1. In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2. He existed in the beginning with God.
3. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.
4. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone.
5. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.


The WORD is JESUS.

Yes , i agree that Jesus is the WORD.
King Of All Kings.
Lover of the world.
Our everything.
Nothing compares with him.

You posted a good topic.
My question is: Why is it that the word of God "you stated above" from the old testament repeatedly written in the new testament.?

Genesis 17 - the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God
Both say "Jesus the Lord" is God almighty.

Read further up on Exodus 3:14, in verse 2 it specifically says "The Lord appeared".

You say Isaiah 43:15 says the "Holy one" is God? Because the verse starts with "I am the Lord,"

Same with Isaiah 43:10, automatically starts out with "Saith the Lord"

Isaiah 44:6 same as before starts with "Thus saith the Lord".

Jesus is God, he is the one that created Earth, Heavens, Angels, and everything in between.

And Isaiah 44:6 says that the "KING OF ISRAEL" is God.


44:6 starts out with Thus saith the Lord, then goes into beside me there is no God.

John 1: 3-10 says that Jesus is the "ONE CREATOR"
And Genesis 1:1 says that the "ONE CREATOR" is God

That is because Jesus and the Father are one "God". And Genesis 1 is a "summary" of creation. Is why Genesis 2 says almost exactly same thing genesis 1 does, just in more detail.

Genesis 2
4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,

Notice "Lord God" made.

I want to share a very interesting conversation that took place between JESUS and the Jews, as recorded in the book of John Chapter 8:48-59 as reproduced below:

48.The Jews answered him, "Aren't we right in saying that you are a Samaritan and demon-possessed?"
49. "I am not possessed by a demon," said Jesus, "but I honor my Father and you dishonor me.
50. I am not seeking glory for myself; but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge.
51. Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death."
52. At this they exclaimed, "Now we know that you are demon-possessed! Abraham died and so did the prophets, yet you say that whoever obeys your word will never taste death.
53. Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?"
54. Jesus replied, "If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me.
55. Though you do not know him, I know him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word.
56. Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad."
57. "You are not yet fifty years old," they said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!"
58. "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!"

59. At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.


Please note JESUS' statement in verse 58. When God said in Genesis, "Let us create man in our image", JESUS was there!

That's also why the Bible explains that nothing was created without Christ and that HE (JESUS) is the beginning and the end. JESUS has co-existed with GOD the Father and God- the Holy Spirit from the very beginning and is God. JESUS is also referred to as the Word of God. HE is the same LORD of the old testament as HE is of the new testament. Fundamental difference is that HE has shed HIS blood as the ransom for mankind. Salvation is now therefore through HIM alone. The blood of bulls and lambs will no longer cleanse sin, as happened in the old testament. Instead of the blood of animals, JESUS laid down HIS own life once and for all and allowed HIS blood to be poured out for man's sins. To achieve this, HE had to take on human flesh and be crucified and resurrected.

I hope this helps

Amen!! That's why it specifically says "let US create man in OUR image". "Our" automatically shows their is more then one beings present.

And yes Jesus was there, as why in chapter 2 of genesis where it repeats but goes into more detail then chapter 1 it says LORD God did this, LORD God did that. For that is Jesus Christ, for he is the only LORD God. And also why Jesus never refers to his father as ours, always just says "his" father this, his father that. Also same with God, Jesus says while he is on the cross "My God, my God, why.."

And also why Jesus said -

4 Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Thanks! Jesusmyall and Cowboy. smile. Why i ask this? I am living with the Jewish religious people and there are times that i am joining with some of there gatherings and there are some questions that comes to my mind. Why the Jewish concentrated with the old testament. I am become observant to them and i do want to learn more about there belief.

Maybe this is not the point of the op but the topic touch�s some of my question.

You are welcome, Redbutterfly098. I only hope that you found the contributions helpful.

Actually, right through the new testament, you will discover that the Jews (predominantly), had problems believing that JESUS CHRIST is the messiah that the prophets talked about and that HE is the Christ. And this makes it hard for many of them to take hold of the salvation that exists through JESUS CHRIST.

