scripture

John 1:1–14

summary

John 1:1–14 is presented as the heart of Christmas: Jesus, the eternal Word, is Creator, Light, Savior, and the One who reveals God’s glory by becoming flesh. Though the world was marked by darkness and rejection, Christ entered it to bring life and adopt believers into God’s family by grace. Christmas is the celebration of God’s grace and truth made visible in Jesus, who gives hope, peace, and light in a broken world.
