John 1:1-11 ▼

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 He was with God in the beginning.

3 Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made.

4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.

5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

6 There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John.

7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.

8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.

9 The TRUE Light who gives light to every man was coming into the world.

10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him.

11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
