Biblical perspectives : Jesus as logos based on John 1:1-18 : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

Abstract

This thesis addresses the concept of logos within a biblical context in John 1:1-18, particularly how it applies to history, Christianity, and the concept of a liberal arts education. The film also speaks to how John 1:1-18 influences Christian ideas regarding of the start of the universe and of Jesus' character, asking "what does it mean to say Jesus is the embodied knowledge of God" and "how can Jesus' identity of embodied knowledge fuel the identity of those who strive to be like Jesus." The film encompasses the perspectives of pastors, professors, and students all seeking to find their own understanding on this topic.
