Prophecy and Promise | Ep 4.1: In the Beginning was the Word
Description
You’re listening to Branch 2 – Prophecy and Promise, Part 4: The Birth of Christian Theology. This is Episode 1: In the Beginning was the Word
In this episode of Theology Unpacked, Dr John explores how the Gospel of John introduces Jesus as the divine Word (Logos), blending Jewish scripture and Greek philosophy.
Unlike the human-focused narratives in Matthew and Luke, John presents the Word God’s wisdom and ordering force—is both with God and is God, becoming flesh in Jesus. This concept lays the foundation for early Christian theology, especially the development of the Trinity.
