John 1:13-15

New Century Version

¹³ They did not become his children in any human way—by any human parents or human desire. They were born of God.

¹⁴ The Word became a human and lived among us. We saw his glory—the glory that belongs to the only Son of the Father—and he was full of grace and truth. ¹⁵ John tells the truth about him and cries out, saying, “This is the One I told you about: ‘The One who comes after me is greater than I am, because he was living before me.’”
