(John 1:13-16)
They did not become God's children by natural means, that is, by being born as the children of a human father; God himself was their Father.
The Word became a human being and, full of grace and truth, lived among us. We saw his glory, the glory which he received as the Father's only Son.
John spoke about him. He cried out, "This is one I was talking about when I said, 'He comes after me, but he is greater than I am, because he existed before I was born.'"
Out of the fullness of his grace he has blessed us all, giving us one blessing after another.
