    The word "other" is not found in this verse in the original Greek scriptures
    ------------------
    Tonio,in the translation from one language to another it is not always a matter of substituting one word for the other language equivalent. It is true that most translators do not include the word other at Col 1:17 however they do translate the Greek word panta which means all or every as all(other) or every (other)when it is needed to convey the correct understanding, An example can be found at 1 Cor 6:18.
    (1 Corinthians 6:18) Flee from sexual immorality! Every other sin that a man may commit is outside his body, but whoever practices sexual immorality is sinning against his own body.
    To leave the word (other) out of the above Scripture would convey the idea that sexual immorality does not harm the body when in fact the opposite
    is what it teaches.
    There is no getting around the fact that Jesus is a creature. In other words he was created. Also being firstborn means he was God's first creation.
    Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: --King James Bible.

    After Jesus was created all (other) things were created.
    Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. -- King James Bible

    It should be obvious that saying Jesus is ''before all things'' cannot include God.
