Jesus

ohn 1:1-18 – Part Two

                Today we continue in our study on John 1.  John relays the following truths to prove Christ’s incarnation and divinity.

1.       He was in the world and even though He made it, the world did not know Him.

2.       He came to give men power and to make them the Sons of God, if they will believe in His name.

3.       He came to have mankind become born of God by a supernatural way by the will of God.  Jesus told Nicodemus that He must be born again.  This a work of the Holy Spirit.

4.       The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.  The glory of God is shown and He is God’s only Son.

5.       He is full of grace and truth and because of this we are blessed. 

6.       He is the only man who ever lived who truly saw God and He is His Son.

                John is showing us that Jesus is all He said He was and more.  Right from the beginning we are aware of who Jesus is and what He has come to do.  Our response should be, “Lord make me an instrument in your hand for your praise and glory.
