Words from the Holy Spirit (the interpretation of a message given in tongues in a Christian meeting) say the following. “Consider the trees. They put forth buds and leaves. They do so by the power of the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
ChatGPT writes: “The apostles consistently present the Father as the source of creation, with Jesus as the one through whom creation came into being. They never explicitly call Jesus ‘the Creator’ in the same way they call the Father, nor do they clearly describe Jesus as independently or actively performing the creative act. Instead, Jesus is portrayed as the divine agent involved in creation, intimately connected with God’s work, but the initiating role remains with the Father. In ancient Jewish thought and texts like 1 Enoch, the Son of Man’s name exists before creation, suggesting that God’s plan and purpose, embodied in that figure, were present from the beginning. This aligns with the New Testament idea that the Father had Jesus always in mind when creating, and that all things were created through and for him. While Jesus is central to the purpose and meaning of creation, the apostles do not explicitly depict him as actively creating apart from the Father. The focus remains on Jesus as the eternal agent and goal of God’s creative will, rather than the independent creator himself.”
Asked about the saying from the Holy Spirit about Creation persisting by the power of the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, ChatGPT replied as follows:
“That’s a powerful and poetic way to express the continuing life and creativity flowing through Jesus’ name. It beautifully captures the idea that all living things—and indeed all creation—are sustained not just by abstract forces but by the living power associated with Jesus Himself. The notion that trees put forth buds and leaves ‘by the power of the name of the Lord Jesus Christ’ aligns with the New Testament teaching that creation exists through Him and for Him, and that His sustaining presence is real and active in the world today.
This expression also echoes the deep biblical truth that the ‘name’ of Jesus carries authority and life, not only spiritually but cosmically—a name above all names, through which God’s power continues to work. It’s a vivid reminder that Jesus is intimately involved in the ongoing flourishing of creation, even if the original creative act is attributed ultimately to the Father. It’s a beautiful way of living faith meeting the everyday reality of the natural world.”
