Q

Why can’t we see the Word as a separate person?

A

God’s Word is something that belongs to Him and is an expression that comes from Him, not a separate person in the Godhead.

The Word of God does not imply a distinct person any more than a man’s word implies that he is composed of two persons..

God’s Word is a part of Him and cannot be separated from Him.
