The true light, which gives light to every man, came into the world. (Isaiah 49:6) The world was made through him. He was in the world and the world did not recognize him. He came to his own. They did not receive him! He gave the right to become children of God to all who received him. Even to those who believe in his name. They were born from God. It was not from blood, or the will of the flesh, or the will of man.

They reasoned among themselves which of them was the greatest. When Jesus detected the reasoning of their heart, he took a little child, and set him by his side. Then he said to them: Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. He who is least among you will be the greatest!

I will deny, before my heavenly Father, anyone who denies me before men. Do not think I came to bring peace on the earth. I came not to bring peace, but a sword. My coming will cause a separation. A man will be against his father and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. read more.
A man's enemies will be from his own family. He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me. He who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me. Anyone who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet's reward. Anyone who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward.

Jesus responded: He that is bathed must wash his feet. He is clean everywhere and you are clean, but not all. He knew who would betray him. That is why he said you are not all clean. After he washed their feet he put his outer garments on and sat down. He asked: Do you know what I have done to you? read more.
You call me Teacher and Lord and you are right for I am. If the Teacher and Lord washed your feet you should wash one another's feet. I have given you an example. You should also do as I have done to you. Truly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his master. Neither is one that is sent greater than he that sent him. If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them. I do not speak about all of you. I know whom I have chosen! This way the scripture may be fulfilled: 'He that eats my bread lifted up his heel against me.' I tell you before it happens. So that when it takes place you may believe that I am he. Truly I say to you, he who receives whom ever I send receives me. And he who receives me receives him who sent me.

Whoever receives a little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. John spoke up: Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in your name. We tried to stop him because he does not follow us. But Jesus said: Do not stop him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

All may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father that sent him. Truly, Truly I say to you, he who hears my word, and believes him that sent me, has everlasting life. He will not receive judgment for he has passed out of death into life. Truly I tell you, the hour is coming when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear (listen) (understand) will live. read more.
The Son has life in himself just as the Father has life in himself. For the Father gave him life. And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. Do not wonder about this for the hour is coming when everyone in the grave will hear his voice. They will return. Those who did good will have the resurrection of life. Those who did evil will receive the resurrection of judgment. I can do nothing by myself. So I hear and judge and my judgment is righteous. I do not seek my own will, but the will of him that sent me. If I alone testify about myself, my testimony is not enough truth. There is another who testifies about me. I know that his evidence about me is true. You sent people to John the Baptist and he has witnessed about the truth. The testimony I receive is not from man. However I say these things that you may be saved. He was the lamp that burns and shines. You were willing to rejoice for a season in his light. The testimony I have is greater than that of John. The works I do are the works the Father gave me to accomplish. They testify that the Father has sent me. The Father who sent me testifies about me. You have not heard his voice nor seen him at any time. You do not have his word dwelling in you. This is because you do not believe in the person he has sent. You search (investigate) (study) the Scriptures because you think that in them you have everlasting life. These Scriptures testify about me. And yet you will not come to me that you may have life. I do not accept glory from men. I know that the love of God is not in you. I came in my Father's name and you did not receive me. If another came in his own name you would receive him. How can you believe? You seek praise and glory from one another? Why do you not seek the glory that comes from the only God? Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. Moses on whom you have set your hope is a plaintiff against you. It is a fact! If you believed Moses you would believe me. He wrote about me! If you do not believe his writings how will you believe my words?

I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse; and he who sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns (diadems). He had a name written that no man knew, but himself. He was clothed with a garment dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. read more.
The armies in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with a rod of iron. He treads the winepress of the fierceness and anger of Almighty God.

Jehovah is the true (faithful) (right) God! He is the living God and the everlasting king. The earth quakes at his wrath. The nations cannot endure his indignation.

He gives life and breath to all.