But God is a covenant keeping God and HE is still with the nation, Israel for the sake of the covenant that HE made with Abraham, Isaac and Jocob. Nevertheless, God will not change the way of salvation that has been created through the death resurrection of JESUS CHRIST.

Please do much of praying for the Jews around you and try to study enough of the Bible to enable you take your Jewish friends through relevant scripture portions in both the old and new testament, in proof of JESUS CHRIST as the messiah.

God bless you richly. Amen!

Thanks!

No disrespect, but maybe some people here need to read up about the Annunaki, that landed in the middle east, 420,000 years ago? As I found out more reading up about them, who made the human species, by splicing their genes, with those of homo erectus, as I found in the entire bible! That alien race were the real creators? Plenty of evidence to back it up also! The dates and technology described correspond, with the Sumerian tablets that detailed everything also! How did races of people thousands of years ago and continents apart, know about exactly how many planets were in this solar system? Even mentioning Pluto, which wasn't officially discovered until 1930. They also mentioned a tenth planet, Nibiru, which has an orbit around our sun, of 3400 years! This is where the Annunaki come from! Astronomers and scientists around the world now accept the possible existence of a 10th planet, out in the Oort cloud. Bit of a coincidence, how when they were here, all the brilliant construction marvels, like the Pyramids, Sphinx, etc, were sprouting up everywhere around the world? Some with stone cutting techniques that would be hard to replicate nowadays, even with our technology! They were also meant to have left this planet to return to their own one in 1500bc, which was around the time of the old testament also? Read up about it, as it makes good reading!

You reason wisely beloved!
That's the WORD OF GOD. JESUS has been living and existing with the FATHER before the beginning began. JESUS was the WORD that proceeded out of the mouth of GOD when the beginning was created (Genesis 1).
GOD created the world with just a spoken WORD, and that WORD is JESUS.
And JESUS was manifested to destroy the works of the devil when no one could speak for us, when no one could pay the debt we owed (1 John 3:8).
HE came in form of a man so that humanity would believe Him and before He was manifested, Prophet Isaiah prophesied of His birth that kept people watching to see the Mesaiah whom was prophesied by the Prophets.
When JESUS began The WORK His FATHER sent Him into the world to work. He made us to know that the WORD in the old testament remains, as He said that He came not to condemn the law but to fulfil the law. Morever, the LAW of GOD was given to Moses in the old testament, but JESUS came with GRACE & TRUTH (John 1:17). Why the WORD appears both in the old and new testament is to make us know that HE is GOD.

You observe and reason very well beloved.

Nice explanation Jesusmyall & Cowboy. Your understanding amazed me seriously, and your Faith is inspiring. Thanks for helping out before me. I'm impressed.

Hi Messi, I was been thought of evolution and the nine planets in my elementary school. It was about nine planets that was been discovered then.
I wish you could reason with us and cling to the Holy Bible. You'll enjoy the goodness and sweetness of our maker the creator of the heavens and the earth.
The Holy Bible is the TRUTH. Please, try and see. Believe the report. You will testify.

Hi messi... Hope you are doing great.

I was actually wondering about exactly what you were trying to communicate and didn't quite understand that it is about evolution theory until I read the reply from Toks88.

Would you like to take one step - if you will? You can decide to prayer a very sincere prayer to the Most High God...ask HIM to show you/proof to you the truth about creation and about JESUS CHRIST and about salvation...and about heaven and hell. If you pray sincerely with a genuine desire, HE will respond because HE hears...and...sees...and acts. HE is alive! He said "draw near unto me and I will draw near unto you". He also said, "Seek and you shall find". HE is God and the creator of all things and HE will judge ALL men. The Bible is HIS word and the Bible is true! There is no other name whereby man can be saved except through JESUS CHRIST.

God bless you.

Wow! You have given us a lot of one God scriptures here

YES! OUR LORD IS ONE GOD.
THE FATHER IN JESUS CHRIST, JESUS CHRIST IN THE FATHER.
