The Word in the Beginning, at His Birth, and at the battle of Armageddon

Jesus is the chief cornerstone (Eph.2:20) of His living body (Col.1:24), the church of God (1 Cor.10:32).

Jesus is the chief cornerstone of the church of God because He IS God (Re.1:6).

The Word was WITH God in the beginning. The Word was God (Jn.1:1-3 below).

Jesus is the Word manifested in the flesh, who dwelt among us (Jn.1:14 below).

The Word of God will fight the battle of Armageddon (Re.19:13, Re.19:15 below).


In the Beginning

Jn.1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (Jn.1:14).

Jn.1:2 The same was in the beginning WITH God (Jn.1:1 above).

Jn.1:3 All things were made by him (the Word); and without him was not any thing made that was made.


The Birth of the Word/Jesus

Jn 1:14 And the Word (Jn.1:1-3 above) was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Re.12:5 And she brought forth a man child (Jn.1:14 above, Matt.1:21 below), who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron (Re.19:15 below): and her child was caught up unto God, and [to] his throne.

Matt.1:21 And she shall bring forth a son (Re.12:5 above)., and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.


The Word of God at the battle of Armageddon

Re.19:13 And he [was] clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God (Jn.1:1-2, Jn.1:14 above).

Re.19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron (Re.12:5 above): and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

The church is the bride of Christ Jesus

The bride of Christ (2 Cor.11:2), the Lamb’s wife (Re.19:7-8) ARE the entire church of God throughout all ages (1 Cor.10:32, Gal.1:3).

The entire body of Christ (the church - Col.1:24) are in heaven at the Seventh Trumpet (Thess.4:16-17).

The marriage of the Lamb occurs in heaven as Mystery Babylon falls (Re.19:2-3).

The marriage of the Lamb has taken place at Revelation 19:7, and His wife prepares herself (Re.19:8) to join the Lamb and are the armies that follow The Word of God (19:13), the KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS (Re.19:16), to the battle of Armageddon (Re.19:14).

After the Millennium, in the “new” earth, that “great city, the holy Jerusalem”, descending out of heaven from God (Re.21:10), is prepared as a bride adorned for her husband (Re.21:2) because the saints of the most High (the Lamb’s wife) are in the descending city (Dan.7:18, Dan.7:22).
