Colossians 1:15-16 (ESV) 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.
Everything is a thought of Infinite God. And in studying the movements of the solar system, or the composition of an ultimate cell arrested in a crystal, developed in a plant; in tracing the grains of phosphorus in the brain of man; or in the powers, and action thereof—I am studying the thought of the Infinite God. -- Theodore Parker (1810-1860)
