In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
“In the beginning…” is God’s statement of fact. “In the beginning…” are words with significant meaning that support logic, philosophy, psychology, and science. It impacts both the believer’s mind and the doubter’s imaginings but, “In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Before time and space were created and before angelic voices chorused their harmonic, “holy, holy, holy”, in heavenly places, was ‘The Word’. The Word is forever present throughout the span of eternity past, and ‘The Word’ is deep within the conscious, personal existence of the justified man. A unique relationship and unbreakable unity existed within the eternal Deity before the uncreated God spoke the created universe into being, and formed man from the dust of the earth in His own image and likeness. The eternal Word was with God in the beginning and through this second Person of the Trinity, all things were created that were made. By Him all things were made, in heaven and on earth. Things seen and things unseen; authorities, lords, rulers, and powers…all things were made by Him and all things were made for Him. He was sent by the Father to accomplish salvation in the power of the Spirit. The Lord our God is One, working together in perfect harmony and united in every attribute and function of complete Deity. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit work together in perfect union and thrilling harmony with each other. The Word was not only with God in the beginning but from eternity past the Word was God. The Word not only dwelt with God from before time began, or space and matter existed, but the Word was true God…for the Lord, our God, is One Lord and yet presents Himself in Three perfect Persons of the same substance. The Word can never be identified as “a” god, as certain apostate religions and unbiblical denominations declare. For to consider Him so, would be to deny His claim to eternal divinity and render Him as inferior to the Father. Every such errant teaching that denies the deity of Christ, disparages His Humanity and opposes the truth and inevitability of God’s Word. In the absolute and unique unity of the Divinity, before the foundation of the world and all that was created…is the WORD, Who is identified from all eternity as the only One, Who is qualified to become incarnate flesh…the eternal Son Who became the living Word, Who was born as the Son of Man. For, “in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory – as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
