Jesus Christ is the Word of God. He is the Beginning. He is also the End
(John 1:1-3; Revelation 21:6). He is 'the Word...made flesh. 'We have seen His
glory' (John 1:14). This is only the beginning. When He returns, we shall see
His glory - 'we shall see Him as He is' (1 John 3:2). From Him, there is
creation (John 1:1-3). From Him, there is salvation (John 1:12-13). In Him, we
receive the forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit
(John 1:29,32-34). He is the Word of God, the Lamb of God and the Son of God
(John 1:1,29,34). When we look at Jesus Christ, we see God - 'the Word was God'
(John 1:1), 'No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of
the Father, He has made Him known' (John 1:18). Do you want to know what God is
like? - Look at Jesus (John 14:9). What do we see when we look at Him? -
'the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world' (John 1:29).
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you" (Isaiah 60:1). * Let the light of Christ shine. * Let the words of Scripture lead to thoughts of the Saviour. * In Christ, we are called to salvation, sanctification and service. * Be wise – worship the Saviour. Is 60:1-6; Ps 72:1-7,10-14; Eph 3:1-12; Mt 2:1-12
