Bible Question:
According to the version of NASB and Amplified, in john 1:1-2 shows that: 'the Word was with God, and the Word was God.' My question will be based on this part. I could not understand in this part of verses because my English grammar knowlegde told me it was impossible to use the term in here 'the Word was God.' and 'the Word was with God.'. |
Bible Answer: Hi, eveready2004! I really don't follow you... Your English grammar knowledge told you that it was impossible? You mean you have a problem with God's definition of who He is: "I Am"? (Exodus 3:14) You are your mother's son/daughter... when you lived with your mother were you not part of your mother and yet apart from your mother?: The Word was God and yet the Word was with God!
