The Word in person!

John 1: 14            ESV

¹⁴ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

All throughout the Bible, God tells us exactly what He’s like.

He shows us His nature…He reveals His creative ability…and He shows us how He deals with people.

Let’s not miss that He also reveals His many purposes, and exposes the truth.

He actually interacts with people like you and me, and He teaches us who He is.

Then along comes Jesus, and He clearly demonstrates who He is.

Maybe if we consider the Words of the Bible in the form of a person, rather than just words written on paper, we can get a true look at the heartbeat of God.

Is that how you see the Bible? Are you able to get an intimate picture of who God is?

Are you studying your Bible that deeply?

Jesus, the very Word, made His home among all of us.

He healed and took care of those who were hurting, and He still does that today.

The Word of God should look a lot like Jesus, and it does, because it is.

Is that what you think when you open up your Bible? You do open your Bible, don’t you?

Just like He was over 2,000 years ago, He’s still pouring out His radical love to people like you and me.

But you’d be surprised at the number of people in the world, that don’t get one bit excited about that…
