and one of them, a lawyer, asked, trying him,

And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life?

Ye are of your father the Devil, and what your father desireth ye are ready to do. He was a murderer from the beginning; and he abideth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of it.

yet ye know him not; but I know him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you. But I know him, and keep his word.

Far be it! yea, let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written, "That thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art arraigned."

Now what is implied in his ascending, but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

Zenas the lawyer and Apollos forward on their journey diligently, that nothing may be wanting to them.

Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honor;

But we see him who was made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, on account of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor; that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

Who is the liar, but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, who denieth the Father and the Son.

If any one saith, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he that loveth not his brother, whom he hath seen, how can he love God, whom he hath not seen?

He that believeth in the Son of God hath the witness within him; he that believeth not God hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed in the witness which God hath borne concerning his Son.
