John Chapter 1 Discussion Page 31

Jesus is God. Also the Holy Spirit completing the trinity is also God. When us christians and the world realize what this book,(John), is telling us and open our hearts to the Truth, then, and only then will we be saved. ch.14. v.6

Thanks, to our loving and forgiving God, who has forgiven us of our sins and filled us with the Holy Ghost to guide us into all truths, so we can be called His sons and to have joint heirs with His only belovd Son Jesus Christ.

(Verse 19) "Look! There is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" John made this statement in reference to the removal or forgiveness of our sins. When we are saved, that is, when we believe or have faith in Jesus, his substitutionary or atoning death takes away any and all of our sins. This leaves us clean and righteous in God's sight, free to do the good works God has designed for us to do.

To be a subtitute means to die in the place of another. This means that the death of Jesus was not capricious. It's legal basis was to place Jesus in the place of all people and punish him for their crimes.

This could only take place if Jesus is the one who made us, and is therefore God. This is what David means when he says, "Open for me the gates where the righteous enter, and I will go in and thank the Lord (Jesus). Those gates lead to the presence of the Lord (Jesus), and the godly enter there. I thank you for answering my prayer and saving me!" ( Psalm 118:19-21) The prophet Isaiah says the same thing in Isaiah 45:21-22: "... For there is no other God but me-a just God and a Savior-no, not one! Let all the world look to me for salvation!

What we are talking about here is self identity or personality. That is, the self identity or personality through whom God's saves us is Jesus.

we have the power to become children of GOD if we believe and are born again ONLY! We were made in God's image but became children of Satan the angel of light when eve was deceived but Adam was not and willfully sinned against GOD!

God is good all the time!

The WORD of God was made flesh, anyone receiving the Word, receives God. The Lord Jesus words are Spirit and they are Life. The seed-word was spoken into the womb of the virgin and the only begotten from the Father was born. This child conceived in Mary was of the Holy Spirit, thus being the Father, God is Spirit and is Holy. God spoke and creation started, the scripture does not say in the beginning the Father created but God said, the WORD spoken created. Ps.33:6..... We beheld His Glory in the Son, there was no eternal Son but the Only Begotten Son from the eternal Word....Who's Kingdom there is no end...

If your saved then yes, 1st john 3:2

Darkness have never defeated light.

Darkness + Light = Light

Jesus who is the light shines forenever.

Indeed the World was formless and God later created all things that exist even now we human beings.

John was Gods servant came to prepare people ready for reception of jesus and thus salvation.

are we really children of GOD?

ABRAHAM

John 1:1 " in the begginning..... .. " if the Word is God and also Jesus is the Word can we consider that this Word is also a the Bible according to the p***age of John 1:1 please answer thanks

in Gen.26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;
the word "Let Us" make man in "Our" image, according to "Our likeness; so the Father, the Word and Holy Spirit is always agree in all Their plan and purpose specially in man that He loved....

John was the first man to fulfil the new testament as He is the first man to baptize pple @ Christian

The OT tells us that God claimed the Hebrews as his own people.
Ergo 'his own' - the Hebrews

The Law is what gives us our rights. If someone knocks out your tooth you have the right under the law to take their tooth out. If someone pokes out your eye the law gives you the right to poke out theirs. Rom 8:3 tells us that the law is weak because it has no power to save a person from hell. However under grace we have power, The power to not press charges. Grace not only forgives but it gives a gift on top. Christ not only forgave us our sins but he also gave us salvation.

Always keep in mind that Stephen saw God and the Son at the same time as he was being stoned. We don't have to have full understanding of the Trinity, but to simply accept what scripture tells us.

( John 1:1)Personality or person is mental makeup, how one thinks of himself. Sports figures are famous for doing this. They think of themselves in a certain way, then they act it out. Professional wrestlers call it acting out your persona. We can say it this way, God thinks Jesus, God talks Jesus, God does Jesus, and he says, "I am Jesus."

About the person of Jesus, your person or is who you are. Today we use the word personality. This makes Jesus God's personality. The other personality of God mentioned in this verse is the Father.

Early church fathers used the word "persona" to describe God's person or personality. They were thinking in terms of the specific roles or characters God plays as he works out our salvation. In this sense they saw God as playing 3 specific roles or characters: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

His own means all the nation remember he is the maker of all things

It is comforting to the human spirit to know that we can be re-united with the Creator through Jesus Christ who through his sacrifice took away the sins which separate us from the Creator. Praise be to Him!

This is what Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist said about the mission of his son: "Praise the LORD, the GOD OF ISRAEL, for he has visited his people and redeemed them. ...Now we will be saved from our enemies. ...And you, my little son, will te called the prophet of THE MOST HIGH, because you will prepare the way of the LORD (GOD). ... His wife Elizebeth said to Mary, "What an honor this is, that the mother of MY LORD (GOD) should visit me. ...You are blessed because you believed that THE LORD (GOD) whould do what he said."

Speaking about the advent of Jesus into the world, Isaiah says this in chapter 40: "Listen! I hear the voice of someone shouting, "Make a highway for the LORD through the wilderness, make a straight smooth road through the desert for our GOD. ...Yes, the SOVEREIGN LORD is coming in all his glorious power. ...He will lead his flock like a shepherd." What could be more clearer. Then in Isaiah 9:6 he say: "For unto us a child is born, a son is given to us. ...His name shall be called ... THE MIGHTY GOD and THE EVERLASTING FATHER. ...

Yes, this is what the prophet said about Jesus!

Do you believe the prophets or men?

john 1:1 is a very known verse to us, stated here my bros and sis.it is speak of the plan of GOD,for creation,redemption,perfection.the bible tells in revelation 3:14 that Jesus is the beg. of the creation of GOD,COLOSSIAN 1:15.NOW Jesus is not GOD in the BEG.he is the center of the plan of GOD,that's why the bible tells in mat.14:33 he is the son of God.

As the song says, "God in three persons, blessed trinity." The word "person" comes from the term "persona," who you are or the character one plays. This means that we are not talking about separate entities, but the personalities of God. You can have as many personalities as you like and still remain who you are. God has three personalities, but he still remains one God. Two of these personalities are mentioned in John 1:1: Jesus and the Father. The other personality, the Holy Spirit, is mentioned in other Scriptures. All of these are the same God.

To sum it up, the personality of God through whom he made the world is Jesus.

This verse says that "the Word (Jesus) was God. This means that Jesus is not a created being as some teach, but God Himself. This is possible because what we are talking about is self identity or personality. ... God has three personalities, but Jesus is the personality through whom God created the world.

I love it. God is in my heart always, I love the bible

its true as always

Gracious is you lord. Thank you for your mercy that endure forever.
