Who else is waiting Wotsup? The religious leaders and others of the first century were told outright Jesus existed before them but they wouldn't accept the truth. You claim to accept the Bible but fail to accept Jesus clear statements that say he is God's first creation. Most others accept without question what their churches teach them and think Jesus is God.

Here's what the Holy Scriptures teach.

Jesus is indeed the way, the truth and the life. [John14:6]

(Revelation 3:14) “To the angel of the congregation in La·o·di·ceʹa write: These are the things that the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God:

Jesus was there with other angels when the universe was created.

(Job 38:7) When the morning stars joyfully cried out together, And all the sons of God began shouting in applause?

He was the first of those sons of God to be created. He is ''the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God.''

He was sent to earth to save those that will believe and act on what they learn. That you accept the Scriptures as coming from God is commendable, but you also need to accept Jesus as the Messiah if you are to be saved.
He is much more than a mere man. He is now ruling as king of God's Kingdom. This is the Kingdom he urged his disciples to pray for.

(Matthew 6:9, 10) “You must pray, then, this way: “‘Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. 10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also on earth.

This Kingdom will soon smash all human rulership that stands in opposition to God's sovereignty.

(Daniel 2:44) “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. And this kingdom will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it alone will stand forever,

There is extreme urgency for acting now before this occurs.

Couldn't connect to your other post, but I found this rather odd.

the Word was a god. This makes no sense, is this from the Jehovah Witness Bible?

Even if the Word is Jesus it is still correct of John to say "the Word was God", because Jesus here is receiving the full imprimatur of God as His Word, while not implying that a Trinity is a literal reality.

Jesus would never be referred to by a lower case g for god for any reason. John used correct punctuation rather than saying that God was the Word.

You need to have a chat with whomever makes this stuff up and put them right, they don't seem to have a clue.
