The story of Jesus started long before that famous first Christmas. Jesus was actually there when nothing else existed.

Key Points:

  • Jesus existed even before he was born on earth. John 1:1-2
  • Jesus is actually God himself. John 1:1
  • God created everything through Jesus. John 1:3
  • Jesus is the light that shines in the darkness. John 1:5

Memory Verse:

John 1:1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.
