" Polycarp, I think I'm ready".
The young man smiled. He picked up his pen. He wrote ' according to John' at the top of the page.
" In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him and without him nothing was made that was made".
Polycarp grinned. " It is as if God is speaking directly through you".
" In him was life and the life was the light of men and the light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it".
" That was beautiful Master".
" There was a man sent from God whose name was John. This man came from a witness to bear witness of the light that all through him might believe".
" All through John might believe?".
John nodded his head.
" He was not the light but was sent to bear witness of that light".
" That was the true light?".
" Yes, that light which gives light to every man coming into the world".
