John 1:1-2

READ JOHN 1:1-2
v.1) "In the beginning." Where else in Scripture do we find these words?
Gen. 1:1 - God created the world - "Let there be..."
I John 1:1 - "What was from the beginning..."
God's creative act was the beginning of the universe and the Word proves that, for it was spoken and the world came into being from NOTHING!
WORD - (Logos) means the essential Word, wisdom and power in union with God.
Beginning starts at Creation, but yet goes farther back - eternal in its extence. For the Word was already eternal in God and proceeded out from God to Creation. Cause > Word of God. Effect > Creation of the World.

v.2) He? Who is the He in this verse?
Mark 2:2 - He was speaking the Word to them.
Rev. 19:13 - His name is "The Word of God."
Jesus is the Word and spoke the Word - the living Word. (All other religious books; i.e. Koran, Book of Mormon, Jehovah Witness, Christian Science, are dead words, they cannot bring life to anyone or satisfy.)
Jesus was in the beginning with God - since He is the Word, it would only be natural that He is eternal. Since He is God - only natural that He would be the Sovereign Creator.
GOD IS COMMUNICATION TO US THROUGH HIS WORD! ARE WE LISTENING?
