John 1:18-20

Living Bible

¹⁸ No one has ever actually seen God, but, of course, his only Son has, for he is the companion of the Father and has told us all about him.

¹⁹ The Jewish leaders^[a] sent priests and assistant priests from Jerusalem to ask John whether he claimed to be the Messiah.

²⁰ He denied it flatly. “I am not the Christ,” he said.
