Seeker Overlay ON
*
In the beginning was the Word ,
and the Word was with God ,
and the Word was God .
*
He was in the beginning with God .
*
All things were made through Him ,
and without Him nothing was made that was made .
*
In Him was life ,
and the life was the light of men .
*
And the light shines in the darkness ,
and the darkness did not comprehend it .
*
There was a man sent from God ,
whose name was John .
*
This man came for a witness ,
to bear witness of the Light ,
that all through him might believe .
*
He was not that Light ,
but was sent to bear witness of that Light .
*
That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world .
*
He was in the world ,
and the world was made through Him ,
and the world did not know Him .
*
He came to His own ,
and His own did not receive Him .
*
But as many as received Him ,
to them He gave the right to become children of God ,
to those who believe in His name :
*
who were born ,
not of blood ,
nor of the will of the flesh ,
nor of the will of man ,
but of God .
*
And the Word became 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 bore witness of Him and cried out ,
saying , "
This was He of whom I said , "
He who comes after me is preferred before me ,
for He was before me ."'
*
And of His fullness we have all received ,
and grace for grace .
*
For the law was given through Moses ,
but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ .
*
No one has seen God at any time .
The only begotten Son ,
who is in the bosom of the Father ,
He has declared Him .
