John 1:18

The Prologue To John's Gospel

¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is. ¹⁹ And this is the witness of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to him with the question, Who are you?
