Greetings again betsy123, We encounter the spoken Word of God in Genesis 1:1 not the second person of the Deity.
This is the spoken Word by the One God, Yahweh, God the Father. God the Father is the Creator.
Genesis 1:3 (KJV): And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Could I ask if you consider the “flesh” of Jesus was “God the Son” transformed from a Divine Being to a human being? Looking at how you understand the word “became”, and I note you may not like the KJV rendition “made”, are you saying that “The WORD Became Flesh” obliterated the connection of Jesus with the flesh of Mary and hence the flesh of David? The Scriptures clearly teach that Mary was the mother of Jesus and hence part of the flesh of Jesus is from Mary and hence he is a descendant of David.
Luke 1:31–32 (KJV): 31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
Trinitarians do not like looking at Matthew and Luke’s record of the conception and birth of Jesus. They like quoting John 1:1 and John 1:14, but they do not link these with Matthew and Luke. Thus they try to fiddle with the word “begotten”. For example in the Athanasian Creed: “The Son is of the Father alone; not made, nor created; but begotten”, but I understand they believe this is speaking about Jesus being begotten from or before eternity. Compare the three records:
Matthew 1:20–21 (KJV): 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Luke 1:34–35 (KJV): 34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: [b[therefore[/b] also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
John 1:14 (KJV): 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.
Trinitarians do not believe that the phrase “the only begotten of the Father” refers to his conception in the womb of Mary, but note the margin of Matthew 1:20 for “conceived”: “GR. begotten”. Jesus is not the transfer of God the Son into the womb of Mary, but he was begotten by God the Father, by the power of the Holy Spirit and as a result he is The Son of God, and Mary is his mother as clearly taught by Luke 1:35.
