   What does the "WORD" in John 1:1 implies in the Bible?
   
   In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

   God's Word - the Truth - the Light - the Creator
   He speaks and it is. God is the Word. His Word is a part of His very self.
   God bless you.

      May you be blessed in Jesus Christ name. You have said it all. Now how about making this comprehensive to the science minded individuals?

      You'll understand better if you get into the Spirit. Science will never give you enough info. If you really want to know the meaning within the Lord's Word, pray for revelation and be sincere. The Lord will answer if you have faith. God bless you.

   The International Standard Version states "In the beginning, the Word existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God." The "Word" is Jesus. If you continue to verse 14 you'll read that Jesus is the Word in the flesh. The first chapter of Genesis describes God's creation. The Old Testament only alludes to Jesus. It is in the New Testament that Jesus is born. The author of this Gospel testifies that Jesus existed even in the beginning, but not as man; He existed with God; and He was God (as one of the Trinity).
   
   I also agree with mothersofnations response and comment. God bless.

      Nowhere does the bible state, or teach this. You just imagine it says this

   I read someones explanation of that WORD being God and then I understand were God is. I do not know if ppl will understand this or not and it really doesn't matter but I will try anyway.  Jesus says that God is within us..all of us not some of us.  For many millions of years when man first happened on the earth we did not talk like we do today.  We used grunts and things of that sort.  When we learned how to speak, and remember we are God, that first word or communication of thoughts to others that we made into words......follow me?  We are the Word of God.  We create things with our thoughts as Jesus said when he told us to be careful with our thoughts.  Humans are the only species that have the capability to speak other languages and to speak in more ways then just grunts. WE are the WORD of GOD.

   It is the voice Of God. The heaven and earth were created by the spoken word of God.
   God said "Let there be light, and there Was Light'
   The Greek word logos, translated "word" is more closely related to "speech" or "I say"  It is where the word logic comes from. The Greek word for "word" is Lexi, and it is where we get the word "lexicon" as in vocabulary, and language
   
   In the beginning was the Voice, and the Voice was where God was, and the Voice was God.
   You can substitute Voice with speech.
   
   We have speech like our Creator.

      What if we say "In the beginning was communication, and communication was with God and communication was God. I perceive that the idea of "communication" is GOD Himself personified. I don't know if anyone get me here?
