What I would like for us to do is to study the book of John as much as possible verse by verse and thus learn more about life of Jesus Christ and His ministry to this world. I invite each one of you to participate in this most wonderful study. Feel free to use other references in the Bible and the SOP to enhance this study. My goal is to cover at least a minimum of one verse each day. ------------------

John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." What does this verse tell us? ------------------

It tells me that God's Word is as everlasting as He is. That His Word holds the same power as He does, that His power extends beyond His being. ------------------

Verse 1 tells us that "the Word was WITH GOD...Therefore, the Word could not be the Father. John 1:14 tells us that this "Word," "became flesh," and we all know that this "Word" of John 1:1, was/is Jesus. Because that's what He did. Why would this verse 1 tell us that: "In the beginning was the Word; and that the Word was with God? And that the Word was God?" Why should this matter to us?

Verse 1 matters as it tells us right away and confirms it in verse 14 that the Word is Jesus Christ who is the Eternal God as the "in the beginning" of verse one when attributed to God actually means "from eternity was the Word....." ------------------

John 1:2 "The same was in the beginning with God." This verse re-emphasizes the importance of in the beginning." ------------------

John 1:3 "All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. What obvious fact is this verse telling us? ------------------

The WORD is our creator. All things were created for and by Him. Not only is He our saviour, He is our creator. ------------------

On that excellent point, I just want to let you know that we are hosting a creation seminar at the local University in late October. Dr. Kennedy is coming from the Geo-science Research Institute. We feel that this is a vital topic because if we don't believe that ...in the beginning..., the rest quickly unravels. I'm quite busy right now, but I will be sure to be checking back into this study. John has a way of putting things that is truely inspiring. In three verse he makes the trinity and the divinity of Christ irrefutable.
