Jesus reveals his heart as he prays with the disciples present. He says to the Father, “You have loved them, as you have loved me.” We know that the Father loves the Son very much.
He says, a bit later, to his Father, “You loved me before the foundation of the world.”
Although the first verse in Genesis says, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth,” Jesus reveals that before that, He was the Father who loved His Son.
He is first a loving Father before He is a creator. He is not The Prime Mover or The First Cause as the ancient Greeks said. He is the Father who loved his Son and now loves us with that same love.
