In the beginning was the Word: the Word was with God and the Word was God. (Jn. 1/1) All that came to be had life in him, and that life was the light of men, a light that shines in the dark, a light that darkness could not overpower. (Jn. 1/4-5) The Word was the true light that enlightens all men; and he was coming into the world. (Jn. 1/9)
