From the actual WORD of God?
Has it dawned on any of us believers and followers of Christ that "the Word of God" that was preached throughout the New Testament times that it WAS JESUS that was preached?
Look at the book of Acts. Not once did the Apostles preach and teach anything BUT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. So, When one thinks and wishes to exalt the words in the Bible as being God's Words, then let that person and the one who hears it realize that the Bible SPEAKS OF JESUS, who IS the Word of the Lord.
If you do not believe me, then I suggest that you do a word search on the Word of the Lord and you'll see Christ.
After all, our Lord did say that you search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life, but it is they that testify of Him.
So, the next time one wants to speak the Word, let that one speak of THE WORD because the Word does the same.
Do you agree?
By the way, hello my beautiful brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ!
I hope that your paths are firmly paved and lead to the glory of our Lord Jesus as you stop to wash the feet of the future saints on the side of the road while you show them the same love that our Lord showed us and gave us the zeal to walk after Him.

Greetings beloved in the precious name of our Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach,
1:1 In the beginning - (Referring to Gen 1:1, and Prov 8:23.) When all things began to be made by the Word: in the beginning of heaven and earth, and this whole frame of created beings, the Word existed, without any beginning. He was when all things began to be, whatsoever had a beginning. The Word - So termed Psa 33:6, and frequently by the seventy, and in the Chaldee paraphrase. So that St. John did not borrow this expression from Philo, or any heathen writer. He was not yet named Jesus, or Christ. He is the Word whom the Father begat or spoke from eternity; by whom the Father speaking, maketh all things; who speaketh the Father to us. We have, in John 1:18, both a real description of the Word, and the reason why he is so called. He is the only begotten Son of the Father, who is in the bosom of the Father, and hath declared him. And the Word was with God - Therefore distinct from God the Father. The word rendered with, denotes a perpetual tendency as it were of the Son to the Father, in unity of essence. He was with God alone; because nothing beside God had then any being. And the Word was God - Supreme, eternal, independent. There was no creature, in respect of which he could be styled God in a relative sense. Therefore he is styled so in the absolute sense.
The Godhead of the Messiah being clearly revealed in the Old Testament, (Jer 23:7; Hos 1:6; Psa 23:1,) the other evangelists aim at this, to prove that Jesus, a true man, was the Messiah. But when, at length, some from hence began to doubt of his Godhead, then St. John expressly asserted it, and wrote in this book as it were a supplement to the Gospels, as in the Revelation to the prophets.

Why do we, in Christ, seem to separate The "Word of God from the "Word" of God ?
*** :rolleyes:...I dont know why people do this Agape/Sal...and I've never understood why people that profess Christ Jesus do not Speak of and Praise Him on these types of venues...All I've see and read here recently is people tellin other people how to believe instead of sharing the Gospel and the "One" that is to be "Believed" on and in...which is Christ Jesus...He is the Only ONE True GOD and with out Him and the Grace He bestowd upon us unworthy with the Shedding of His Blood upon the Cross...we are nothing but dust blowing in the wind...does that make sense ???...
