Revelations From John 1

Dear Christians,
let us ponder on the revelation of the Word of God in John 1.
John 1:1-5 says "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God, - The same was in the beginning with God - All things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made - In Him was life and the life was the light of men - And the light shines in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not".
the first time I read this portion of the Scripture I initially felt that the Word meant God's spoken Word but through the revelation of the Holy Spirit I came to find out with strong proofs that the Word referred to, in John 1 is simply JESUS CHRIST. How do I know this;In John 1:14, the Scripture says "And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
the Word was made flesh means that it is definitely not spoken word, so let move on,
in  Rev 19:13, the Scripture says, "And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood and His name is called THE WORD OF GOD". Now it should be clear that Jesus is really the Word of God.
going back to John 1:1-5, lets read it in the actual context of Jesus who is the Word of God,
verse 4 says "in Him was life and the life was the light of men" Jesus Himself made it clear to us in John 12:46, "I am come a light into the world that whosoever believes on Me should not abide in darkness" and again in the same John 1:5 "And the light shines in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not".
My Dear Christians, there is no how we can have Jesus and still be in darkness, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE, unless we call God a liar, GOD FORBID. Jesus the light must shine in you if you have Him and every darkness in you must disappear because there is no communion with light and darkness just like in a dark room, once you switch on the light, Darkness leaves immediately.
2 Corinthians 6:14 says "Be you not equally yoked together with unbelievers for what fellowship has righteousness and unrighteousness? and what communion has light with darkness.
Brethren, you cannot have Jesus in you and yet be engaged in sexual immorality, idolatry, telling lies, impurity, greediness, indecency, and so many more sins that the devil has used to cage the destiny of God's children. Even filthy and sinful words and thoughts as listed in Ephesians 5:3-5  should never be part of you. Remember you cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of devils, you cannot be partakers of the Lord's table and the table of devils (1Cor 10:21).
You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and that of devil, and go unpunished, it is not so in the Kingdom of God, see 1 Cor 10:22 which says "Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than He? We must learn to fear God, so many have left the face of the world today because they played with God, nevertheless it only take the grace of God to get rid of any darkness in you. First start by receiving Christ as your Lord and Personal Savior, then ask Him always for the grace to live a righteous life. He needs to see a heart panting after Him in you. if you have not received Christ as your Lord and Personal Savior, Say this prayer in your heart and mean it;
 "Lord Jesus, I have come to You today, I accept that I am a sinner and I confess my sins and repent from them. I believe that You died on the cross of Calvary for my sins. Thank You for forgiving me. today I am saved, I am born again. thank You Jesus". if you said this prayer congratulations, you are now a child of God begin now to believe and enjoy your inheritance in Christ but remember as far as your eyes can see, God will give you. Be Blessed.
