Perhaps you've misunderstood. The word "artifact" simply means a created thing. My point is that we owe our existence to God, and that he has legitimate and complete authority over us.
God sent his Son, not to save all men, but to save those who would believe and abide in him:

"If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned."
- John 15:6
