As stated in Gen. 1:31, all things (whether peccable or not) were created by Jesus Christ who is eternally begotten in the impeccable image of the invisible God (Col. 1:15,16). As stated in 1 Cor. 15:47, the first man is earthly (peccable) and the last man is the Lord from heaven (Impeccable).
How can you argue a finite theological issue when you don't even rightly understand a fundamental doctrine, i.e., the incarnation and the two natures of Christ? All things were NOT created by Jesus Christ, Who is the SON OF GOD in human flesh, Who was BORN of the virgin Mary in space and time (Jh 1:14). Gen 1:31, Col 1:15, 16 and Col 2:3, 9; 2Cor 4:4; Phil 2:6; Heb 1:13 in speaking of deity, divine attributes, etc., ALL are referring to the SON, the divine nature of Christ and NOT to the human nature of Christ. See also Jh 1:1, 18; 10:30, 38; 14:9; Rev 3:14; 1Tim 1:17; 6:16 and Heb 1:1, 2.

If it is improper to speak of Jesus Christ as the eternal, impeccable, and immutable Son of God by whom all things were created, why does Heb. 13:8 say, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever"?

Impeccability belongs to God alone and to whomever He by His sovereign will grants that ability, e.g., the resurrected Christ and glorified saints.

If the saints were granted Impeccability through the merits of Christ, why was Christ granted Impeccability? It's a poor Savior who needs a Savior.
