Advent is a time to meditate on the coming of Christ at Christmas so we can sing the carols not just with our lips but with our hearts. In the first five verses of John’s gospel, we get a picture of Jesus before time began, which teaches us the significance of Christmas morning.
Application Questions:
1. Why does John go so far out of his way to explain that Jesus, the Word, is fully God?
2. How can Jesus the Author give you direction, purpose, and meaning in your life in a way other things can’t?
3. Do you understand Christmas as an inspiration or a rescue? How does your life reflect that understanding?
