John 1:14-18
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son,[a] full of grace and truth.(A) 15 (John testified to him and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.’ ”) 16 From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.[b](B) 17 The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.(C) 18 No one has ever seen God. It is the only Son, himself God, who[c] is close to the Father’s heart,[d] who has made him known.(D)
