“The light shines in the darknessand the darkness did not overcome it. He was in the world and the world came into being through him. He came to his own, and his own people did not accept him.”

“But to all who received him, to them he gave power to become children of God, who were born not of blood or the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but of God. And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.”
