Criação
A criação revela a glória de Deus. Céus, terra, mares e tudo o que existe testemunham o poder criador. No princípio Deus criou — e tudo era muito bom.
No princípio
No princípio criou Deus os céus e a terra. O Espírito de Deus pairava sobre as águas. E Deus disse: haja luz.
O poder criador
Pela palavra do Senhor foram feitos os céus. Tudo foi criado por Ele e para Ele — o visível e o invisível.
Criador e Sustentador
O Deus eterno não se cansa nem se fatiga. Dele, por Ele e para Ele são todas as coisas — a Ele seja a glória.
36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory through the ages! Amen.
20 For God's invisible qualities \'97 his everlasting power and deity \'97 are, since the creation of the world, clearly seen, being known from what he has made. So they are without any excuse.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creation is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.
Nova criação
Se alguém está em Cristo, nova criatura é. O Criador faz novas todas as coisas — na natureza e na redenção.
17 So if any one is in Christ he is a new creature. The old things have passed away, they have become new.
10 For we are his work, formed in Christ Jesus for good works in which God had prepared beforehand to have us live.
18 Of his own will he made us his children through the message of truth, so that we might be a sort of first fruits of his creatures.
4 For every house is built by some one, but he who built all things is God.
28 For in him we live and move and are; as some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are his offspring.'
13 And every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all creatures in them, I heard saying, "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and power for the ages of the ages."
