John 1 The Word Became Flesh

1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. What is the Word of God- scripture or a person- Jesus Christ?


According to BibleGateway.com dictionaries: "the Word" is one of the titles of our Lord, found only in the writings of John (John 1:1-14; 1 John 1:1, Revelation 19:13). As such, Christ is the revealer of God. His office is to make God known. So thus far we know that Jesus Christ is the Word. Jesus Christ was there in the beginnig; He was with God and He is God.


Lets look at the individual scriptures listed above to see if we can get more understanding on the Word:

John 1:3,4,14. Vs 3 Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In Him was life. 14 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. Confirmation that Jesu is the Word. The Word was Him in Spirit).


1 John 1:1 Amplified.

We are writing about the Word of life (in) Him who existed from the beginning, whom we have heard, whom we have seen with our (own) eyes, whom we have gazed upon (for ourselves) and have touched with our (own) hands. Jesus Christ.


Revelation 19:13

He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood and His name is the Word of God. Jesus Christ.
