John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Acts 17:28
For in him we live, and move, and have our being
For in him we live, and move, and have our being
Hebrews 1:1-3a
In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
Any look at the Advent must start with the beginning of universe. The Apostles made it clear that not only was Jesus God, the Son incarnate, but He was also God, the creator. Jesus has existed since the beginning of time and is the binding force of the entire universe. Only by understanding this can we appreciate the significance and magnitude of the incarnation and the One who came. The Creator entered into the creation in order to save the creature.
