God... as described by JOHN




  • John 1:1  From the first he was the Word, and the Word was in relation with God and was God. 
  • 2 This Word was from the first in relation with God 
  • 3 All things came into existence through him, and without him nothing was
  •  4 What came into existence in him was life, and the life was the light of men.
  •  5 And the light goes on shining in the dark; it is not overcome by the dark.
  •  6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
  •  7 He came for witness, to give witness about the light, so that all men might have faith through him.
  •  8 He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light.
  •  9 The true light, which gives light to every man, was then coming into the world.
  •  10 He was in the world, the world which came into being through him, but the world had no knowledge of him.
  •  11 He came to the things which were his and his people did not take him to their hearts.
  •  12 To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:
  •  13 Whose birth was from God and not from blood, or from an impulse of the flesh and man's desire.
  •  14 And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.
  •  15  John gave witness about him, crying, This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me is put over me because he was in existence before me.
  •  16 From his full measure we have all been given grace on grace.
  •  17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ.
  •  18 No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is.

  1. Power to become the sons of God

    " But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"
    Joh 1:12


    To all those believed Him,to them Jesus gave the authority to be called the children of God.

    The Son of God(JESUS) is transforming us into children of God when we believe in Him, when we believe Him as the Son of God..
    Those who believe truly in Him will enjoy a new life.. a new abundant life. Jesus said I came into this world to gave u a life that is abundant.."I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
    John 10:10
    AMEN! God Bless

  2. No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is.

    No one can see God ,because God is Spirit(Joh 4:24).But Jesus has made clear what God is. Jesus is the manifestation of God in flesh, a manifestation that human eyes can perceive. Those who saw Jesus, have seen God.(Joh 12:45).
    Jesus is the only name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Neither is there salvation in any other (Acts 4:12)
