'My Father' in the Bible

Then He said to the pigeon-dealers, "Take these things out of here! Stop using my Father's house as a market place!"

Then He answered them, "My Father is still working, and so am I."

But I have testimony that is higher than John's, for the works which my Father has committed to me to finish, the very works that I am doing, testify to me that the Father has sent me;

I have come in my Father's name, but you refuse to accept me. If anyone else should come in his own name, you would accept him.

Then Jesus said to them, "I most solemnly say to you, it was not Moses who gave you the real bread out of heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the real bread out of heaven,

All that my Father gives to me will come to me, and I will never, no, never reject anyone who comes to me,

For it is my Father's will that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and that I shall raise him to life on the last day."

So He continued, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless it is granted to him by my Father."

Then they began to say to Him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You do not know either me or my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father too."

So Jesus said to them, "When you lift the Son of Man (on the cross), you will know that I am the Christ, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but that I say exactly what my Father has instructed me to say.

I am telling you what I have seen in my Father's presence, and you are practicing what you have learned from your father."

Jesus answered: "I am not under the power of a demon; on the other hand, I am honoring my Father, but you are dishonoring me.

No one has taken it from me, but I am giving it as a free gift. I have the right to give it and I have the right to take it back. I have gotten this order from my Father."

Jesus answered them, "I have already told you so, but you do not believe me. The works which I am doing on my Father's authority are my credentials,

My father who gave them to me is stronger than all, and no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.

Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good deeds from my Father. For which of them are you going to stone me?"

do you now say to me whom my Father has set apart to it and sent into the world, 'You are a blasphemer,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?

If I am not doing the things that my Father is doing, do not believe me.

If anyone serves me, he must continue to follow me, and my servant also must go wherever I go. If anyone serves me, my Father will show him honor.

In my Father's house there are many dwelling places; if there were not, I would have told you, for I am going away to make ready a place for you.

If you knew me, you would know my Father too. From now on you do know Him and you have seen Him."

At that time you will know that I am in union with my Father and you are in union with me and I am in union with you.

Whoever continues to hold and keep my commands is the one who really loves me, and whoever really loves me will be loved by my Father; yes, I will love him myself and will make myself real to him."

Jesus answered him, "If anyone really loves me, he will observe my teaching, and my Father will love him, and both of us will come in face-to-face fellowship with him; yes, we will make our special dwelling place with him.

You have heard me say that I am going away and coming back to you; if you really loved me, you would rejoice over my telling you that I am going to the Father, because my Father is greater than I.

"I am the real vine, and my Father is the cultivator.

By your continuously bearing abundant fruit and in this way proving yourselves to be real disciples of mine, my Father is glorified.

If you continue to keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain in His love.

I no longer call you slaves, because the slave does not know what his master is doing; I now call you friends, because I have told you everything that I have learned from my Father.

Whoever continues to hate me continues to hate my Father too.

If I had not done things among them that no one else has ever done, they would not be guilty of sin. But now the fact is, they have seen and even hated both my Father and me.

Jesus said to her, "Stop clinging to me so, for I have not yet gone up to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them that I am going up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

Jesus again said to them, "Peace be with you! Just as my Father has sent me forth, so I am now sending you."
