The Gospel of John 1:2-3 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God Says …

“The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” (John 1:2-3 KJV)

Having established the truth that the Word is God in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are to recognize further this truth that He is eternity past and eternity future. He was with God when time began at creation. That was when physical things were made manifest from that which is unseen. He is "the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not" (Romans 4:17b NIV). "All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made."

He was the spoken Word from whose image we were made. We and all things originated from Him. It is written: “Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness,”” (Genesis 1:26b NIV). If we did not originate in Christ, it is not real. We are merely a smoke that dissipates in an instant, back to dust and no more. We may be able to touch, see and relate with each other and even posses the things around us. But unless we believe Christ is the origin of it all, it is not real. Without Christ, our life is like a house of cards. It crumbles, scatters and flies out into nothingness because it's not real to begin with.

Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Word, is the foundation of reality, and apart from Him, nothing exists. Apart from Him there is only death and void. Everything outside of Him is only an illusion, a mere zombie at best. There is no life. He is the life breathe in us (Genesis 2:7). It is written: “Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.” (1 John 5:12 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!
