This gospel, and especially the first chapter of John (and especially the first 8 verses), are saying this: Jesus Christ of Nazareth is indeed God in the flesh. God has become human so that humans might be made in the image of God. John is not just writing, but proclaiming that the long awaited ruler of the world was now here! 2000 years later….this is still scandalous.
