If "in the beginning was the Word," "the Word was God," and "God created everything through him," and if "God is love," then the entire universe was created from Love. This is a startling thought, amirite?

The whole first part were "if" statements used to come to conclusion. The actual opinion is that this conclusion, if true, is startling. Don't turn this to a debate I didn't intend.

sorry i didnt quite recognize the if at the beginning. i dont really like religious debates, i was just sharing my opinion is all :)

Lol it's ok.

Well of course, because God is love.

Yes?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yes, unless every adult at my church and elementary school lied to me for 10 years.

Wait, what? Are you being sarcastic? What did they say?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No, I'm not being saracstic, I promise. I'm a bit of a Jesus freak actually. But ever since I was little, my teachers and such would always say that God is pure love and all that.

What do you mean they lied to you then?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No no, I said *unless* they lied to me.

Indeed, God created the whole universe in love.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I don't even mean just with love, or loving everything he was doing, but like THROUGH THE POWER of love. Crazy, eh?

Especially considering the state of things today...

Well, it's true. Most everything's gone to pieces.

Indeed.

It makes sense to say "the word" was/is Jesus. just my two cents :)

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Indeed, that's what that passage is referring to.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

The Word, as in Scripture, is God. You can't separate God and His scripture. I believe it's saying that the words we read are a form of God and that scriptures are not man-made, they are God Himself.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

maybe I just don't get but couldn't you leave the "in the beginning was the word and the word was god" out if all you're saying is god created everything, god = love, so love created everything?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's irrelevant. God is many persons; God = Jesus, God= The Father, God= The Holy Spirit..and Yes, God is love. But love is not God, love is not it's own being. So the whole 'love created everything' doesn't really make sense...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No, love is not its own thing. God is love. Not just "God loves;" He IS love. In essence. Everything we think of love nowadays comes from the pure love that is Him.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I'm a little confused but couldn't you still leave out "in the beginning was the word and the word was god"

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Wow, I clicked onto this, expecting to see a bunch of rude comments and conflicts, but i'm actually pretty happy with what I saw(: God IS love <3

Wait why is it so shocking?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's not so much shocking maybe as it is crazy to think about.

If we were created by God in his image and likeness, why do we kill each other and treat each other so badly? I don't the priest's answer of "Its a mystery" is going to make it these days.
