“CHRIST IS ABOVE ALL, Continued - COLOSSIANS 1:16-17”
Understanding who Jesus is and correcting false perceptions about Him is essential to your recognition of Christ above all. Today we continue with Colossians 1:16-17.
FOR EVERYTHING WAS CREATED BY HIM,
Jesus did not come into existence when He was born into this world. He has always existed. He was present in creation. He created the whole world and everything in it. He created the great foods we eat and the sunrise we observe. He created Mary, His earthly mother, and the trees, which formed the cross He would embrace. Everything was created by Him.
IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, THE VISIBLE AND THE INVISIBLE, WHETHER THRONES OR DOMINIONS OR RULERS OR AUTHORITIES.
The language of “thrones or dominions or ruler or authorities” is used elsewhere in the Scripture, and it describes evil supernatural powers that we do not see (Ephesians 6:12). God created all things, even the evil spirits that seek to deceive and destroy. But understand this: the demons were not created evil; they became evil. They sinned against God and were cast from His presence. In the same way, there are good things that God has created that we distort and ruin in our sinfulness. But this does not change the reality that He has created everything.
ALL THINGS HAVE BEEN CREATED THROUGH HIM AND FOR HIM.
Not only has Christ created all things, but also all things have been created for Him to bring Him glory. He created the sunset so we can see visibly the creativity of our invisible God. He created the food we enjoy so when we taste it we might say, “Wow, God is good to us.”
He created all things so that all things could bring Him glory. One day even the demons will bow to Him and declare He is God.
HE IS BEFORE ALL THINGS, AND BY HIM ALL THINGS HOLD TOGETHER.
Marcus Aurelius said that all things have their being in nature. However, the text from Colossians teaches and reminds us that everything is sustained by Christ. You are sitting here in this moment because He is holding the universe together. He is, by His mercy, keeping the sun the exact distance it needs to be from the earth. He is the One keeping the blood flowing through your body. He holds all things together.

Most men know specific Bible stories, but do they know the overarching story of the Bible? Eric Geiger’s Unfolded Bible study invites men to explore the story of a God who loves us, longs to be known by us, and ultimately invites us into His story. This devotional walks through the epistles and examines who Christ is, what Christ did, who we are, and how we should live.
