Jesus The Creator

 

     In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

    The same was in the beginning with God.

    All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.     

John 1:1-3

     

     By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

     For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

Psalms 33:6,9

 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 

    

John  1:3 

      

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

          Genesis 1:27 

        

I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. 

 

Isaiah 45:12 

   

 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he  hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. 

    

Isaiah 45:18

       

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 

Colossians 1:16 

      The great Creator assembled the heavenly host, that he might in the

presence of all the angels confer special honor upon his Son. The Son wasseated on the throne with the Father, and the heavenly throng of holy angels was gathered around them. The Father then made known that it was ordained by himself that Christ should be equal with himself; so that wherever was the presence of his Son, it was as his own presence. His word was to be obeyed as

readily as the word of the Father. His Son he had invested with authority to

command the heavenly host. Especially was he to work in union with himself in the anticipated creation of the earth and every living thing that should exist upon it. His Son would carry out his will and his purposes, but would do nothing of himself alone. The Father's will  would be fulfilled in him.

----------------------------------------

     In the beginning the Father and the Son had rested upon the Sabbath after Their work of creation. When "the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them" (Gen. 2:1), the Creator and all heavenly beings rejoiced in contemplation of the glorious scene. "The morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy." Job 38:7.

Now Jesus rested from the work of redemption; and though there was grief among those who loved Him on earth, yet there was joy in heaven. Glorious to the eyes of heavenly beings was the promise of the future. A restored creation, a redeemed race, that having conquered sin could never fall,--this, the result to flow from Christ's completed work, God and angels saw. With this scene the day upon which Jesus rested is forever linked. For "His work is perfect;" and "whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever."

Deut. 32:4; Eccl. 3:14. When there shall be a "restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21), the creation Sabbath, the day on which Jesus lay at rest in Joseph's tomb, will still be a day of rest and rejoicing. Heaven and earth will unite in praise, as "from one Sabbath to another" (Isaiah. 66:23) the nations of the saved shall bow in joyful worship to God and the Lamb.
