1 In the beginning was
the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2. The
same was in the beginning with God. 3. All things were made by
him; and without him was not any 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 comprehended it not.
6. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7. The same
came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all
men through him might believe. 8. He was not that Light, but was
sent to bear witness of that Light. 9. That was the true Light,
which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10. He
was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world
knew him not. 11. He came unto his own, and his own received him
not. 12. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to
become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13.
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor
of the will of man, but of God. 14. And the Word was made 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. 15. John
bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I
spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was
before me. 16. And of his fulness have all we received, and grace
for grace. 17. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth
came by Jesus Christ. 18. No man hath seen God at any time; the
only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath
declared him.

"Then spake
Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of
the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in
darkness,but shall have the light of life."

The
Light of Life

Jesus,
also, said: "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any
man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light
of this world. But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth,
because there is no light in him."
| If
You Stumble, It Is Because You Cannot See. |
