for it was through him that everything was created in heaven and on earth, the seen and the unseen, angelic thrones, dominions, principalities, authorities??ll things were created through him and for him.

and put on the new self which has been created in likeness to God, with all the uprightness and holiness that belong to the truth.

God who created the world and all that is in it, since he is Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples built by human hands,

and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created the heavens and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, that there should be no more delay,
