John 1:1 and the deity of Christ

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the Word. John 1:1, translated from the NA28 Greek text

εν αρχη ην ο λογος και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον και θεος ην ο λογος John 1:1, Textus Receptus

εν αρχη ην ο λογος και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον και θεος ην ο λογος John 1:1, Tischendorf New Testament

εν αρχη ην ο λογος και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον και θεος ην ο λογος  John 1:1, Wescott and Hort New Testament

Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος, καὶ ὁ λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν θεόν, καὶ θεὸς ἦν ὁ λόγος. John 1:1, NA28

We live in a time where truth is under attack from every side. Even amongst those who claim to be Christians there is a growing number demanding that we hold God’s truth as relative in order to unoffensive to everyone. We hold that John 1:1 teaches that the Apostle John was teaching, inspired by the Holy Spirit, that Jesus Christ is deity, is a member of the Holy Trinity, and pre-existed His incarnation as a man.
