Doctrine and Covenants D&C 67:11
"For no man has seen God at any time in the flesh, except quickened by the Spirit of God."
New Testament John 1:18
"No man hath seen God at any time"

Shared words: seen God at any time

Divergences: the revelation adds two qualifications the gospel verse does not carry - 'in the flesh' and the exception 'except quickened by the Spirit of God' - converting an absolute statement into a conditional one; 'hath' reads 'has'. The gospel's continuation about the only begotten Son has no counterpart. The run 'seen God at any time' stands at three distinct frozen verses in the corpus: these two and 1 John 4:12, disclosed because its verse continues into a different subject.
