SPELLING EDITED U-30. Revelation 3:14 Is JESUS THE CREATOR? Does Revelation 3:14 mean that Jesus is the CREATOR of all things, as in, does the phrase “the BEGINNING OF the creation of God” mean that Jesus created the entire universe? Here is Revelation 3:14. “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the BEGINNING of the CREATION of God;” Now, Biblical Unitarian Christians “interpret” Revelation 3:14 to mean that the human Jesus is the first human to be begotten from the dead and given eternal life to become the BEGINNING OF God’s NEW CREATION who will INHERIT the worlds to come. So the “creation” here in Revelation 3:14 is NOT referring to the original creation in the eternity past. And that is HOW I myself interpret Jesus as being the BEGINNING of the creation OF God by becoming the FIRST begotten from the dead among many BRETHREN. I mean simply read the CONTEXT. Was Jesus the FAITHFUL WITNESS in the eternity past? That makes no sense to me. What would Jesus be a witness of BEFORE anything was ever created? So the CONTEXT clearly teaches us that Jesus is the CREATION of God as opposed to Jesus being the creator. Think about this verse using every word found in it. Did Jesus just BEGIN the creation of God and the God Himself finished the creating? Again, that makes no sense either. And then there is the tiny preposition of which means that Almighty God Himself is the creator who created Jesus as a new CREATURE, the FIRSTBORN of every creature, the BEGINNING of God's new creation of righteous people in the IMAGE of God. But Trinitarian Christians “INTERPRET” this verse to mean that Jesus preexisted as God the SON who CREATED ALL things, as in, God the Father created the entire universe BY or THROUGH God the Son, the second person of a Godhead Trinity God. In other words, Trinitarian Christians teach that there is ONE God in THREE separate persons who created all things TOGETHER. They incorrectly interpret a few other verses in the New Testament to also mean that Jesus is the creator. But when we read Proverbs 8:22-31 we can clearly see that IF Jesus literally preexisted, Jesus did not lift one finger to create anything or help the Father do any of the creating. Other Christians, such as the Jehovah’s Witnesses, wrongly “interpret” Revelation 3:14 to mean that Jesus is the FIRST created being of God’s creation in the eternity past named the Word, and THEN God created everything else THROUGH the Word. And they “interpret” the “Word” in John 1:1 as being a SEPARATE divine being who was brought into existence in the eternity past. And thus, they conclude that Jesus must have pre-existed in order to be the creator. And they use other verses like Ephesians 3:9-11; John 1:1-3; Hebrews 1:1,2; Revelation 4:11, and Colossians 1:15-17 to try and support their INTERPRETATION. Please read the study “EPHESIANS 3:9 DID JESUS CREATE ALL THINGS?” for a deeper understanding that Almighty God ALONE and BY HIMSELF is the CREATOR, who created all things FOR or FOR the SAKE OF His SON Jesus having His Son in whom He would be well pleased in his MIND or PLAN as the reason for creating all things. For you see, God needed a FAITH WITNESS to prove that He is a just God to destroy Satan and the fallen angels in the lake of fire. Please read the studies under the heading >>>WHY ARE WE HERE?-IS GOD AT WAR?<<< But for now please read Isaiah 44:24. “Thus says the LORD, your redeemer, and he that formed YOU from the womb, I am the LORD (Or I am Yahweh) that makes ALL THINGS; that stretches forth the heavens ALONE; that spreads abroad the earth BY MYSELF;” The Christians that “INTERPRET” Revelation 3:14 to mean that Almighty God the Father is the actual creator who then USED His SON as the MEANS BY WHICH God created all things are CONTRADICTING Isaiah 44:24. In other words, the “INTERPRETATION” of Christians who say that Jesus pre-existed in the eternity past in order to be the CREATOR is actually saying that there were TWO SEPARATE divine eternal PERSONS that as a team working together in unity created all things. But that “interpretation” does not agree with the rest of God's word. First of all, Isaiah 44:24 which we just read clearly and plainly teaches us that Yahweh ALONE and BY HIMSELF created all things. And the word “Yahweh” is God’s personal NAME which is NOT a TITLE such as a word like “God”. So simple common sense should tell you that ALONE and by Himself means that there was NO ONE WITH Yahweh either helping Him or doing the creating for Him. The Jews, the Muslims, and Biblical Unitarian Christians believe that Yahweh is ONE God is ONE person who ALONE is the creator of the universe and everything that exists. Also, the word of God PROPHESIES that the SON OF Almighty God was BEGOTTEN or brought INTO EXISTENCE on a certain DAY. Please read the study “WHEN DID JESUS BECOME GOD'S ETERNAL SON?” In that study, I show and explain the verses where Almighty God PROPHESIES of a future day when He SHALL BE a Father to His future Son. So WHY would