Genesis 1:1–3
When God began creating the heavens and the earth, the earth was at first a shapeless, chaotic mass, with the Spirit of God brooding over the dark vapors. Then God said, "Let there be light". And light appeared.
John 3:16
For God loved the world so much that He gave his only Son so that anyone who believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
