The Word

Jesus Christ is the Word of God.  This seems confusing; how can a man be "the Word?"  We may not understand everything about this, but we can know some things because the Bible gives us clues.

John 1 starts this way: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  He was in the beginning with God.  All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.  In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.  And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."  He not only is the Word of God; He was with God, was God, in the beginning, at the creation.  Verse 14 tells us, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."

We see in Revelation 19:11-16 that His name is the Word of God.  This is a powerful view into heaven.  We see our Savior, the Word of God, with His armies.  They are all in white on white horses.  He is "clothed with a robe dipped in blood."  He gave His all, His life, for us.

The Word of God is called the Son of God, Son of Man, Christ, Savior, Lord and much more.  We need to follow Him...the Word of God.

Thanks for reading again.  Have a great week!
