I have seen many on here claim Jesus is a created being. I want to know where this comes from. The Bible seems to make it clear that Jesus has always existed. In Collosians 1:16 is says that all things were created by Him. If everything was created by Him then He Himself cannot be created or He did not create all things. It does not say all created things except Jesus were created by Him. It says all things. So my question is how can you say Jesus is a created being?
Also if non-believers could refrain from comments such as "He never existed" or "The Bible is a myth" it would be appreciated. You do not believe so this question does not concern you. Please go answer a different question.

Collosians 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
Col 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

Ok..on one hand you have Jehovah Witness (and their "official" translation, John 1:1 is a lot different - good luck on getting any to look at an inter-linear Greek Bible to see that their translation is off base), second, ask them why they think He is really the arch-angel Michael, and third - what about "physical" resurrection, oh...they teach it was a spirit that appeared.
Then there is Latter Day Saints...not only is Jesus created being, he is brother to Lucifer, and the whole war in heaven was about which of the two would get to be earth's saviour. Never mind asking what happened to the 1/3 pre-mortal beings who chose to be cowards and not fight for Jesus or lucifer - they used to teach that's the black man. But then again, none of this is found in our bible, because 1) they will only trust our bible as far as it is translated correctly, and 2) this new revelation came from "god" himself, who travelled far from his home on the planet Kalob.

The denial of Christ's divinity is an Arian heresy, if I'm not mistaken. The sect that I know of that completely denies this are the Jehovah's Witnesses. This false belief contradicts the fact that Jesus forgives sins, is our judge, and is worshiped, all things that only can be done by God, Jesus - the Second Person of the Holy Trinity.

The Jehovah's witnesses believe that and they also believe Jesus is the Arch Angel Michael.
Your post is 100% truth. Jesus has always been

Jesus is the second personage of the Trinity. God the father, Jesus the son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen

Jesus has always existed. However, after Eve sinned the gap between God and people began to grow. Jeasus then came down to the world through virgin Mary, in order for his blood to bridge the gap.

You are right and Jesus was also begotten, not born in order to escape the historical curse upon Adam's seed. Romans 5:12.

God Bless.
