The Coherence of the Cosmos

Commenting on Col. 1:17, J. I. Packer says this marvelous statement:

"The coherence of the cosmos depends on its relation to the Son.  The coherence of the cosmos depends upon the continual output of upholding power from the Son."

We would do well to meditate upon this and get it into our system.  And until so-called science and scientists acknowledge this and bow before the Son who makes the discipline and their work possible, redemption still has to be applied.  And in due course it will be, for all things will be reconciled to the Son according to the Father's good pleasure and purposes.  Messiah Jesus will have the supremacy, will be pre-eminent, in all things.
