Arrogance

 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.
