In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made;
without him nothing was made  that has been made.
In him was life, and that life was the light of men.
The light shines in  the darkness,
but the darkness has not understood it.
Yet to all who received it,
to whose who believed in his name, 
he gave the right to become children of God,
Children born not of natural descent,
nor of human decision 
or a husband's will,
but born of God.


(John)
