mnt@John:1:1 @ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was face to face with God, and the Word was God.

mnt@John:1:2 @ He was face to face with God in the Beginning.

mnt@John:1:3 @ All things came into being through him, and apart from him nothing that exists came into being.

mnt@John:1:4 @ In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

mnt@John:1:5 @ And the light is shining in the darkness, and the darkness has not overwhelmed it

mnt@John:1:6 @ A man came into being, sent from God, whose name was John.

mnt@John:1:7 @ He came as a witness, that he might bear testimony concerning the Light - so that all men might believe through him.

mnt@John:1:8 @ He was not the Light; it was to bear testimony concerning the Light that he came into being.

mnt@John:1:9 @ The true Light, which enlightens every man, was then coming into the world.

mnt@John:1:10 @ He was in the world, and through him the world came into being, yet the world knew him not.

mnt@John:1:11 @ He came to his own creation, and his own folk welcomed him not.

mnt@John:1:12 @ But to all who receive him, to them he has given the right to become children of God, even to those who trust in his name;

mnt@John:1:13 @ who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

mnt@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and tented with us. And we gazed on his glory - glory as of the Fathers only Son - full of grace and truth.

mnt@John:1:15 @ John bore witness concerning him, and cried aloud, saying, "This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me has been put before me, for he was before me."

mnt@John:1:16 @ For out of his fulness we have all received, yes, grace upon grace.

mnt@John:1:17 @ For the Law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

mnt@John:1:18 @ No man has ever seen God; God, only begotten, who is in the bosom of the Father - he has interpreted him.
