Unity in Variety


...words that may be valid for all the prophets
having received and spread the message of God:

In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by him;
and without him was not any thing made that was made.
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
There was a man sent from God...
The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light,
that all [men] through him might believe.
He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.
[That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man
that cometh into the world.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him,
and the world knew him not.
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
John bare witness of him, and cried, saying,
This was he of whom I spake,
He that cometh after me is preferred before me:
for he was before me.

Gospel of John 1:1-15


And Christ taught them, saying,
Think not that I am come to destroy
the law, or the prophets:
I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Gospel of Matthew 5:17-19


I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not:
if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another,
and seek not the honour that [cometh] from God only?
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father:
there is [one] that accuseth you,
[even] Moses, in whom ye trust.
For had ye believed Moses,
ye would have believed me:
for he wrote of me.
But if ye believe not his writings,
how shall ye believe my words?


Gospel of John 5:43-47
