God spoke and created the heavens and the earth. In order to speak, he had to have words. His words must be a part of him and must be eternal since they existed before he created. Furthermore, all the words of God are referred to in the singular. [1] The Word of God is eternal like God and is also the agent by which all creation was made. [2]
Since the Word IS God, all the things that make the Word of God must also be God. The Letters also predate creation. Individually and in combination forming the various words of God, they reveal God. Each letter is a metaphor which speaks of God. As with any metaphor, the actual expression has primary and secondary meanings.- ↑ Ps 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
- ↑ Joh 1:1 ¶ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
