Picture this. You are standing at the back of a room or a hall, listening intently to your pastor at the front of the room. A chair squeaks or someone sneezes and you don't quite catch what he said. A verse is up on the screen, but you didn't quite catch the Pastor's meaning. Let's say the verse is Colossians 1:15 from the CSB. It reads: The Centrality of Christ |
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. |
Who was this about? Was it Jesus? How would he be the firstborn? When you have a moment, you look up the verse. With Bible Gateway Plus, you can get answers quickly from trusted resources. |

The word image means perfect replica. That Christ is the firstborn over all creation has nothing to do with time but with rank. It's like the term first lady. The president's wife is not the first woman ever to live in the White House. She holds the rank of first lady because of her connection to the one in charge. By his divine connection to God the Father, Christ inherits creation and the right to rule: "God has appointed him heir of all things" (Heb 1:2). He is the rightful King of creation. |
