Send us a textIn this episode of our verse-by verse, chapter-by-chapter Bible study, we start our study of the Book of John, also called John's Gospel, which is found in the New Testament of the Bible. This book is written by Jesus's disciple John. John's book is considered one of the four gospel books. Gospel means the good news. The good news of what? The good news of the birth, death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus for our sins. While the book gives us some background on Jesus, it pays a lot of attention to the identity of Jesus. Who is Jesus? The answer is: He is God. John tells us "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." In John 1:1-15, which is sometimes referred to as the Prologue or introduction to the rest of the book, God's Word tells us that the Word is Jesus. We also see in these verses that nothing created was created apart from Jesus. In John 1:1-15, God's Word introduces us to John the Baptist (this is not the same John who wrote this book) as a messenger of God. We learn John the Baptist is sent to tell other people about the coming Messiah, which is Jesus. God's Word in this Prologue also teaches us that all who receive Jesus, through faith, become children of God. WOW. As you call tell already, this episode is excitedly packed with wisdom and knowledge about our Lord and Savior Jesus.
