It’s late. Just got through driving all day.

John 1:1-18 is wonderful! But don’t overlook what the writer says in verse 18: that the Son dwells in the bosom of the Father. That is literal. The verse says that no man has seen God at any time.
In John 4:23,24, Jesus Christ declares that God the Father is a Spirit.

The Father is the Word. This can be proven by what the Son of God said several times, in the book of John, that the words were not his, but his Father’s. Christ declared the Father to be in him, and he in the Father. Literally.

As I said: where is the Father NOT at?

Isaiah 42:1-7 is also worth reading.......nice and slow.

Good night and God bless

The WORD (logos) "was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." Jesus, the Son of God, IS God in the flesh. Our God is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit - three, yet ONE God.

Glad you're home safe. Have a nice night and a pleasant Sunday.

The Father is the Word.

Not according to John:

No one has seen the Father. He is Spirit. We have seen the Word, the Christ.
