Behold His Glory, Grace, and Truth - Part 1 - John 1:14-18

John, an apostle of Jesus Christ, at the very beginning of his gospel, establishes the fact that Jesus is truly God, something that the secular world rejects. Even worse, most of Jesus' own people, Israel, refused to believe that He was both God and their Messiah.

To prepare the Jews for this long-awaited event, God appointed John the Baptist as a witness to the Jews that Jesus was truly the logos, the Word, the Light, God Himself, bringing them the knowledge of God and to take away their sins, yet most denied Him.

Beginning in verses 14 through 18 the apostle gives his own witness while including the witness of John the Baptist and the other apostles.

Our study of this passage of Scripture will involve at least two, and perhaps three parts, and we will be stepping into the tall grass (so to speak), because spending some time here will help us to understand the fullness of Christ's grace, truth, and glory.
