- John 1:14 meaning. The eternal Logos assumed an organic and material form. The infinite and Divine Creator of the universe became a finite and frail human being. This simple but profound statement is the founding paradox of Christianity. The eternal Word, who was with God and is God, took on human flesh and lived among us, making God’s glory, grace, and truth visible in a way never before experienced. This verse encapsulates the heart of the Gospel: God became man in Jesus Christ to dwell with humanity and provide the way for reconciliation and eternal life.
