Bible Question:
In this scripture, if I am reading it correctly, Christ is difining himself. The "Amen... ect.". My question is: IS Christ saying He was the first created being by God? "The beginning of the creation of God." |
Bible Answer: Hi, Leox; No, Jesus was not created by God. As the Amplified passage shows, Jesus was referring to himself as the one who originated creation (see John 1:3). He preceded creation (John 1:1-2); he was not a part of it. Jesus was begotten of God - God's son. God didn't create his son any more than I created my children.
