 So Jesus Christ is the Word of God. He is the revelation of God to mankind. The first thing we see in verses 1 and 2 is He is the eternal Word. It says, in the beginning was the Word. Just that one little word, was, tells us that God is eternal. It's not that in the beginning God became the Word. No. In the beginning was the Word. The Word was in the beginning. The Word is eternal. The Word has always been. And He will always be.
