Christ, "For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him." God the Father used God the Son to create this world.


Jesus is not a created being. He is eternal and has always existed. He Himself is the Creator of all things. Jesus accomplished what His Father wanted Him to do and therefore it is right to call Him the Author of Creation.