God prophesy of one day having a Son if so be that His Son already existed in the eternity past? When we consider the WHOLE word of Almighty God we find sound Biblical evidence that clearly teaches us in simplicity that ONLY Yahweh the Father has always existed and that Jesus was manifested to DECLARE to us a TRUE UNDERSTANDING of the UNSEEN Yahweh. Please read 1 Timothy 6:13-16. “I give you charge in the sight of God, who quickens ALL things,(Or in the sight of Almighty God Yahweh the Father the ONLY SOVEREIGN God who makes alive or gives life to ALL things) AND before Christ Jesus, (Or the ANOINTED ONE of God) who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; 14. That you keep this commandment (Or that you keep this principle or this teaching) without spot, UNREBUKABLE, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15. Which in his TIMES (Speaking of both the first and second comings of Jesus) he (Jesus) shall SHOW, WHO is the blessed and ONLY POTENTATE, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; (Yahweh is the Eternal King who MADE His human Son be Christ, Lord, and King. The LITERAL translation reads “...ONLY Potentate THE King of the ONES being king Lord of the ONES being a lord.” And we will be made kings and lords at the coming of Jesus to rule and reign with Jesus in the world to come. So Yahweh the Father is the Eternal King of kings and Lord of lords) 16. WHO ONLY has IMMORTALITY, dwelling in the light which NO MAN can approach unto; whom NO MAN has SEEN, NOR CAN SEE: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.” Now if you are truly seeking the truth of the whole word of God then all you need to do is to THINK this through for YOURSELF and ask yourself four simple questions. #1. Did men SEE Jesus? #2. Has any man or human being other than Jesus SEEN the face of Almighty God the FATHER or has seen the Father face to face? #3. WHO was Jesus commissioned BY God to SHOW us? #4. Does this verse say that Jesus will show HIMSELF to be the ONLY Potentate or does it specifically state that he will show WHO is the ONLY Potentate who ONLY has immortality and who can NOT be SEEN? When you answer these four very simple questions for yourself the answer will be obvious that it can only be Almighty God the FATHER, the INVISIBLE Spirit as the ONLY one, who has ALWAYS possessed IMMORTALITY in Himself as the SOURCE of all life. Therefore, there can be NO SECOND person of the so-called TRINITY, or ANY SECOND person named the Word, who has ALWAYS been IMMORTAL for all eternity past, who was WITH God AT his SIDE for all eternity. For you see, that would make TWO separate divine beings who were immortal in eternity past. And the “INTERPRETATION” of TWO separate divine eternal beings possessing IMMORTALITY in eternity past CONTRADICTS the rest of God's word. First of all, it contradicts 1 Timothy 6:13-16 which we just read. And then it also contradicts John 5:26,27 where Almighty God the Father GAVE the Son of MAN eternal life AFTER the cross BECAUSE he was the Son of MAN. You see the TRUTH of the matter is that Jesus, the human SON OF God, was GIVEN ETERNAL LIFE or IMMORTALITY by his God and Father AFTER the cross when God raised the Son of MAN from the dead. Please read John 5:26,27 which clearly and plainly teaches us that Jesus did NOT pre-exist as an IMMORTAL being as a SECOND person of the so-called TRINITY Godhead, or as ANY second divine person named the Word. The Son OF God was GIVEN the divine nature of IMMORTALITY after he became obedient unto death on the cross. John 5:26,27. “For AS (Or in the SAME WAY that) the Father HAS life IN Himself; SO HAS He GIVEN TO the Son TO HAVE LIFE IN himself; 27. AND has GIVEN him authority to execute judgment ALSO, BECAUSE he is the Son of MAN.” So then, to ME, the only way that I myself have found to interpret Revelation 3:14 where Jesus says that he is the BEGINNING of the CREATION OF God is to say that this verse means that Almighty God has His SON Jesus in his MIND to bring forth into existence BEFORE Almighty God THOUGHT of any other thing or being to create. This means that God had a NEW CREATION in mind all along when he FIRST made Jesus and mankind a little LOWER than the angels at the virgin birth. In other words, the spoken word of prophecy was made flesh in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and God’s HUMAN Son was born of a woman just as the PROPHECY in Isaiah 9:6,7 prophesied. And then AFTER the cross, Yahweh highly exalted His human Son to be made Lord and God to JOIN Yahweh at His right hand, and in the world to come Jesus will be called by the name Mighty God according to the PROPHECY which we will read in just a moment. So to me, the SOUND Biblical meaning of Revelation 3:14 is that Jesus is the BEGINNING of God’s NEW CREATION of righteous humans who will INHERIT the world to come. Please read Isaiah 9:6,7 and while you read this prophecy please notice the ORDER in which the events were PROPHESIED. Please read Isaiah 9:6,7.
