The Word Became Flesh
  • The Word became flesh and lived among us for a while and we beheld his glory. ''John 1:14''

    That word ?lived among us? is an interesting word. John is the only one to use it. It`s the Greek word ?skenoo? and comes from the word ?to pitch a tent, ? from the Greek word for ?tent.? It`s from the Old Testament, from the Greek version of the Old Testament story about God and the Tabernacle. Jesus came in and ?pitched a tent?,and ?tabernacled? among us. In going from the Tabernacle to Jesus, it`s like God has taken His next step in this idea,and we beheld His glory.

    Why was sending Jesus to live on earth such an effective way for God to tell people about Himself?
    Jesus came to earth to provide a way for us to able to come to God and learn about God. Jesus taught how we can be saved and forgiven thought Him as our intermediate between God and us.

    My heart fills with warmth when I read these verses. It reminds me of how closely I'm communicating with God when I'm reading my Bible.

    Indeed, Jesus is the Living God!
    Before Jesus came here with us, it was already foretold by the prophets. How amazing God the Father sent his son to save us all!

    The Word Became Flesh
        What is their to say im speechless really. The son of God stepped down from 42 generations to save dirt like me from hell. Awww he does love me and I'm touched. Jesus became the "light" of my world and I'm glad i am God's child. I have been adopted into GODS family. Grace has been shedded upon me time after time. UNDESERVED grace because of Jesus Christ!!!!!!! Without Christ im lifeless and in denial about being lifeless now that I've experienced life without Christ and life with Christ despite all the tactics thrown at me by satan i know who my heart belongs to: Christ and i want to 4ever live life WITH CHRIST! Awwww I really do love GOD! but becuz he 1st loved me!

    The Word Became Flesh

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
    All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. And the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light. That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
    He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
    But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw His glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth. John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’”
    And of His fullness we all received grace upon grace. For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The one and only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
