THEME SONG - JESUS IS THE LIVING WORD OF GOD
The Central Passage on Jesus Christ as the Word of God is to be found in the first chapter of John’s Gospel.
1. Jesus Christ was existing in the beginning as the Word of God. He was being with God and He was being God (John 1:1-2). Jesus is called the WORD of God because He is the fullest and most precise expression of Who God Is. They Deity of the Word is demonstrated in that all things in the physical universe without exception came into being through Him (John 1:3). In the Word exists Life, which provides Light to all men (John 1:4). Men live in the darkness. Though the darkness could not overpower the Light, neither could it comprehend the Light (John 1:5).
Therefore, the only logical conclusion is that Jesus Christ is fully and completely God, with all the rights and privileges thereof. He is the Living Word of God because, being physically alive and visible to us humans in His humanity, He is also the express image of God. He is God’s Living Message to us! He is God come in human flesh!
Without doubt, all praise and honor and glory and worship must be ascribed to Jesus Christ, and all submission must be humbly and fearfully offered to Him!
