(3) Word from God Jesus is referred to as a Word from God in three passages in the Quran. No other prophet has been described with such a title. O Mary! Behold, God gives you good news of a word from Him, who shall become known as the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary... (Quran 3:45) The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of God, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary... (Quran 4:171) God gives you good news of (a son whose name is) John, (who comes) to confirm a word from God (Quran 3:39) Christians believe that in the first chapter of the Gospel of John, Jesus is identified as the Word (logos in Greek) incarnated, or made flesh. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth... Islam provides a clear explanation of how Jesus was a Word from God. But first the process of human procreation must be understood. The Might of God is behind everything.
