2Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
Ok can someone explain the "and of" in this cause the way it is worded sounds like (2)
silly question. the word of God and Jesus Christ arent exactly the same thing.
John made testamony of the Word of God and of Jesus Christ.
The Word of God = all that God spoke to John/the words written in scripture.
Jesus Christ =The Word Made Flesh/God Manifest in Flesh/The Redeemer/The Massiah (sp) etc...
If God spoke to John about the future and if John also speaks about the Man Christ Jesus whom he knew and lived with, are those the same things?
of course John was speaking about two things. That doesnt mean John was speaking about 2 gods or 2 hypostasis (sp) that make up part of one god (what ever that means)
Your quesiton is kind of odd....

huh?
And is a conjunction, it connects a thought. Who is John. What did HE do? He bore record. Of what? The word of God, the testimony of Jesus and of all the things John saw

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
There is no contradiction. He bore witness to the word of God (not the Logos made flesh), the testimony of Jesus and to the things he SAW
Joh 21:25 And there are also many things, whatever Jesus did, which, if they should be written singly, I suppose the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
They SAW what Jesus did. They were witnesses to the miracles

No I did not "leave it out" I explained it.
When you have a list you separate them with commas except for the last thing in the list you use a conjuction. It's simple grammar.
John bore witness of what? the word of God, testimony of Jesus and the things John saw with his eyes
