Hi Ranibow Maker, The Gospel of John is my favorite as well. While reading it, it increased my faith tremendously. I still find great comfort in it as I read it almost daily. I would love to join you in a verse by verse study. Starting with John 1:1, when it says 1:In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2:He was with God in the beginning. I take these two verses to mean that it's referring to Jesus. 4:The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. What is your take on this? God Bless Sister in Christ |

Hi Cynthia, I am glad you are joining me: 4:The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. In the beginning was Jesus, the Word,he was with God in the beginning and this Jesus was/is God Himself. This Word, Jesus entered into this world of time and came to live with humanity/Israelites. The incarnation is so crucial, that we have someone who came to share our humanity so that He might pay the penalty for our sins by dying in our place. A God could not do this, only the God man Jesus was qualified. We shall speak about these qualities or qualifications later on. During His lifetime here with us Jesus showed His glory to us, a glory that is of the only one who has ever come from the Father and this glory is full of grace and truth. During his life here with us and I think John is refering both to Jesus' life in Israel as well as his life among humans.. Jesus demonstrated to us that He shares in the glory of God. Here is the next verse for you. The next sequence after this verse, begins the ministry of John the Baptist. John 1:5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. Cynthia, I am going to take this as the verses come unless I need clarification then we can both do some research. Your brother in Christ Andy |

Cynthia: -These are some of the last sayings of Jesus as recorded in John 19:25b -30 (NRSV). "Meanwhile, standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 1. 26When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son. 2. ” 27Then he said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home. 3. 28After this, when Jesus knew that all was now finished, he said (in order to fulfill the scripture), “I am thirsty.” 29A jar full of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge full of the wine on a branch of hyssop and held it to his mouth. 4. 30When Jesus had received the wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.'
