1:11He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

1:12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

1:13Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

1:14And 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.
