Looking at John 1 we learn that the Word which is Jesus Christ has always existed. God always was, is and will be, and He wants people to have a relationship with Him.
More than 2,000 years ago God sent John the Baptist to tell people about God.
John the Baptist came to announce the ministry of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is not always recognizable. He is revealed. God gave His people the ability to receive revelation of Him.
John the Baptist testified that he was not the Christ but after him comes the Christ. As believers we are not God, but we are here to testify of Him. Matthew 28:18 indicates that Jesus uses us to bring more people into His kingdom. When Jesus first had His earthly ministry He called disciples into His kingdom. Jesus in John 1 called disciples such as Andrew, Simon Peter, Philip and Nathanael. God uses us also to bring in disciples.
