“Before time was ever started, Jesus was there. Jesus was with God and Jesus was surely God. Before ever any woods or prairies or herds, He was there. At the very first rodeo when the chute opened He was right there with God” John 1:1-2
How long has Jesus existed? Well, the down-home honest truth is, Jesus has always existed. Even before the beginning of time, before anything else, before any planets or stars or moons or galaxies, Jesus was already there!
And besides that, He has always been with God. In fact, He and God are One. There was a time when Philip, one of Jesus’ disciples asked Jesus to show him the Father. Jesus answered Philip, “Son, if you have seen Me, you have seen the Father” (John 14:9).
And the Apostle Paul, talking about Jesus said, “He is the image of the invisible God” (Colossians 1:15) . . . “For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in boldly form” (Colossians 2:9).
Isn’t that something, that God loves us so much that He actually revealed Himself to us in the person of His own dear Son. How can anyone possibly refuse such love and sacrifice as that?
