The Gospel of St. John, Chapter One, 1 -13. (revised by me)
1. In
the beginning was the eternity message, and this message was with God, and the eternity message
was God.
2. The message was with God in the
beginning.
3. Through the message all things were made;
without the message nothing was made that has been made.
4. In the message was life, and that life
was the light of all people.
5. The light of the message shines in the
darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
6. There came a man who was sent by God;
his name was John.
7. This man came as a witness concerning the light of eternity message, so that all men might believe in this message.
8. John himself did not bring the light to men, he came only as a witness to the soon to arrive appointed light giver of the
eternity message.
9. The true light of the message of eternity
that gives light to every man was coming into the world.
10. This light of the eternity message was
given to one man who was in the world, and though the eternity message made this world, the
world did not recognize the message that was with him.
11. That one man with the eternity message of
light for all people walked among us but we the people of the message did not receive him.
12. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his message, he has given the right to become children of God –
13. children born not of natural descent, nor of
human decision or a husband’s will, but awakened to God.
