December 22, 2024 - THE INVISIBLE BECOMES VISIBLE

Life Mission Church

Advent: I Will Draw Near to - John 1

Jobey McGinty

The “Word of God” is both with God and is God. It is distinct, yet not an “it,” but a “He.” John tells us that Jesus is the Word of God, but before being revealed as “Jesus,” He was the invisible Word of God. God wanted to be known fully and intimately. Why is He the “Word” of God and not the hand, arm, or mouth? Our words come from us and are intertwined with us, revealing who we are. Other body parts don’t define or reveal our true selves; words do. Christ, as the Word of God, is the lamp to our feet, given so we don’t have to guess who God is. He was given to you to know the one true and living God, and to give you true life.
