Who is Jesus? Chapter 1 Jesus was in the Beginning with God

You may wonder where was Jesus before He became a baby born in the city of Bethlehem of a young Virgin girl named Mary?

Understand that our Father God is a spirit not seen with visible eyes, and from the beginning, Jesus also was in spirit form.

Jesus was Spirit not flesh until the Holy Spirit placed the seed containing Jesus into the womb of Mary. At that precise moment Jesus because human flesh, however his blood was divine and of his Father God. Scientist tell us the baby's blood is not from the mother but from the father. This fact reveals that the blood of Jesus was sinless, holy and pure and from His Father God. This fact alone is the reason that the blood that Jesus shed on the cross is able to wash away our sins and change us into a person pleasing to God.

As we take a quick look at the gospel of John chapter one we see; "In the beginning was the WORD and the WORD was with God and the Word was God. As we continue reading we discover that John was speaking of Jesus the WORD and also saying Jesus was God and was working in tandem with the Father creating the world.

We take a look at the first book in the Bible; Genesis chapter 1, and we view that the Holy Spirit of God hovered over the waters. Each time our Father God spoke WORDS; a portion of our world was formed. Light was split from darkness, Waters were divided from the sky; the sun, moon and stars came into being, trees and vegetation came, and creatures of all types of animals were created. Jesus was there in the beginning with His Father God and John declares that by Him (Jesus) were all things created.

On day six, God made man in His own image and placed him in a beautiful garden. Soon God realized the man would be lonely so putting him to sleep and taking from his side a rib; God formed woman. They were happy and each evening they walked and talked with God. They were given only a couple of rules. Two trees were off limits, but everything else was good food. Do not take of The Tree of the "Knowledge of good and evil," and the tree of LIFE, God told them. Satan came to tempt Eve telling her she needed to be wise and know things and eating the fruit would bring her knowledge; and Eve fell for it. So, the woman ate of the forbidden fruit and gave some to Adam, causing them to be removed from the garden and now mankind must toil and work for a living. God slew a lamb as a sacrifice and made garments to cover Adam and Eve's nakedness. This was the first blood sacrifice.

God gave them a promise that he would send a redeemer and many Prophets in the Old Testament told how a virgin would bring forth a savior, who would be born in Bethlehem. Micah 5:2 "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times."

Isaiah the prophet in chapter 53 revealed how the Savior would suffer and die for the world, and that by his stripes we would be healed.

So for this chapter, we view Jesus as a Spirit with His Father God in heaven, waiting for the promise and prophesies to come to pass. Let us think about this, and research the Scriptures mentioned as we wait for the next chapter to learn more about Jesus.
