“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” – John 1:1

“All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.” – John 1:3

“That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name…” – John 1:9-12

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” – John 3:16

 

We hold these revelations in the highest esteem, that God created the heavens and the earth, things seen and unseen, known and unknown. This same God created all life and has given all life its purpose. Our human existence is a part of this divine creation, but mankind, by its rejection of God, suffered the cataclysmic consequences of separation from God. Because of God’s love for us, He sent His Son in the form of a man, and in this form He saved the world. We treasure this gift and share it with the world: that Christ is the answer to all of the world.

“There is nothing wrong about this world that cannot be healed by what is right about Christ” – RML
