HEAVEN Colossians 1:15-17

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

He is the image
John 14:9 Jesus answered, "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?"

of the invisible God
John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
1 Timothy 1:17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Hebrews 11:27 By faith he (Moses) left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible.

the firstborn over all creation
Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

For by him all things were created
John 1:3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.

things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities
Ephesians 1:19b-21 That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.

all things were created by him and for him
Romans 11:36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever! Amen.

He is before all things
John 1:1-2 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.
