How Is Jesus Both the Firstborn of God and the Eternal Son of God?
How Is Jesus Both the Firstborn of God and the Eternal Son of God?
“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him." (Colossians 1:15-16)
In his letter to the Colossians, Paul calls Jesus Christ the “firstborn over all creation” (Colossians 1:15). How can Christ be both the eternal Creator of all things and yet Himself be the firstborn?
