'All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.'
Jesus Christ is the Word, not just a man who hung around in Galilee two thousand years ago, but the Word, the creative force of the universe, God Himself, the Son of God.
God is the creator of all. People make idols out of what has been created, and worship wood and stones and water. And in these scientific days we make idols out of the State, 'our Life', Democracy, Equality or other people. We look to them for love and meaning, earthly creations, inventions of the mind of man, idols before which we may submit and which may enslave us.
But the universe and all that is in it was not made by some idol. It was made by God the creator of all, and it is the true Living God that we must worship.
Without the Word, without our Lord Jesus Christ, 'was not any thing made that was made.'