“For (Order of event #1 that has already been FULFILLED) unto us, a CHILD is BORN, (THEN comes Order of event #2 that has also already been FULFILLED) unto us a son is given: (Speaking of the HUMAN Son of MAN, Jesus as the Son given to be the ONE sacrifice for the sins of the world. Yahweh provided His own Lamb that was slain in the mind of God from the foundation of the world. God chose His Lamb to be made inferior to the angels so He made the human race a little lower than the angelic beings) and (And THEN Order of event #3 is YET FUTURE and it is YET TO BE FULFILLED) the government shall be upon his shoulder: (Which is the WRATH of God executed by Jesus. That is WHEN the kingdoms of this present world will become the kingdom of God's dear Son to begin the 1000 year reign of Jesus) and (And THEN will come Order of event #4 that is YET FUTURE and it is YET TO BE FULFILLED WHEN the government will be set upon the shoulder of Jesus IN the world to come, at which TIME) his NAME shall be CALLED Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, (Or more precisely, according to Hebrew 5:9, the Father of everlasting life or the AUTHOR of eternal life. For you see, it was BECAUSE, OF the Son of man, Jesus obeying his God and Father's Will that Jesus made it possible for whosoever believes in him shall be saved. Jesus was MADE perfect and he BECAME the Father of eternal life AFTER the cross. For you see, the Son of MAN, Jesus, was GIVEN the authority and the power AFTER the cross to JUDGE and also to give eternal life to whomsoever he chooses. This is why Psalms 2 prophesies to kiss the feet of God’s Son whom He ordained to be his King of kings and Lord of lords. Jesus is also called) The Prince of Peace. (And, according to Revelation 1:5, Jesus is our Prince right now standing at the right hand of God according to Acts 7:56. But at his second coming, Jesus will SIT on the right hand of Yahweh to rule and reign FOR Yahweh as the Lord of the Sabbath. And at that time, the kingdoms of this present world will become the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. And) 7. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.”
Also, please notice WHO is doing the PERFORMING of His own spoken word of PROPHECY that came forth OUT FROM His mouth. It is Almighty God Yahweh the creator who is performing His own word. So to me, Jesus is the FULFILLMENT of the spoken word of PROPHECY. Jesus began as a THOUGHT in God’s mind as God's secret plan of salvation. Not just the salvation of mankind that He had not yet created, but also the RESTORATION of the entire universe back to being at PEACE having no WAR. God created the human race to put an END to evil. Please read the studies under the heading >>>WHY ARE WE HERE-IS GOD AT WAR?<<< So then, to ME, Revelation 3:14 does NOT teach us that Jesus is the creator of the universe. But rather, Jesus is the WORKMANSHIP OF Yahweh who PERFORMS His own word of PROPHECY. So Revelation 3:14 AGREES with Colossians 1:19 as Jesus being the BEGINNING of the FIRSTBORN from the DEAD to become the FIRSTBORN among many BRETHREN. Please read the study “WHAT DOES FIRSTBORN OF EVERY CREATURE MEAN?” But for now, let us take a look at some other translations of the verse in Revelation 3:14.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the Bible in Basic English.
“And to the angel of the church in Laodicea say: These things say the true and certain witness, the HEAD of God's new order.”
This means that God highly exalted the Son of MAN to be above God's NEW creation. There is coming a NEW heaven and a NEW earth wherein there will be NO wickedness or sin. But before this takes place there will be the world to come speaking of the 1000 year reign of Jesus who will rule FOR Yahweh the Father during that seventh 1000 year long day while Yahweh the Father rests on the seventh day as he prophesied he would in Genesis 2:1-3.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the Common English Bible.
“Write this to the angel of the church in Laodicea: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the RULER of God's creation.”
