Human innovation and creativity are reflections of God's own inventive nature, as seen in the intricate design of the universe. The Bible teaches that all things, including human discoveries and technologies, were created through and for Jesus Christ, as stated in Colossians and John 1:3. The Holy Spirit guides believers into all truth, including the discovery of new things, according to John 16:13. The book of Genesis records the early ingenuity of humans, such as Tubal-Cain, who forged tools and instruments, demonstrating the resourcefulness and skill that God has given humanity. Romans 1:20 notes that God's invisible attributes can be understood through the things He has made.

Moreover, I have selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, as his assistant. I have also given skill to all the craftsmen, that they may fashion all that I have commanded you: the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the Testimony and the mercy seat upon it, and all the other furnishings of the tent— the table with its utensils, the pure gold lampstand with all its utensils, the altar of incense, the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the basin with its stand— as well as the woven garments, both the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments for his sons to serve as priests, in addition to the anointing oil and fragrant incense for the Holy Place. They are to make them according to all that I have commanded you.”
