JOHN –The Word Became Flesh • Unit 1: Jesus’ Public Ministry • Lesson 1: From Eternity to Here Page 9
1 The Word (Christ) was in the beginning. The
Word was with God. The Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 He made all things. Nothing was made without
Him making it.
4 Life began by Him. His Life was the Light for
men.
5 The Light shines in the darkness. The darkness
has never been able to put out the Light.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name
was John.
7 He came to tell what he knew about the Light
so that all men might believe through him.
8 John was not the Light, but he was sent to tell
about the Light.
9 This true Light, coming into the world, gives
light to every man.
10 He came into the world. The world was made
by Him, but it did not know Him.
11 He came to His own, but His own did not
receive Him.
12 He gave the right and the power to become
children of God to those who received Him. He
gave this to those who put their trust in His
name.
John 1:1-12, 15-18, 29-36, 43-45
...15 John told about Christ and said, "I have
been telling you about this One. I said, 'He is
coming after me. He is more important than I
because He lived before me.' "
16 From Him Who has so much we have all
received loving-favor, one loving-favor after
another.
17 The Law was given through Moses, but
loving-favor and truth came through Jesus
Christ.
18 The much-loved Son is beside the Father. No
man has ever seen God. But Christ has made
God known to us.
...29 The next day John the Baptist saw Jesus
coming to him. He said, "See! The Lamb of
God Who takes away the sin of the world!
30 I have been talking about Him. I said, 'One is
coming after me Who is more important than I,
because He lived before I was born.'
31 I did not know who He was, but I have come
to baptize with water so the Jews might know
about Him."
32 Then John said, "I saw the Holy Spirit come
down on Jesus as a dove from heaven. The Holy
Spirit stayed on Him.
33 I did not know Him then. But God sent me
to baptize with water. God said to me, 'The
Holy Spirit will come down and stay on Him.
He is the One Who baptizes with the Holy
Spirit.'
34 I saw this happen. I am now saying that
Jesus is the Son of God."
35 The next day John the Baptist was standing
with two of his own followers.
36 Jesus walked by. John looked at Him and
said, "See! The Lamb of God."
...43 The next day Jesus wanted to go to the
country of Galilee. He found Philip and said to
him, "Follow Me."
44 Philip was from the town of Bethsaida.
Andrew and Peter were from this town also.
45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We
have found the One Moses wrote about in the
Law. He is the One the early preachers wrote
about. He is Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of
Joseph."
