What does 'all things are of God' mean?

Answered in 1 source

'All things are of God' means that He is the source and originator of everything in creation and existence.

The phrase 'all things are of God' signifies that God is the ultimate source and cause of everything that exists. As articulated in Romans 11:36, God, in His infinite wisdom, planned and created the universe. This encompasses both the material and spiritual realms, as seen in Colossians 1:16, which states that 'by him were all things created.' Therefore, acknowledging that all things are of God leads to a deeper understanding of His role as creator and His purpose for creation, which is ultimately to bring glory to Himself.
