A Powerful Word – Sovereign Grace Bulletin Articles

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” | John 1: 1-3

Look at this name and title John gives to the Lord Jesus again — “The Word”.

“In the beginning was the Word.”

That is a statement so full of meaning that I have no hope of expounding it.

Christ is called the Word because he is the Wisdom of God.

He is called the Word because he is the Person spoken of in all the Old Testament prophecies and the sum of all the promises.

Our Redeemer is called the Word because he is the Speaker, the Revealer and the Interpreter of the Father’s will.

And he is called the Word because he is the Image of the invisible God, the Offspring of the Father’s mind, the Express Image of his Person, just as our words (if honestly spoken) are the express image of our minds.

“And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.” | Acts 9: 6

Here is a powerful word — “Born”

Salvation is the gift of life, eternal life.

When our Lord declares, “Ye must be born again,” he is saying you must be the object and recipient of Divine power.

Just as God created the world, God must create life in your soul.

Just as God breathed into Adam and made him a living soul, so God must breathe into you the breath of life by his Spirit, or you will perish in your sins.

This is what I am saying: you are spiritually dead, helplessly lost by nature. Your only hope is that God the Holy Spirit will give you life — “You must be born again!”
