Hebrew Yahveh

 

Unless otherwise noted, all scripture quotations are from the New King James Version

 

1. What is eternal life?

 

“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent” (John 17:3).

 

2. Why?

 

Because the Messie Yeshua is the word [logos] made flesh (John 1:14).

 

3. What is the Word?

 

“The sower sows the word [logos]” (Mark 4:14).

 

“The seed is the word [logos] of God” (Luke 8:11).

 

4. What is the result?

 

“that the word [logos] of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke” (John 12:38).

 

5. What happened?

 

“Then the word [logos] of God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith” (Acts 6:7).

 

6. Can the word mean something else?

 

Through Yeshua, the promise, the word [logos] given to Abraham was fulfilled.

 

“For this is the word [logos] of promise: “At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son”” (Romans 9:9).

 

7. Is the word [logos] of God what was given to Israel?

 

“But it is not that the word [logos] of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, “In Isaac your seed shall be called.” That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed” (Romans 9:6-8).

 

8. The word is God’s promise.

 

We learn that the “word” [logos] is not God but rather God’s promise made to humanity at the beginning of creation that came to fulfillment in Yeshua, the Messiah. That is why John could write: “In the beginning was the Word [logos], and the Word [logos] was with God, and the Word [logos] was God” (John 1:1). This promise was fulfilled when Yeshua was born, the Messiah of Israel (John 1:14).

 

9. What can you do?

 

Like the Bereans, they received “the word [logos] with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so” (Acts 17:11).
