Good evening dear friends, fraternal and cordial greetings to the whole community in general, greetings to all the brothers of Ghana, Nigeria, Venezuela and other nations of our planet, it is an honor for me that you dedicate time to my writings, that the Spirit Holy of God minister your lives.
I briefly tell you some observations that the Bible reveals to us, they are very important and every Christian should handle these aspects that are fundamental in the doctrine of the church, the children of God are called to scrutinize the scriptures.
Juan 1 Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)
The verb made flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 This was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made for him, and without him nothing that was made was made.
4 In him was life, and life was the light of men.
5 The light in the darkness shines, and the darkness did not prevail against it.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 He came by testimony, that he might bear witness to the light, that all might believe for him.
8 He was not the light, but to testify to the light.
9 That true light, which enlightens every man, came to this world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him; But the world did not know him.
11 He came to his own, and his own did not receive him.
12 But to all who received him, to those who believe in his name, he was given the power to become children of God;
13 which are not begotten of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And that Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we saw his glory, glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.
15 John testified of him, and cried out saying: This is who I said: The one who comes after me is before me; because it was first me.
16 For from his fullness we all take, and grace upon grace.
17 For the law through Moses was given, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 No one ever saw God; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.
Some evidence that Jesus Christ is God
Book of John chapter 1 personally catches my attention because in this paragraph we will see that the prophet John the Baptist expresses some words that identify Jesus Christ as the image of God. For example in verse 2 it says: This was in the beginning with God.
Then later he mentions in verse 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him; But the world did not know him. Verse 15 John testified of him, and cried out saying: This is from whom I said: He who comes after me is before me; because it was first me.
The writing demonstrates according to my appreciation that the Lord became incarnate in the form of a man and the only begotten son of God, who rescued the human being from eternal damnation. These are some evidences in a single chapter, there are many more in the bible that are even deeper theological and systematic, so it is important that we know the word of God.
