Jesus was rejected by the world, including 'his own people'. But he came as light to the whole world. And now we can be brought into His family. Not by our own works, but by the power of God.John 1:9-13The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
