Every year at Christmas, Christians celebrate the human birth of Christ. John 1:14 tells us that the Word “became flesh and dwelt [or ‘tabernacled’] among us”. That is to say, Christ camped among men. For a deeper appreciation of this fact, we parse through John 1:14 in the following points:
- The Arrival of the Word
John 1:14a: “And the Word became flesh…”
- The Glory of the Word
John 1:14b: “…and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father…”
- The Word is full of Grace and Truth
John 1:14c: “…a…full of grace and truth.”
