3 All things came into existence through him,+ and apart from him not even one thing came into existence.

What has come into existence

58 Jesus said to them: “Most truly I say to YOU, Before Abraham came into existence, I have been.”*+

5 So now you, Father, glorify me alongside yourself with the glory that I had alongside you before the world was.+

16 because by means of him+ all [other]* things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities.+ All [other] things have been created through him+ and for him.
