Often we recognize that in seeing Jesus (God the Son), we get a glimpse of the nature and character of God the Father. However, John 1 affirms that all the fullness of God is in Jesus. Thus as Jesus walks about this earth through this Gospel, He is fully God. The God of Exodus 15:1-4, Isaiah 6:1-7, Psalm 145:3, Isaiah 40:28, Deuteronomy 33:26-27, Psalm 139:1-5, 13-19, Exodus 20:18-29, Deuteronomy 7:21, Job 26:7-14, Psalm 147:4-5, Jeremiah 10:12-13, Zephaniah 3:17.

As Jesus enters onto the pages of John’s Gospel, he comes bearing the fullness of God. That fullness is full of Grace and Truth. And from His Fullness we all receive Grace in place of Grace already Given. See also Colossians 1:19
