In the first chapter of the Gospel of John, the Word, who is actually Jesus Christ, is identified not just as Savior, Son, or whatever, but as God Himself. "In the beginning was the Word" - the Word has always existed "...and the Word was with God..." - the Word is a part of God "...and THE WORD WAS GOD." - self-explanitory "Through him all things were made, without him nothing was made that has been made." - the Word created everything. Without the Word, nothing would exist. The whole universe would fly into nothingness. "AND THE WORD BECAME FLESH AND DWELT AMONG US." - God, who has always existed and created all things, put himself in a human form that we know and love so well - Jesus Christ.
