Revelation 3:14 ESV
14 “And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: ‘The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God's creation.
From the faithful and true witness is the word addressed to ones untrue and unfaithful. God brought forth creation saying "Let there be". The answer resounded in the word Amen or "Let It Be". Truly it unfolded and truly it was made, for it was uttered by the Great Amen. Just as He is the beginning and purpose of creation , so will creation find its end in Him. The word will not come back empty, but from it will flow a new and eternal creation.

After he had said this, he went back outside to the Jews and told them, “I find no guilt in him.

15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. 17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church.
