John 1:11

11 He came to his own [things], and his own [people] did not receive him.

John 1:11 In-Context

9 The true light, who gives light to every person, was coming into the world.

10 He was in the world, and the world came into being through him, and the world did not recognize him.

11 He came to his own [things], and his own [people] did not receive him.

12 But as many as received him--to those who believe in his name--he gave to them authority to become children of God,

13 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of a husband, but of God.
