What John thought of Jesus

 What John thought of Jesus

In 1John we read,

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.  

The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us.  

We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.  

We write this to make our joy complete. “ 1John 1:1-4.

John makes it clear here what the early believers in Jesus believed. He states that Jesus is the Son of God. The Christ. Through whom comes eternal life.

In his gospel John states.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  

He was with God in the beginning. 

Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.  

In him was life, and that life was the light of men....

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. ” John 1:1-4,14.

John makes it clear that Jesus is God incarnate. God in the flesh that made all things.

The question is however do you believe this?

Please think about it.
