Who is Jesus?

Characteristics will be highlighted in the following post that are attributes of Jesus.

Good Morning! Happy Sabbath!  God gave us Saturday, the 7th day of the week to spend with Him when He blessed it during Creation.  So I felt this was a good day to start this study again.

John 1:1-5 is what I am opening with today.

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 nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not [a]comprehend it.

I used the NKJV from Bible Gateway.  I really like these verses right here.  Mostly because I heard them in a really catchy song in choir in high school.  However, also because it tells me that Jesus existed always and is the reason I exist.

What is The Word?  John 1:14 further explains that The Word became flesh and lived with us; the Son who came from the Father.  He is full of grace and truth.

This isn't the first verse about Jesus being the Word or the attributes of the Word.  Hebrews 4:12 say that the Word is alive, active, sharper than double-edged swords, can divide non-physical/physical, judges the unseen thoughts/attitudes.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 explains that all scripture is God-breathed and used to make sure those serving God are prepared to do so.

James 1:22 and Psalm 119:9 explain that you have to do what the Word says, not just listen.

Isaiah 40:8 says the Word is forever.

Psalm 18:30 says that the Word is flawless.

Hebrews 1:3 really wraps up who the Son (The Word) is by explaining he is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.  After he provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
