The Word of God

God comes to us in many ways. God's Word is a favorite way. First and foremost, the Word of God is a Person. Our Lord Jesus Christ is God's Word to us in human form because everything about Him tells us what we most need to know about God. When God began to create the world, God spoke all things into being. That Word is God, too, and the Word was made flesh when Christ was born of Mary. The stories from creation to redemption are told in the Bible, so the Bible, too, is the word of God. Whenever the story is told and remembered, aloud or in the heart of a believer, the word of God is present. By the power of the Holy Spirit God comes to each of us in the Word.
