Creator, Sustainer, Head (Part One)

CGG Weekly by David C. Grabbe

Jesus Christ is presented as supremely greater than all aspects of the Old Covenant, surpassing even Levi in significance. Through Him, the Father created the ages, encompassing the divisions of time, history, and culture that relate to God and man, summing up to eternity. This includes not only the physical world but also the pre-Flood age, the present age, and the ages to come. Christ upholds, maintains, guides, sustains, and propels all things by the word of His power, an ongoing operation that includes everything from galaxies and solar systems to the life and death of each individual sparrow. Despite the natural law of entropy, where material things break down from order to disorder, He manages this progression to ensure it aligns with His will and the creation of the next age. He regulates the orbits of planets, the ecosystems of the earth, and prevents stars from collapsing into black holes prematurely. As the Creator who breathed life into all things, He holds the power to perpetuate or eliminate existence, demonstrating His authority over all creation as its heir.