Again, Jesus will be the ruler of God's NEW creation here ON the earth. God also prophesied that His Messiah would be called mighty God and God of the whole EARTH. In Isaiah 9:6,7 it says that his NAME shall be called mighty God. And in Isaiah 54:5, God prophesied that His redeemer, the Holy One of Israel SHALL be CALLED the God of the whole EARTH. The heavens are Yahweh's and the earth is His footstool. God is placing THE ALL of whosoever believes under his FEET. The word feet is symbolic language referring to the BEGINNING of his NEW creation, the Son of MAN Jesus the firstborn among MANY BRETHREN. And the ALL is speaking of every new creature created IN Jesus the ANOINTED of God.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the Holman Christian Standard.
“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: The Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the ORIGINATOR of God's creation says:”
We are Yahweh’s creation but without the human Jesus, there would be NO NEW creation of God. Jesus is the AUTHOR and finisher of our faith. Notice that this verse says that Jesus is the FAITHFUL and true Witness. This teaches us that DURING the days of his FLESH Jesus was the faithful and true Witness to NOT sin and to lay down his own life for us to BECOME the AUTHOR or the ORIGINATOR OF God's NEW creation created IN Jesus Christ.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the New International Readers.
“Here is what I command you to write to the church in Laodicea. Here are the words of the One who is the Amen. What he gives witness to is faithful and true. He RULES OVER what God has CREATED. He says,”
Please notice that it says what God has created. Did Jesus rule over what God created during his FIRST coming? NO! During the first coming, Jesus was the Lamb of God to be slain for the sins of the world which Yahweh Himself provided. And it will be at the SECOND coming of Jesus that he will be ruler over what GOD created IN him. All power, authority, and judgment was GIVEN unto the human Son of God AFTER the cross to be MADE the Lord of the Sabbath. The Sabbath is Yahweh’s seventh day of rest called the Day of the Lord which is 1000 years long. This is why the early first century Christians taught that Jesus would return at the end of the SIXTH 1000 year long day from the creation. Please read the study “DOES GOD HAVE A 7000 year PLAN OF SALVATION?”
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the New Revised Standard.
“And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write, The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ORIGIN of God's creation.”
Jesus is the author, the firstborn from the dead to be given eternal life never to die again. Jesus never showed himself to be alive forevermore until AFTER the cross. And BECAUSE OF Jesus, we can become new creatures created by Yahweh IN Jesus Christ.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the Message Bible.
“Write to Laodicea, to the Angel of the church. God's Yes, the Faithful and Accurate Witness, the FIRST of God's creation, says:”
Obviously, from what we have just learned, Jesus is BOTH the HEAD or highest ruler of God's new creation having ONLY Yahweh the Father over him. AND Jesus is ALSO the very FIRST human being to ever be given the divine nature of immortality. Right NOW Jesus is the ONLY begotten Son of God, but at his coming, we who ARE Christ's shall join him to be made partakers of the divine nature of immortality in order to become the eternal sons and daughters of God.
Here is Revelation 3:14 from the Young's Literal Translation.
“And to the messenger of the assembly of the Laodiceans write, These things saith the Amen, the witness -- the faithful and true -- the CHIEF of the creation OF God;”
The Greek word that is translated as beginning in the King James Bible is “ARCHE”, which also means “commencement” or chief, and carries the meaning of order or rank. In other words, this Greek word means FIRST, as in, the very FIRST in TIME of creation that God created. But it ALSO means FIRST, as in, the CHIEF or HIGHEST being that Almighty God has created. So it means BOTH first in time and first in rank. And another possible meaning of Revelation 3:14 is that God created all things where God FIRST had his SON Jesus is His mind and plan as to one day bring forth into existence. This AGREES with other verses that in TRUTH teach us that Almighty God created all things FOR THE SAKE OF His SON Jesus. But no matter which of these three possible interpretations is chosen by you, the reader and seeker of the truth, the end result is the same. And that result is Jesus was CREATED at some point in time. And, therefore, since Jesus had a BEGINNING and also has Yahweh over him as his God and Father, then Jesus can NOT possibly be THE ALMIGHTY God Himself, who ALONE and BY HIMSELF created all things, according to Isaiah 44:24. This time we will see that Yahweh is talking to His future Messiah Jesus whom Yahweh FORMED in the womb of the Virgin Mary.
Please read Isaiah 44:24 again.
“Thus says the LORD, your redeemer, and He that FORMED YOU from the WOMB, I am the LORD that makes ALL THINGS; that stretches forth the heavens ALONE; that spreads abroad the earth BY MYSELF;”
Jesus did not form himself in the womb of the Virgin Mary. The living spoken word OF the living God did not form itself in the womb of the Virgin Mary. It is Yahweh alone and by Himself who watches over HIS word to PERFORM IT.
