In the Beginning Was the Word — John 1:1–5 | Verse by Verse Bible Study | The Gospel of John

John opens his Gospel by declaring the eternal nature and divine identity of Jesus Christ — “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” In this verse-by-verse Bible study of John 1:1–5, we examine: • What “the Word (Logos)” means biblically • The deity and eternality of Christ • Jesus as the source of life and light • Why darkness cannot overcome the Light This teaching is part of an ongoing expository study through the Gospel of John, focused on clear, contextual, Scripture-centered teaching.
