Answer 2

Jesus is not God. God is his Father. Also Jesus is not in John 1:1. The word became flesh-that's Jesus... john 1:14. Jesus is a man (flesh). Logos, the word of God is not a person, it is God's breath- God's plan, purpose, and will became flesh in Jesus.

Psalm 33:6 By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

God was never dead. If God literally "became" flesh that means that God himself died. Nope. God is not a man.

Jesus is a man made of a woman of the seed of David by the power and spirit of God- Galatians 4:4, Luke 1:30-35. He is fully and only a man, who is if the lineage of David and Abraham- Matthew 1:1. Jesus said he was a man who told them the truth which he heard from God- John 8:40. Jesus didn't hear the truth from himself- John 7:15-18.

Answer 3

First of all a 'word' is a symbol. It is a pattern of letters, and we agree on various meanings connected with them. We take it for granted that the letters are not the reality; the information or thoughts which they attempt to convey. As you read my words you realize that the information that you are receiving is not an attribute of the letters of the words themselves. The printed line does not contain information. It transmits information. Where is the information that is being transmitted then, if it's not on the page. The same question applies when you read a newspaper, and when you speak to another person. Your actual words convey information, feelings, or thoughts. Words are methods of expression, but the true information is not 'in' the letters or words themselves. The 'Word' John wrote about is the conveyor of the 'True Knowledge' that the Christ personified. That knowledge is basically formless,like water, wine or blood. The Gospel of John is a conveyor 'container' for the the Teachings of Christ, that's why Christ said,"This cup is the new testament in my blood." I believe the Gospel of John Is the 'Holy Grail' that people are searching for.

God was in the beginning; Jesus was in the beginning; The Word of God was in the beginning.

Answer 5

God is our Creator, He has been with us right from the beginning, and He gave us His word which is the holy bible, and that very word is the very essence of God Himself. It is a very special part of Him which He has given to us whom He loves very much. Praise the Lord!!
