Yes, John 1:1, 14, says that God became flesh. Jesus was in the world and the world was made by him and the world knew him not. Jesus is the God who became flesh to reconcile the world back to himself (II Corinthians 5:19).
When we talk about the Son of God, we refer to the God on earth and when we talk about the Father, we are referring to the Spirit of God which stays in heaven (I Corinthians 10:4). God became flesh to be able to bleed and die for the sins of mankind. God’s blood is the blood of Christ (Acts 20:28). Therefore, God is Jesus Christ. There is no other God (Isaiah 43:10-12).
Christopher C. Warren wrote an article called “Was Salvation in the Old Testament by Faith or Works?” In his article he explains that the same God which is the Spirit is the same God which became flesh.
Mr. Warren writes; The Israelites were trusting in the same God as the first Christians because Yahweh and Christ were one and the same. It was Jesus in whom the Israelites trusted to get across the Red Sea, drown the Egyptians, provide water out of a rock, provide the quail and the manna, just as Christ today provides our “daily bread” through trusting in Him (Mt. 6:11). We are saved through trusting in the same God whom the Israelites trusted in! We are delivered by the same God not because of our works but because of His! The Yahweh whom the Israelites trusted in was the same Jesus who was crucified and in whom we may be saved by trusting today.”
Christians all over the world can see that God became flesh based on the Word of God. Jesus Christ and the God of heaven is the same God. There are not three Gods nor three persons in one God. Jesus Christ is the one and only Lord and God of heaven and earth.
