Beginnings

"In the beginning was the Word, and tit's_ Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1. Go as far back in eternity as we will, before ever was a creature, angelic or human, in all the universe of God, we are told, "the Word was." It never began to be, for "the Word was God"-the Eternal.
"In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth." Gen. 1:1. Now we have divine power speaking worlds into being by the fiat of His will. "He spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast." Psalm 33:9.
"That which was from the beginning" (1 John 1:1), as explained by the writer himself (John 15:27 John 1:6), takes us no further back than the incarnation of the blessed Son of God. "The Word became flesh, and dwelt [Lit. tabernacled] among us (and we have contemplated His glory, a glory as of an only-begotten with a father), full of grace and truth"! J.N.D. Trans.
Thus all Scripture is in divine harmony with itself, and calls for our subjection to it, that we may believe and thus understand.
