Heb.1:1,2 – God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Here Paul comes right out and declares that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior, the Inheritor of all things and the Creator of all things. This is the place of separation when we boldly declare that Jesus Christ is God. Jesus is declared to be the Heir of all things as God’s only Son but is also recognized as the Creator Himself. Everything that is in this vast universe was created by Him. Everything from the stars and planets to galaxies and solar systems were formed by His hands. He created angels and humans, butterflies and bumble bees, and quarks and electrons. The cattle are His, the whales are His, and the polar bears all came from Him and belong to Him. Here is what Kenneth Wuest says about the use of the word worlds in reference to Jesus creating everything.
“The word “worlds” is the translation of the Greek word aionas. The word includes, according to Alford, “God’s revelation of Himself in a sphere whose conditions are Time and Space, and so all things existing under these conditions, plus these conditions themselves which exist not independently of the Creator, but are His work, His appointed conditions of all created existence, so that the universe, as well in its great primeval conditions,—the reaches of Space, and the ages of Time, as in all material objects and all successive events, which furnish out and people Space and Time, God made by Christ.” The idea in the word aionas is not merely that of the vastness and magnificence of the physical universe, but the thought of the times and ages through which the purpose and plan of God are gradually unfolding. Thus, the Son is the Divine Agent not only in the original creation of the physical universe, but also in the operation and management of that universe and all its creatures all down the ages of time.”
So Jesus not not only created the physical universe, He also created time. The unfolding ages are all part of the masterpiece of His creative wisdom. We have the privilege of living at the end of one age and feel the anticipation of the coming of the next one, the reign of Christ on earth. Everything is moving forward according to perfect His perfect plan.
