Description

From the Titles of Christ Class December 30. The Word
John 1 presents a profound theological introduction to Jesus Christ, describing Him as the Word (Logos). This chapter establishes Jesus as eternal, existing before creation, and as the active agent in all creation. John emphasizes that the Word was with God and was God, highlighting the divine nature and unity of Jesus with God the Father. The Word, embodying life and light for humanity, became flesh and lived among us, full of grace and truth. This incarnation allows people to witness God's glory. The chapter also introduces John the Baptist, who testifies about Jesus, clarifying that he himself is not the Messiah but a forerunner. Through the Word, true life and light are offered, granting the right to become children of God to those who believe in His name. This opening sets the theological tone for the entire Gospel of John, emphasizing the divinity of Christ and His role in salvation.
