The last book of the Bible identifies Jesus as “the beginning of the creation by God.” (Revelation 3:14) Jesus is “the firstborn of all creation.” That is so “because by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible.” (Colossians 1:15, 16) Yes, Jesus was the only one directly created by God himself. Therefore, he is called God’s “only-begotten Son.” (John 3:16) The firstborn Son also bears the title “the Word.” (John 1:14) Why? Because before being born as a human, he served in heaven as one who spoke for God.

1. Jesus was born.
2. The word John 1:1....
In the beginning was the gospel preached through the Son. And the gospel was the word, and the word was with the Son, and the Son was with God, and the Son was of God.
3. Yes, he tells the things God, his Father wants him to say.
4. He came as a man because he was doing the things God, his Father, wanted him to do and to gain a physical body.
5. He performed miracles to bless the lives of those around him and to manifest the works of God.
6. He will purify the world and present it to the Father spotless (including you).

As the bible says he was the first born of creation. So both created and born. He was called the word because he made known to us what God did say for mankind. Many things recorded in the Hebrew scriptures he repeated and added to.
As God's chief spokesman he could be called the word.
(Colossians 1:15-17) . . .5 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All [other] things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all [other] things and by means of him all [other] things were made to exist,

Miss Adina, Jesus is the one and only begotten son of the father ! He always existed and became the living word of God the father. He never spoke for himself but he spoke what the father thought. Man allowed sin to come in and it formed a divide between man and father God ! He came as a blood sacrafice so that man and Father God could be reunited in heaven. He performed miracles so that people could see that he was who he claimed to be ! He will soon return to collect the true believers so we will not have to endure the wrath of the antichrist !

I am going to answer your question about the future.
When he was on the earth he mirculously supply food.
He cured the sick and raised the dead. He calmed the storms so no more tornados or herricanes. he felt pitty for the people who were suffering. He didn't wait for people to come to him in some big fancy church but he traveled the hill sides and by the ocean and talked to people and cared that they were hungery.
This is what he promised for us in the future. Jesus will remove all pain and suffering from this earth. One day Jesus will rule the world and do what he did on a limited basis to show us what he was capable of. But do it earthwide.
Not as some wimpy person but he will be the one to destroy the wicked for all mankind and only those who he wants to will survive.

The others have answered the first but not this one.
By disobeying God's command, the first man, Adam, committed what the Bible calls "sin" So God sentenced him to death. He no longer meassured up to God's standards, so he was not perfect anymore. slowly he grew old and died. Adam passed on sin to all his children. that is why we also grow old , get sick, and die. How could mankind be saved?
Jesus by holy spirit was born on earth as a perfect man.
so only he could buy back for us what Adam lost one perfect human life.
This is what the bible refers to as the "ransom" Thus Adam's children could be released from the condemna tion to death.
All who put their faith in Jesus can have their sins forgiven and have the everlasting life we should have inherited from Adam.

That's a lot of questions.
Jesus was born of Mary. He was born.
I suppose he's called the Word because he was a teacher and messenger. Many faith believe that much, just not that he was divine. That is only the Christians.
He came to earth to save humans.
He did miracles to prove he was God's son
And they say he's going to come back and save them all.
I think I got them all right.
Blessed Be
