Yes — God the Son created the entire universe and presently holds every particle of it together, and through His omniscience He has never lost sight of a single star or a single person.
Les Feldick teaches from Colossians 1:16-17 that God the Son is the Creator of all things and the One by whom all things 'consist' — meaning everything is held together moment by moment by the power of His Word. He further explains that with billions of galaxies containing billions of stars, God has never lost sight of even one of them, because He is omniscient, omnipresent, and infinite. Since God keeps track of trillions of stars, He certainly keeps track of every human being.
Colossians 1:17 — This verse directly answers the question by showing that the Son does not merely create the universe — He actively holds all things together moment by moment.
Colossians 1:16 — This verse establishes the scope of what God keeps track of: everything in heaven and earth, visible and invisible, was created by the Son and for Him.
Scripture presents God the Son as the Creator and Sustainer of the entire universe. Colossians 1:16 declares that 'by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him.' The very next verse states that 'he is before all things, and by him all things consist' (Colossians 1:17) — the Son holds all of creation together. Hebrews 1:3 affirms that the Son is 'upholding all things by the word of his power.' And Hebrews 11:3 explains that 'the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear' — the entire visible universe was spoken into existence out of nothing. Because all things were created by Him, for Him, and are upheld by Him, Scripture makes clear that nothing in the universe is outside His knowledge or control.
Les Feldick emphasizes that the One who keeps track of everything is God the Son — the visible image of the invisible triune God. He explains from Colossians 1 that the Son created all things and that 'by Him all things consist,' meaning Christ holds every particle of the universe together with the power of His Word. He asks why the universe does not explode in nuclear fission and why the planets do not split one another into tremendous energy and explosion — the answer is that God the Son controls every particle of it. Les drives home the magnitude of what God keeps track of: there are billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars — trillions upon trillions of celestial bodies — and not one has ever been out of control. He teaches that God has never lost sight of any one of them because God is omniscient (all-knowing), omnipresent (present everywhere), and infinite (with no outer limit to His presence or His creation). Les then applies this to human beings: if God can control trillions of stars, He will have no trouble calling a few million believers off the planet, and God in His omniscience and sovereignty has put together every human being that has ever been born.
Les Feldick explains Colossians 1:17 — 'by him all things consist' — by noting that the word 'consist' means 'held together.' He asks why the universe does not explode in nuclear fission and why the planets do not split one another into tremendous energy and explosion, and his answer is that God the Son controls every particle of it with the power of His Word. Even now, Les notes, the universe is still being created and moving further outward, because God is infinite and there is no outer shell on God's creation.
Les Feldick's point is direct: with billions of galaxies containing billions of stars, not a single one has ever been out of control, and the same Lord Jesus who controls them all is the One who will one day take believers off the earth. If He can control trillions and trillions of stars, calling a few million people off the planet presents no trouble at all. Les also teaches that God in His omniscience has put together every human being that has ever been born — every sperm and every egg that has ever been fertilized, according to His will.
Les Feldick teaches that God has not lost sight of any one of the trillions of stars because He is omniscient — all-knowing. God is also omnipresent: you cannot go anywhere, even to the deepest hell or the highest heavens, where God is not there, as David wrote in the Psalms. And even as astronomers say the universe is expanding outward, Les notes that it never goes beyond God — He is infinite. These attributes explain how God is able to keep track of everything at all times.
Les Feldick draws attention to Colossians 1:16 — that all things, whether thrones, dominions, principalities, or powers, everything visible and invisible, were created by God the Son and for Him. He warns against bringing the Son down to the level of the gods of mankind's dreaming, because He is the Creator, and one day every human being — including the lost at the great white throne — will know Him as such. All things were created by Him and for Him, and He is the Head of the Body, the Church.
The Son as the Visible Image of God
Les introduces God the Son as the visible, tangible image of the invisible triune God, establishing that the One who keeps track of all things is the Son Himself.
God's Omniscience Over Every Human Being
Les teaches that God in His omniscience and sovereignty put together every sperm and egg ever fertilized, and that the billions of stars show His limitless knowledge.
Christ Holds the Universe Together
Les explains that 'by Him all things consist' means God the Son holds every particle of the universe together by the power of His Word, keeping the planets from destroying one another.
Christ Controls Trillions of Stars
Les teaches that not one star among billions of galaxies has ever been out of control, and the same Lord Jesus who controls them will have no trouble calling believers off the planet.
God's Omniscience, Omnipresence, and Infinity
Les shows that God has never lost sight of a single star because He is all-knowing, present everywhere, and infinite — nothing in creation is beyond Him.
The Son Is the Creator of All Things
Les emphasizes Colossians 1:16, that everything in heaven and earth, visible and invisible, was created by the Son and for Him — the scope of what God governs.
Christ Is Head Over Creation and the Body
Les connects Christ's role as Creator of all things to His position as Head of the Body, the Church — everything functions because of Him.
The Universe Framed by the Word of God
Les explains that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, with everything visible coming out of nothing — showing God's absolute power over creation.
Colossians 1:16: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Establishes that the Son created everything in heaven and earth — the full scope of what God keeps track of.
Colossians 1:17: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
Directly answers the question: the Son holds all things together moment by moment.
Colossians 1:18: And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
Connects Christ's role as Creator to His headship over the Church, which functions because of Him.
Hebrews 1:3: Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
Affirms that the Son is presently upholding all things by the word of His power.
Hebrews 11:3: Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Shows that the entire visible universe was spoken into existence out of nothing by God's Word.
God keeps track of everything through the Son, who created all things and holds them together by the power of His Word (Colossians 1:16-17). Les Feldick teaches that God the Son controls every particle of the universe and has never lost sight of any one of the trillions of stars.
No. Les Feldick teaches that with billions of galaxies containing billions of stars — trillions upon trillions — God has not lost sight of a single one. Because He is omniscient and infinite, every celestial body is known to Him at every moment.
Yes. Les Feldick teaches that God in His omniscience has put together every human being that has ever been born, and that if God can control trillions of stars, keeping track of millions of people is no trouble for Him at all.
Les Feldick explains that God is omnipresent — you cannot go anywhere that God is not there. David wrote in the Psalms that even in the deepest hell or the highest heavens, God is present, and the expanding universe never goes beyond God because He is infinite.
