From the Complete Jewish Study Bible.Are you going to produce scripture that says God did not create through his son or are you just going to rant and rave?
Waiting for scripture BR. If I am wrong show me.

From the Complete Jewish Study Bible.
1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 All things came to be through him, and without him nothing made had being.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of mankind.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not suppressed it.
14 The Word became a human being and lived with us, and we saw his Sh'khinah, the Sh'kinah of the Father's
only Son, full of grace and truth
The Father created through the Son. God is a Trinity and the scripture is not broken. God is creator and He is one.
So we agree that God created through his Son.
Our differences are I see the Son as a creation, you see him as part of God. I see him as a created FORM of God.

Where in the scripture I quoted to you do you see the Son is created? That is not what the scripture says.
We must see all the scripture BR. John 1 is one of the most controversial verses in the Bible.
Col 1:15 [emoji404] Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col 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:
Firstborn of every creature. A creature is not God, it is a creation.

Your interpretation is flawed.
Christ is the firstborn over all creation, or of every created thing. Some false teachers suggest that the Lord jesus Himself is a created being, that He was the first person whom God ever made. Some of them are even willing to go so far as to admit that He is that greatest creature to ever come from the hand of God. But nothing could be more directly contrary to the teaching of the Word of God... The Lord Jesus Christ is God's unique Son. In one sense all believers are sons of God, but the Lord Jesus Christ is God's Son in a way that is not true of any other. He existed before all creation and occupies a position of supremacy over it. He is the rank of eminence and dominion. The expression firstborn over all creation has nothing to do with birth here. It simply means that He is God's Son by an eternal relationship. It is a title of priority of position, and not simply one of time. (The Believer's Bible Commentary)
Firstborn of every creature. A creature is not God, it is a creation.
Bible quotes were given to you,so who is right?
The Bible or the Believers Bible Commentary?
Choose for yourself, I choose the Scriptures.
God created his express image, a spirit son, and used him to create everything else. That son is a created form of God for it contained the fullness of the Father. This is not Jesus BR, this is Christ.
Php 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Yep, the flesh one was. But the spirit son was created first. The express image was used by God to create all.
They have already been given to you and I tire of repeating myself. The commentary is an interpretation, just as your comments (commentary) are an interpretation. Your comments just happen to be wrong friend. Get a clue and come to know the glorious Saviour for who He is.
I reject your Bible commentary as it is in error.
I choose to think for myself friend. I have proven to you my thoughts using scripture. Christ is a creature, an image. Both are creations.
I respect your right to choose, God or the commentary.

Created to do what? What was the reason he was created?
I fear for you friend in tht you call the one who sits on the throne a creature.
