Dan, What would happen if you substituted any other name for the name of John? Perhaps Daniel or Mark? What if the beginning is your beginning, you as a babe? What if John is you as an adolescent? What if the man he bares witness to is you. The one you were, and the one you will become (or perhaps have become) again? Can you at least see how the story might also apply to you too? Remember when we were young, we were fearless, we thought we were immortal, and that we could do anything? What if he is the one we bear witness to, have forgotten, and seek to return to? Could there really be harm in this type of insight, or only healing? " John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. 15 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. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace." Peace, Darrin
