The Answer Is Found In John 1
Before being born by Mary, Jesus name is “the Word”. God is a Triune being who has ALWAYS existed and is not bound by Time as we are. There was the Father, The Holy Spirit and the Word. Jesus always existed because He is God.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.” (John 1 KJV)
The Word (Jesus) created everything in our physical universe.
“All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” (John 1 KJV)
The Word came by the Virgin Mary to be born as a human and still as God in the person of Jesus, the anointed. That is Jesus. The Christ. True life everlasting can only come by believing on Christ. Jesus is called The Light because He is the truth!
“In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John (Don: the baptist). The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not.” (John 1 KJV)
Jesus was born Jewish, to God’s chosen people, but they rejected His claim that He is the foretold Messiah and Christ come to be the once for all final blood sacrifice (Hebrews 9 & 10) for the sins of the whole world (1 John 2:2). All who believe on Him and His name and believe in the Atonement for sins through His death burial and rising have had all their sins (past/present/future) paid in full by Christ on the cross. They have become the sons of God, born again in the Spirit (John 3, 1 Cor. 15:1-4, Eph. 1:13-14, Colossians 2).
“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” (John 1 KJV)
