The Gospel according to John, chapter 1, verse 3.
'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 nice man who hung around Galilee two thousand years ago, but the Word, the creative force of the universe, God Himself, the Son of the Father.
God is the creator of everything. People make idols out of creation - stones, rocks, pools, springs, trees - worshipping creation. In these scientific days we make idols out of the State, our 'Life', Democracy, Equality, and so on, earthly creations, the inventions of the mind of man, that can only lead us to slavery.
But the universe and all that is in it was made by God. God is the creator of all, and it is he that we must worship.
Without the Word, without our Lord Jesus Christ, 'was not any thing made that was made.'