Jeremiah 1:12.
“Then said the LORD (Yahweh Himself said) unto me, You have well seen: for I will hasten MY word to perform IT.”
The WHOLE word of God in truth teaches us that Jesus CAME OUT FROM God.
Please read John 16:27,28.
“For the Father, Himself loves you, BECAUSE you have loved me, AND (BECAUSE you) have believed that I CAME OUT FROM God. 28. I CAME FORTH FROM the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.”
Now, some Christians INTERPRET these words of Jesus to mean that Jesus pre-existed as a SECOND divine eternal Spirit being who was WITH God AT his SIDE and then God SENT Jesus out from His side down to the earth. And that is how Trinitarian Christians “interpret” the words of Jesus who said he CAME OUT FROM God. But as we have already seen this INTERPRETATION contradicts 1 Timothy 6:13-16 and John 5:26,27. However, the “interpretation” that the word OF God that became flesh as being the SPOKEN word or the spoken saying that CAME OUT FROM God's MOUTH does NOT contradict any other part of Gods' word. Please read the studies “JOHN 16:27,28 JESUS CAME OUT FROM GOD!” and “WHAT DOES JOHN 1:14 TRULY MEAN?” But for now, let us get back on track. Again, this Greek word “ARCHE” means a BEGINNING and a COMMENCEMENT. The word “commence” means to START God’s creation. Jesus is not ruling right now, but rather, Jesus will BEGIN to rule or commence to rule as the God of the earth AT his second coming. But even after all of this SOUND Biblical evidence that Revelation 3:14 does NOT mean that Jesus IS the creator of the universe, Trinitarian Christians will argue, What about Ephesians 3:9? Does not Ephesians 3:9 teach us that God created the universe BY Jesus Christ? NO! Ephesians 3:9 says NOTHING about Yahweh creating the entire universe BY Jesus Christ. Let us read that verse from the King James Version first.
Ephesians 3:9.
“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world has been hidden in God, WHO created ALL things BY (DIA or FOR and FOR the SAKE OF) Jesus Christ:”
You see the Greek word “DIA” that is translated as “BY” in Ephesians 3:9-11 where this verse SEEMS to be saying that ALL things were created BY Jesus Christ is actually saying that all things were created FOR Jesus Christ or FOR the SAKE OF Jesus Christ.
The Greek word “DIA” (Strong’s # G1223) that is translated as “BY” also means through, FOR, BECAUSE OF, and FOR THE SAKE OF. The root meaning is the CHANNEL of an act. The REASON why the act was made. The means of, The GROUND or reason by which something is done or not done, By reason of, on account of, because of, for this reason.
Here is how E-Sword defines the Greek word “dia”.
G1223 διά dia dee-ah' A primary preposition denoting the channel of an act; through (in very wide applications, local, causal or occasional). In composition it retains the same general import: - after, always, among, at, to avoid, because of (that), briefly, by, for (cause) . . . fore, from, in, by occasion of, of, by reason of, for the sake, that, thereby, therefore, X though, through (-out), to, wherefore, with (-in). In composition, it retains the same general import.
The base meaning of the word “CHANNEL” is to direct something towards something. The whole idea of a channel is to direct everything that one is channeling to a specific point or place. To channel is to direct, to guide along some desired course. So then, the ACT of creation is DIRECTED towards the ETERNAL PURPOSE of Almighty God of having a SON, who would become the everlasting Father or more precisely God's SON would become the Father or the beginning of ETERNAL LIFE by becoming the FIRST born from the dead among many brethren. Again, please read the study “EPHESIANS 3:9 DID JESUS CREATE ALL THINGS?” for a deeper understanding that Almighty God Himself is the creator of all things and that his SON Jesus was the REASON FOR which the Father created all things. Also, read “WHAT DOES FIRSTBORN OF EVERY CREATURE MEAN?” for even more understanding that the word “things” is NOT in the original text. And thus, Ephesians 3:9; John 1:2; Hebrews 1:2,3. Revelation 4:11, and Colossians 1:16,17 should read THE ALL, as in, the ALL of whosoever BELIEVER to become a NEW creature. In other words, God who created ALL is referring to God's NEW creation created IN Jesus Christ BY God where Jesus is the co-creator because God has GIVEN the Son of MAN Jesus all authority and all power to GIVE us the divine nature of eternal life AT his coming to rule and reign with Jesus over the MORTALS on the earth. Again, in