and the bible said he is the firstborn (colossians 1:15) and also said that angels are sons of God (job 1:6) And he was among the angels in Hebrew 1:6. So that means that Jesus is the elder brother of the angels?

He is the only begotten son of God ...

And he was among the angels in Hebrew 1:6? Is this your conclusion or what you learned from someone?
Hebrews 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Just think! Jesus Christ is the Anointed Savior, monogenestheos.

Good question.... I believe that Jesus was created in a different manner from the angels (i.e. born of a woman to become flesh and walk the earth as one of us, etc.) However, if you consider that we are all thought of as being, in one way or another, God's children, then we must be siblings of Jesus too. Overall, I think the angels were called the sons of God in the same manner that we are the children of God: we are tied because He created us and because of His love for us. I don't think it is quite as literal as brothers and sisters; that is in a way trying to impose upon God human characteristics when He is so much more than we can comprehend. I hope that clears it up.

No, Jesus is God in the flesh. The angels are servants of the Lord.
Jesus is the first born of many brethern..meaning he is the firstborn of the Christians, not the angels. He is our elder brother.

The first creation was Jesus.
Then, through Jesus, all other things was made.
Next, the angels.
Then the universe.
Then life on earth.
I am with those that believe the angel Micheal mentioned several times in the Bible; is Jesus during his prehuman life.

Correct. Jesus was created just like Jehovah's other spirit sons. However, Jesus is God's only-begotten Son because he was created directly by God. The other spirit sons were created through Jesus.

Basically, I would say yes...however he is even more than that since all other things in heaven and on earth were created through him....he is the only directly begotten Son of God.

No, He is first born of the Children of God. When we ask Jesus into our hearts we become joint-heirs with Jesus. We're brothers and sisters not grandchildren.

the firstborn over all creation, not "the first born", which predicates your entire thesis question on an illetigimate premise.

I'm not sure it says that but..
If you are saved ((born again)) that makes you a child of God.. Like adopted. Hope that helps a bit.
