FROM THE BEGINNING - WISDOM, THE WORD AND JESUS
WISDOM, THE WORD AND JESUS
From the beginning wisdom and the Word existed. It appears obvious from the following scriptures that Jesus, wisdom and the Word are one in the same.
John wrote that the Word was God, and it was made flesh in the form of Jesus Christ. Also, John, this disciple whom Jesus dearly loved, so beautifully summed it up in this one verse: “He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.” John 1:10
Scripture:
Speaking of wisdom in The Proverbs we read that it was set up from everlasting.
The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. (Proverbs 8:22-31)
Speaking of the Word John writes.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 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. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. (John 1:1-5)
And John discribes The Word as becoming Jesus Christ.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)
WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED?
Old and New Testament scriptures teach us that wisdom, the Word and Jesus were here from the beginning.
Our Father appreciates the fact that you are trying. May God’s blessing be upon this
study of His word, Amen.