the original and LITERAL text, the word “things” is NOT in the text. So the “ALL” that was created BY, FOR, and FOR the SAKE OF Jesus the Christ is the ALL of WHOSEVER who BELIEVE that became God's NEW creation BY or BECAUSE OF Jesus. Because he lives, so shall we also live. We are IN the true God because we are IN his SON Jesus the ANOINTED by God. So then, I myself must conclude that Revelation 3:14 does NOT prove that Jesus ETERNALLY pre-existed for all eternity as the so-called SECOND person of the TRINITY as God the SON, or ANY second person named the Word. At best, this verse in Revelation 3:14 can be “interpreted” as the Word meaning the LOGOS, the SPOKEN word of God that CAME FORTH OUT FROM the MOUTH of God as being the MEANS by which all things were created BY Almighty God HIMSELF. Thus, Jesus ALSO came forth OUT FROM God when God SPOKE FORTH His WORD by the Angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary to be conceived or more precisely FORMED BY Yahweh in the womb of Mary to be BORN as the Son of MAN. I used the word formed because God said I formed you in the womb speaking to Jeremiah as a prophecy speaking of Jesus. God formed Adam out of the dust which means God created Adam Jeremiah and Jesus.To me, if God simply formed Him a body to clothe Himself then Jesus would not be a real person. Jesus has his own soul and his own will. So by formed in the womb of Mary, I mean that God created Jesus in the womb of the Virgin Mary BY the spoken word of PROPHECY that was made FLESH who would be called the Son of God during the days of his flesh. But the human Son of God would not actually become God's ETERNAL Son until AFTER the cross. Please see the three-part study “WHEN DID JESUS BECOME GOD'S ETERNAL SON?-1” for all the verses that prove beyond any shadow of a doubt that this is what the Bible ITSELF teaches us in simplicity. Now, to the Christians who still argue that Jesus MUST have preexisted in order to BE the CREATOR, I want you to carefully read Proverbs 8:22-31. For you see, IF you “INTERPRET” Proverbs 8:22-31 as Jesus LITERALLY preexisting as a separate person who was with Yahweh the Father in the eternity past then you MUST concede that Yahweh the Father ALONE is the CREATOR because Jesus does not lift one finger to create ANYTHING in Proverbs 8:22-31. Please read the study “WHAT DOES PROVERS 8:22-31 TRULY MEAN?” Therefore, since Proverbs chapter 8 clearly teaches us that the Son OF God did NOT create the earth then all the New Testament verse like John 1:1-3, Hebrews 1:2,3; Ephesians 3:9; Revelation 3:14; Revelation 4:11, and Colossians 1:15-17 MUST be interpreted as God’s NEW CREATION of the ALL of WHOSOEVER believes to be CREATED IN Jesus Christ. For you see, IF you “interpret” Proverbs 8:22-31 as Jesus LITERALLY preexisting then that INTERPRETATION contradicts the INTERPRETATION that Jesus IS the CREATOR of the entire universe. The whole point of Trinitarian Christians to “interpret” verses of Scripture to mean that Jesus literally preexisted is to try and prove that Jesus IS Almighty God Yahweh Himself, as in, a SECOND PERSON of Yahweh Himself but NOT being TWO separate Yahwehs. The SIMPLE truth is that the ONE Yahweh in ONE PERSON begat Himself a human Son at the virgin birth just as it was prophesied. Then Yahweh highly exalted His human Son and GAVE him a NEW NAME after the cross. And that NEW NAME is YAH which is a contraction of the name Yahweh. The King James Version says Jah. And AFTER the cross, ALL the FULLNESS of Deity now dwells IN Yah who shall be called Yahweh our righteousness in the world to come. Please read the study “WHAT DOES TAKE THE LORD’S NAME IN VAIN TRULY MEAN?” In that study, you will see that one TRUE Yahweh in ONE person GAVE His OWN name Yahweh to His human Son who will rule as God by TITLE for Yahweh in the name of Yahweh in the world to come. And the reason why Yahweh devised His ingenious PLAN of salvation is to put an END to the war waged by Lucifer and the fallen angels. Jesus IS the FAITHFUL and true WITNESS who will JUDGE Lucifer and the fallen angels. Acts teaches us that God will judge the world BY the MAN Jesus Christ. Jesus is coming to rapture the FAITHFUL Christians who will also judge Satan and the fallen angels. Only those pf us who endure unto the end shall be SAVED. So the creation in Revelation is God's new creation of the ALL of the WHOSOEVER who BELIEVE in Jesus as their Lord and Savior to endure unto the end to be saved.So let us not NEGLECT God's so great a salvation.
