John 1:1-5 (NIV) 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. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it
{We know that the ‘Word’ here is speaking of Jesus.}
- Jesus is eternal
- Jesus is separate from God
- Jesus is with God from the beginning
- Jesus is God
- Through Jesus everything was made
- In Jesus there is life and light
- Everything that is dark & sinful can not understand Jesus (It is darkness and sin that keeps us from understanding Jesus. Ask Him to bring to light the dark areas in your life)
*** Comment : The depth of truth in these few passages and their implications are profound. Take time to meditate on them with a good commentary and a logical mind. ***
