Jesus, as the Son of God, was created before ' God made the heavens and the earth in the beginning.'(Gen 1:1) At Revelation 3:14, Jesus himself said that he was "the beginning of the creation by God". Hence, he was "formed" before God created the universe. He is called God's "master worker" at Proverbs 8:30 and in which at Proverbs 8:22, as wisdom personified, he said: "Jehovah himself produced me as the beginning of his way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago."
He further said that "from time indefinite I was installed, from the start, from times earlier than the earth....when as yet he had not made the earth...when he prepared the heavens I was there."(Prov 8:23, 26, 27) And in working with his heavenly Father to ' prepare the heavens and earth,' Proverbs 30:4 asks: "Who has gathered the wind in the hollow of both hands ? Who has wrapped up the waters in a mantle ? Who has made all the ends of the earth rise ? What is his name and what the name of his son, in case you know ?"
Thus, before the foundations of the heavens and the earth were laid "in the beginning", Jesus existed, being the "firstborn of all creation".(Col 1:15) He has existed before the conception of the universe by God, being "the beginning of (Jehovah God's) way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago." Hence, Jesus had a "beginning", with only God being "from everlasting to everlasting."(Ps 90:2, King James Bible)
