Everywhere in Scripture we are invited to pursue knowledge and discover what is around us in all the exciting mysteries God has hidden in life.
It is only as we come to the level of divine light, understanding as it is in the Scriptures, that we begin to put all the pieces together. Only then can we see who we are, why we are here, and get the answers to all the puzzles and conundrums of life.
So when John opened his gospel, he went straight to help us understand:
that Jesus is God himself
He is the Creator and became part of his creation
He is the One who is at the center of our faith.
John 1: 1-4 "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 all mankind."
1 John 1:3-4 "Our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy. "
