John 1:1 The Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
The Word is not just written words. The Word mentioned here is Jesus, the Living Word.
So many of us focus on what version of the Bible is the true word of God. This verse states that the true Word is alive and living within us as children of God.
If we were never again able to read from the Bible or hear it read to us, we still have the Living Word of God within us to teach us and guide us.
We should read our Bibles no matter what translation we prefer, but we need to remember that the Bible is the inspired words of God, and the true Word of God is Jesus, who lives within each of us through the Holy Spirit.
We can read the words on the pages of the Bible, but it is the Living Word within us that brings to life and gives power to those words we read.
