“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1)

 

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14?

 

“He was clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called the Word of God.” (Revelation 19:13)

 Jesus Christ existed before creation, He is one with the Father and the  Holy Spirit and is God. He is the Incarnate Word and the Bible (The written Word ) points to Him exclusively in the Old and New Testament.

Yours in Christ,

Carl
