The Son of God was in the beginning, at creation (John 1:1-3, 14). The coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to earth, was prophesied hundreds of years before He was born (Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:21). In fact, Jesus is found throughout the entire Bible. How exciting and encouraging to read of our Savior in all 66 books of the Bible.
