Fiction or reality ?

Jesus did many other things as well. John 21.25

The Gospel according to John ends with these words that seem exaggerated : Jesus did many other things ; if they were written in detail, I do not think the world itself could contain the books that would be written. But this is to misunderstand the one whom the Bible claims to be God, the Creator of all that exists. The apostle John therefore did not fantasize ! For it is he, the Christ, who by his infinite power created the universe and all that it contains.

God created the world through his Son... You, Lord, in the beginning founded the earth and the heavens are the work of your hands (Hebrews 1:2,10). All things were done by the Word (Christ) and nothing that was done was done without it (John 1:3). For in Christ were created all things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible... Everything was created by him and for him. (Colossians 1.16)

So, how many millions and millions of books should we write to tell all that Christ has done, since the creation of the universe, as well as all that he has accomplished for humans on earth ? And we should add to it all that he does and will still do until the end of time ! Truly, the world cannot contain all the books that could be written about it !
