was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him,
and without Him nothing was made that was made.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkenss did not comprehend it.
John 1:1-5
Emmanuel (or, Immanuel) means, 'God With Us'
"...The Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit are three distinct yet equal Persons and indivisibly One God."
(Quote from: The Christian Life New Testament- Thomas Nelson Publishers)
God is everywhere present, but He is not in everything. If God were in everything, man could worship any object and he would be worshipping God. God is a spirit being. 'And those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.'"
(Quote from:The Christian Life New Testament- Master Outline Study on: "The Nature of God" Thomas Nelson Publishers)
As a newborn babe, you had just been born "of the flesh". But to be "Born Again" means, to be born, "of the Spirit". This is a miracle of spiritual birth that takes place the minute you believe in Jesus Christ, accepting Him as Lord and Savior of your life. Many important truths are realized with this rebirth, such as... "
1. God is a Holy Trinity (the Three in One), The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
2. Unto us a child was born of the virgin, Mary, and was named Jesus, Emmanuel, who is the Christ, the Messiah, our Saviour, the Son of God; He is also called, Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, Lord of Lords, and King of Kings. (Is 9:6, I Tim 6:15)
3. Jesus later died on the cross to pay the penalty of our sins for us.
4. He rose bodily from the dead three days after His death.
5. Soon after, Jesus rose up to Heaven, and there sits at the right hand of the Father.
6. With Jesus as the Lord and Savior of your life, there is forgiveness for your sins; if you obey Him, He will save your soul, and take you to live with Him throughout all eternity.
