God is Creator

The International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia, Volumes 1–5 Creator

The distinctive characteristic of Deity, as the Creator, is that He is the Cause the existent universe—Cause of its being, not merely of its evolution or present arrangements.

Genesis 1:1 NASB95

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

John 1:1–3 NASB95

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.

Hebrews 11:3 NASB95

By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.

Colossians 1:15–17 NASB95

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.

Nehemiah 9:6 NASB95

“You alone are the Lord. You have made the heavens, The heaven of heavens with all their host, The earth and all that is on it, The seas and all that is in them. You give life to all of them And the heavenly host bows down before You.

Isaiah 45:7 NASB95

The One forming light and creating darkness, Causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the Lord who does all these.

Revelation 4:11 NASB95

“Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created.”

God - Elohim. This is how He introduces Himself to His creation - as Creator.

Elohim means “strong one” - sovereignty and authority

Genesis 1:26–27 NASB95

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Genesis 2:7 NASB95

Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

The Bible Knowledge Commentary 1:24–31

Being in God’s image means that humans share, though imperfectly and finitely, in God’s nature, that is, in His communicable attributes (life, personality, truth, wisdom, love, holiness, justice), and so have the capacity for spiritual fellowship with Him.
