Default more on the Word

Looking at this term to distinguish it in usage from the term "Son". The Word or Logos can mean the plan, thought, or mind of God. The incarnation was a predestined plan-an absolutely certain future event- and therefore it had a reality attached to it that no human thought could ever have. The Word can also mean the thought of God as expressed in the flesh, that is, in the Son. What is the difference, therefore, between the two terms "Word" and "Son"? The Word had preexistence and the Word was God (the Father), so we can use this term without reference to humanity. However, the Son always refers to the incarnation, and we cannot speak of the Son in the absence of the human element. Except as a foreordained plan in the mind of God, the Son did not have preexistence before the conception in the womb of Mary. The Son of God preexisted in thought but not in substance. The Bible calls this foreordained revelation the Word (John 1:1, 14).

He( jesus) is the image of the invisible God (jehovah), the firstborn of all creation; 16because by means of him(jesus) all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All [other] things have been created through him and for him. 17Also, he is before all [other] things and by means of him all [other] things were made to exist,
