Yet To Be #99

For God so loved the world

Day 10 The Word was God

The fourth book of the new testament called the Gospel According to John was written from AD 85 to AD 90.


The disciple and Apostle John looks at the “humanity of Christ while never losing sight of Christ’s divine nature.” It opens with the same words of the first book in the Bible, Genesis, in the beginning before time was the Word was, and the Word was with God and the Word was God.
The relationship between the Father and the Son is initialized in this verse and sets up the main purpose of the entire book which is to explore this unique union.


John’s presentation of Jesus as the Son of God is evident in the famous and keynote verse 16 of chapter 3.


For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believe on his name shall not perish but have everlasting life.
