COLOSSIANS 1:15 - 16
 COLOSSIAN 1:15 - 16
Christ is the visible image of the invisible God.
    He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation,[a]
16 
for through him God created everything
    in the heavenly realms and on earth.
He made the things we can see
    and the things we can’t see—
such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world.
    Everything was created through him and for him.

TRADGEDY IN LIFE IS NOT
