| Genesis 1:1-3 |
| At the first God made the heaven and the earth. And the earth was waste and without form; and it was dark on the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. |
| John 3:16 |
| For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life. |
