"HE was in the beginning with GOD"!!
John 1:1-4 (ESV)
"1 In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD.
2 "HE was in the beginning with GOD".
3 All things were made through HIM, and without HIM was not any thing made that was made.
4 In HIM was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."
A little over 2,000 years ago JESUS came to mankind as a human. HE came for the express purpose of paying the sin debt that only a Holy GOD could pay.
When I hear people say that we celebrate the birthday of JESUS we act as though HE only came into existence when HIS earthly ministry did, when In fact, according to scripture JESUS has been here since the beginning! HE forever has been, and forever will be!
The caption over the scriptures above clearly says "The WORD became flesh", not the WORD was born as flesh! JESUS was made manifest to "this world", but HE has always been, for HE is part of the Triune GOD. John 1:2 states "HE was in the beginning with GOD" and so HE has been forever! Although the physical BEING was born of a virgin, HE forever has been, and forever will be!
Don't let the enemy blind you into believing that GOD is continually adjusting HIS Plan to counteract the evil perpetuated by satan! GOD is Sovereign and HE loves us so much that HE sent a part of HIMSELF to ransom "this world" from darkness known as itself.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. May we forever glorify HIM, not only on this day, but everyday throughout eternity!!!
