The Word came

John 1:14: And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth




When we look at this verse we see that it is in the New Testament and is in the context of speaking about Jesus Christ.
Instead of saying "Jesus Christ" is says the "Word." But why would it say Word instead of plainly saying Jesus. Is there a reason for this replacement of words?
In this verse it is describing Jesus Christ as the Word. Jesus was the incarnation of God's promises, miracles, and morals. Jesus came to Earth and fulfilled the Word, He fulfilled the prophesy of His coming. Jesus kept the Law of Moses, Jesus glorified His Father and represented the truth of our loving God.
I read this and it is the entire Bible in a nutshell. God said He would save us from the very beginning and here is where Jesus actually comes and saves us. He died and now we may live eternally with God in heaven.
