John 1:1-5, 9, 12

John 1:1-5 NLT

In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.

John 1:9 NLT

The one who is the true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.

John 1:12 NLT

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.
