Psalm 33:9

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

What this passage establishes

Creation answers God’s own speech: He spoke, and it came into being.

Why it matters in the argument

Scripture says God created alone, then the New Testament places creation in Christ. The identity claim is stronger than merely saying Jesus assisted another Creator.

Apostolic connection

Because the LORD says He created by Himself, New Testament creation passages reveal Jesus within the identity of the one Creator.

Common misunderstanding

Language such as ‘by’ or ‘through’ does not require a second creator beside God; Scripture also describes God creating by His word, wisdom, power, and will.
