Steven, I don't know if I missed much on this thread, for I saw many,
many posts on this subject, but it would seem that it IS John's opinion
that LOGOS is one of the names of God's Son from Rev 19:13 for KEKLHTAI
TO ONOMA AUTOU hO LOGOS TOU QEOU. Does'nt it seem that John uses the
term LOGOS with more than one sense?

Sincerely,
Dan Parker
