From Reconciling understandings of Scripture and Science
See at Colossians 1:16 for a list of reputable translations the give "in him all things were created . . . " rather than "by him . . . " and discussion at Colossians 1:12-18. The New Testament teaching that the Redeemer, the one "in whom we have redemption" (v. 14), was anticipated "before the foundation of the world" (qv) has important implications for our understanding of Origins, ruling out ideas that the Lord Jesus was created as a problem-solving afterthought.
A conflict has sometimes arisen in disputes about the Bible and Science around the accusation of "An Adam-based faith" — this is critiqued here
See also the discussion of the two creations in the Bible at Colossians 1:12-18.
