κύριος
κύριος is the Greek word which is translated "Lord" 667 times in the New Testament, and "Master" 11 times. It is defined as: He to whom a person belongs, over whom He has the power of deciding; one's Master, one's Lord.
λόγος is the Greek word which is translated "Word" 7 times in the New Testament to identify Jesus as God in the flesh. They are:
John 1:1, 14 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. - - - 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.
1 John 1:1 - That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life....
1 John 5:7 - For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Revelation 19:13 - And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God.
There are also passages that call Jesus Christ "God!" Some of them are:
Isaiah 9:6 - For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor, The mighty God,
The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
John 8:58 - Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM.
John 20:28 - And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God!
Titus 2:13 - Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our
Savior Jesus Christ! [Note: The blessed hope is the return of Jesus Christ.]
Titus 3:16 - And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Hebrews 1:1-3 - God - - - has in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, Whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the Word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high!
Hebrews 1:8 - But unto the Son He said,
Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever: a scepter of
righteousness is the scepter of Thy kingdom!
WHEN SHARING THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST,
BE SURE TO DECLARE WHO HE IS! JESUS IS LORD!
