A New Year
A New Beginning
John 1:1-18
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him
nothing was made that has been made.
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men.
5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness
has not understoodit.
John 1:1-18
6 There came a man who was sent from God; his
name was John.
7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that
light, so that through him all men might believe.
8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a
witness to the light.
9 The true light that gives light to every man was
coming into the world.
John 1:1-18
10 He was in the world, and though the world was
made through him, the world did not recognize
him.
11 He came to that which was his own, but his own
did not receive him.
12 Yet to all who received him, to those who
believed in his name, he gave the right to
become children of God—
John 1:1-18
13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human
decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling
among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the
One and Only, who came from the Father, full of
grace and truth.
15 John testifies concerning him. He cries out, saying,
"This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after
me has surpassed me because he was before me.'"
John 1:1-18
16 From the fullness of his grace we have all received
one blessing after another.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and
truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and
Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him
known.
John 1:1-18

  • 22. A New Year A New Beginning John 1:1-18
  • 23. 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understoodit. John 1:1-18
  • 24. 6 There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. 7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. 9 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. John 1:1-18
  • 25. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— John 1:1-18
  • 26. 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John testifies concerning him. He cries out, saying, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.'" John 1:1-18
  • 27. 16 From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another. 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known. John 1:1-18
