God. Theos. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The ultimate reality. The source of all existence. Personal knowable and present.

To arrive, be present. Hēkō. What was promised has come; what was foretold now stands at the door. God's word does not announce and then delay forever. It arrives.

To give, to grant, to bestow. Didomi. God so loved the world that He gave. Giving is the language of love. The greatest gift is always the giver themselves.

Deep thought, the mind and its disposition. Diánoia. Love the Lord your God with all your diánoia. The mind is not neutral; its orientation is an act of worship. Direct it well.

That, in order that, so that. Hina. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son in order that whoever believes in Him should not perish. The purpose of the cross is clear.

To know, to understand, to perceive. Ginosko. This is eternal life that they may know You. The deepest knowing is relational not informational. God wants to be known.

To be, to exist. Eimi. When God names himself I AM, he uses this word. Existence itself belongs to him. Ground your identity in the one who simply is.

Jesus. Iesous. The Greek form of Yeshua meaning the LORD saves. The name given before His birth. In His name is salvation healing and authority over every power of darkness.

The one set apart and equipped for a specific task. Oil was poured on kings, priests and prophets in the Old Testament — the anointing meant: this one is chosen, this one is sent. Jesus stands up in Nazareth and reads Isaiah — and then says: this is Me. I am the one sent.

This, this one, this person. This is My Son whom I love. With Him I am well pleased. The words spoken over Jesus are spoken over you through your union with Him.

Life, living, existence. Zoe. I am the way the truth and the life. Zoe is divine life, not biological existence. It is the life of God shared with human beings through Christ.
