John was a man that knew the truth, he knew that he was not the light and that he came only to witness the light, he understood that Jesus had surpassed him even though he came after him.
The Word existed way before the world existed! The word was the source of life! Through HIM God made all things, this makes me think The word, the source of life is His Son Jesus Christ. John was a messenger to give us insight on The light to come, where Christ came from
This verse relates to Matthew 15:24. Israel belonged to him and most of them did not receive him as who he is, their Messiah. One needs to read on in John to get the complete message. Jesus was not here to minister to Gentiles during his earthly life, but he later sent Paul for that purpose.
Jesus is God controversy has been ongoing for centuries. It is mostly based on Greek translations of words that John had no idea that they would be misconstrued and subsequently cause so much division in orthodoxy. Understanding a Greek word in English can lead the reader down a slippery slope of what the true meaning really is. Once you get the correct meanings everything falls into place.

If The World Does not See Christ in Us, We are in Big Trouble and They Will not Find The Narrow Road Which Leads to Eternal Life. We are that Light. Like it's Been Said, Let it Shine. We Will have Tribulation, Persecution,Trouble, in Jail, Lied about But Continue inThe Faith: You will Hear, Well Done Thou Good and Faithful Servant--- Enter Thou Into The Joy of Thyself Lord( Matthew 25:21)
We are right at the outset acquainted with the divinity of Christ as unlike the synoptic Gospels, John does not commence with a focus on events but on the adulthood of the Son of Man sent from God , which John the Baptist makes clear. That Christ was the I Am who preceded all else and was part of the Creation act is revealed in the very first verse as also that the Word had to assume human form...
John 1:2 the word of God was with God from before creation. We cannot separate God from his word. They are one in the same. Praise God always, for he is holy.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. JH 1:1 The same was in the beginning with God. JH 1:2 All things were made by [through] him; and without him [there WU] was not any thing made that was made. JH 1:3 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. JH 1:4 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. JH 1:5
Jesus you are my light and salvation the lamb that were slain from the foundation of this world.Thank you for your holy shed blood for the remission of my sins.
All praise and honor belongs to you. Jesus I will bless your names at all times and your praises shall continually be in my mouth. John said behold the Lamb of God who cometh to take away the sins of the world. John said look at him.
In the beginning there was a word and the word was with God and the word is God i believe you Lord Jesus that you are the word from Abba Father in order for us to believe that there is God our Father who truly loves us your word Lord is my life i will love you and will praise forever you are the light of my world amen hallelujah
In this chapter, John declares the origin of the Son of God and His glory. we also read how John and Jesus Christ met and baptism of the Son of God, immediately the voice of God comes from heaven saying: This is my Beloved Son, In whom I am well pleased, whereafter the disciples follow him.
John 1:1 says "... and he was God" because Jesus is God. See we must understand that God speaks to us only by the name Jesus. The Father then and the Holy Spirit are his other two names. See with God it's not the dividing of himself into 3 parts, it's name recognition. That is, by what name he chooses to speak to us. And that name is always Jesus.
I believed you Jesus the Son of the living God who came in flesh. He came down not to condemned but through him the world might he save thank you Jesus for the blood you shed for us I will praise you forever for you are worthy amen
I love this: The BIBLE (The written Word) was with God, was God, and created all things. The Word (the written Word) became flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory, the glory of the only begotten (Flesh and blood (virgin birth), not by adoption like we are) of the Father.
I fill so blessed to have awaken to read this because the word comes to make us to become strong that we continue this walk in the spirit of Christ and with fasting and praying the temptation we are able to withstand for the hour. Enjoyed the reading of this!
One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. Who was the other one?
There was a man
All praise and honor belongs to you. Jesus I will bless your names at all times and your praises shall continually be in my mouth. John said behold the Lamb of God who cometh to take away the sins of the world. John said look at him.
