God’s Word says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” — John 1:1

In the beginning was the Word,
and the Thought,
and the Reason,
of God.
For the Word was always
more than words.

Where we write “Word,”
John had a bigger word,
Logos —
the Word of God,
the Thought of God,
Divine Reason,
the ordering principle of all things.

This is Jesus.
To those then who say,
Jesus is unreasonable,
you and I
may reply,
my friend, Jesus is Reason itself.
