If I Were the Devil In 2021

A Tribute to Paul Harvey

“He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” – John 8:44 (ESV)

The Logos as God

The Logos was with God in the beginning; indeed, He was God. John’s depiction of Jesus as the Logos is multi-faceted. Truly, the Son of God is the Word (the English translation of the Greek, Logos). In context of the Greco-society, the concept of “logos” was that of the ultimate knowledge. Thus, the goal becomes knowing Knowledge. Indeed, by declaring Jesus to be Logos, John is stating that Jesus is the ultimate of knowledge and of Being (in being One with I Am), God of all and over all.

Logos

Word Became flesh

“He said to them, ‘How is it then that David, in the Spirit, calls him Lord, saying, “The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet”? If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?’ And no one was able to answer him a word.” 

Matthew 22:43-46

I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You are yourself the answer. Before your face questions die away. What other answer would suffice?
