The Maker


John 1:3,10 - V 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. V 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.

1Corinthians 8:6- V6“Yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.”

 Colossians 1:16-17- V 16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him.

V 17  He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

 Hebrews 1:2, 10- V2-3 in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

V10-And, "YOU, LORD, IN THE BEGINNING LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH, AND THE HEAVENS ARE THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS;

Revelation 4:11-"Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created."

We see in these passages that Jesus Christ, the one who made everything. We see the maker of the universe, who made the stars and planets and galaxies billions of light years away and beyond. He created all things. What, I ask would make Him want to come to this earth in the form of a baby and then a man. Why would He want to come to one small blue planet and live among people that hate Him and want to kill Him? The Mighty Maker would come in a humble state, not flaunting and saying look at me, which He had every right to do, because He made us. Instead He came as a baby because there was something every important that He wanted to do for us. He wanted to show us His love for all of us who had rebelled against Him. So He willing died as the perfect sacrifice for His own creations sins. There is no greater example of love in all of the History of mankind. There is no greater gift given to mankind. For on that day that the mighty maker was beaten, bruised, blood poured out from his back and head, with the crown of thorns that has been shoved there. He was mocked spit upon, cursed and beaten. The wood splinters from the cross were pushed into His back as He stumbled up to the cross. Then He was nailed to the cross and left to die. This is how the Mighty Maker was treated, and yet He went through it all, because He loved us. I am amazed at such love. I am worthless, I am just one person in the billions of people who have lived on this earth and yet He died for me. He died for the whole worlds sins and He died for me. The Mighty Maker died for me. Oh what love, How can we describe it? How can we understand it? And yet we don’t need to describe it or understand it fully to know that we are loved by God. We have been saved from sin and Hell, because of Christ amazing love and sacrifice for us. Christ the Mighty Maker died for man His creature’s sins. Praise the Lord that He did not stay in the grave, but that He has risen from the dead and is seated at the right hand of God interceding for us. What an amazing God we have.
