John 1:1 says, 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God'. This seems to say that the Word was God and with God at the same time. Even with the apparent lack of mention of the Holy Spirit, this passage is frequently quoted to prove a trinity. Let us study John's original words in Greek to get a clear understanding of what he says about the Word (the Logos) and God. This is indeed a very important scripture that takes us far above space and time, all the way to the beginning.
