Here is a great video on understanding the logos in John 1:1. I have copied the slides here for easier reference.

One of the main problems in understanding John 1:1-3 comes when people confuse grammatical gender with biological gender. In other words, the Greek logos is a grammatically masculine noun, but this doesn’t mean that God’s word is an actual person, a human male no less! That “the word” should...

The main problem is to confuse grammatical gender with biological or sexual gender. In other words, just because the Greek logos is a masculine noun doesn’t mean God’s word is an actual Person, a human male no less! That “the word" should not be capitalized and therefore confused with a person...

“The Word” in the Prologue to John’s Gospel In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by it, and without it nothing was made. In it was life… John 1:1-3 Tyndale’s New Testament of 1534 (modern...

“The Word” in John 1:1 Is Not Christ For most Trinitarians the “Word” (Gk logos) in John 1:1 is viewed as being Jesus in a pre-existent form, because at the end of the verse, we read that “the Word was God.” So, for proponents of the Trinitarian view of Jesus this must surely mean that Jesus...
