John 1:1-8 ▼

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

2 He was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; and without him was not one thing made that was made.

4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness did not comprehend it.

6 A man was sent from God, whose name was John.

7 He came for a witness, that he might bear testimony concerning the Light, that all men through him might believe.

8 He was not the Light, but sent that he should bear testimony concerning the Light.
