In the beginning was the Word

And the Word was with God, and the Word was God

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us

He is the image of the invisible God

The firstborn of all creation

For by Him all things were created

In Heaven, and on Earth, visible and invisible

Whether thrones or dominions

Or rulers or authorities

All things were created through Him and for Him

And He is before all things

And in Him all things hold together

When Paul says this, He’s writing to a Church that’s

Confused about Jesus’ identity

For some, Jesus was one of many options

For spiritual enlightenment

But Paul says, no - no - no - let’s be clear here

This Jesus you’re debating

He created all things

Everything was created through Him and for Him

So Paul says whether you’re a Christian or not

Agnostic or atheist - here’s the reality

Jesus is holding the earth on its axis

It’s a perfect distance from the sun to the earth to sustain life

One inch to the left, or one inch to the right, and it’s all chaos

Yes, Paul says, Jesus did that

He’s holding the molecules in your body together

So that whether you acknowledge Him or not

He’s speaking to you every single day

And just in case you didn’t get that message

He did something even more radical

He made the invisible God visible

By taking on flesh and experiencing everything

Each and every one of us experience

A personal God that requires a personal response

A response that millions of transformed people

Have given for over two thousand years

Hello, Jesus

Hallelujah
