The God Family Vision

Christ came to Earth to declare the Father—the God Family. He didn’t come here to declare Himself, as this world believes. That deception is why this world doesn’t understand God’s plan for mankind. They are in the dark. And so are most of God’s own people! Here is the only message that will fill us with hope. It is about bringing God’s government and peace to the whole universe. It is the true gospel that mankind has never understood.

Excerpt

Where is the beginning of the Bible narrative? It is not, as most would suppose, the first verse of the Bible: “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). The first verse in John’s Gospel is about a time long before human experience, long before the universe and long before even the angels. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). Chronologically, John 1:1 actually predates Genesis 1:1.

Why, of all the books of the Bible, the gospels in particular, would John give this account? John wrote his Gospel long after the other three—Matthew, Mark and Luke. So he actually was able to give us a lot more depth.

John’s Gospel is the most profound of the four, because—as the Bible reveals—he had a special relationship with Jesus Christ. He had a deeper understanding of who Christ really was. And because he outlived all the other apostles, he also had a longer time to meditate on this message.

John is the only biblical writer who wrote about the Word. (He also authored the books of 1, 2, 3 John and Revelation. In 1 John and Revelation he also mentioned “the Word.”) What is the meaning of “the Word”? Who is the Word? Why was John the only Gospel writer to mention the Word?
