In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the
beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In
him, was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness
comprehended it not. John 1:1-5

Other examples:
And this judgement: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the
light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does
not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. John 3:19-20

Text B: Formal Register

The Philippine K-12 Curriculum and accreditation agencies mandate schools to shift from teacher-centered to
learner-centered instructional practices aimed at “making the curriculum relevant to the learners and
“nurturing the holistically developed Filipino.”

In its fourth year of nationwide implementation, it is plausible to investigate whether the curriculum
developer’s expectations of learner-centered pedagogies in the larger scale are implemented in the
classrooms. Direct studies provide crucial insights into the applicability of learner-centered curriculum in the
Philippine school setting.
