What’s the Word?

 (ID: 2550)

What does it mean that Jesus, who is entirely God, came to live in an entirely human body? And how does that matter for our lives? When the disciple John called Jesus “the Word,” his Hebrew audience understood what he meant: Jesus was the ultimate self-disclosure of God. Alistair Begg unpacks how Jesus makes His dwelling among us and shows us God’s glory as one uniquely qualified to justify man before God, because He is both man and God.


14And zthe Word abecame flesh and bdwelt among us, cand we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son4 from the Father, full of dgrace and etruth.
