The Light and the Word 1/15/15

GENESIS:
And God said, let there be light and there was light.

GOSPEL OF JOHN:
In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. All things were made by him…In him was life and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness…He came unto his own and his own received him not. But as many as received him to them gave he power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe his name. Which were born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. And 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…and of his fullness have all we received grace for grace.
