Christ is the firstborn over all creation

Christ is the firstborn over all creation

Col 1:15

15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

Psalm 89:27

27 And I will appoint him to be my firstborn,
    the most exalted of the kings of the earth.

28 I will maintain my love to him forever,
    and my covenant with him will never fail.

29 I will establish his line forever,
    his throne as long as the heavens endure.

Rom 8:29

29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

Heb 1:6

And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God’s angels worship him.”[c]

We learn the following from the above verses

1)    Christ is the firstborn over all creation

2)    The throne of Christ is established forever

3)    For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.



4)    All the angels worship Christ
