If any one has the will to do God's will, he will find out whether my teaching is from God, or whether I speak on my own authority.

He that speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he that seeks the glory of him that has sent him, he is true, and unrighteousness is not in him.

Has not Moses given you the law, and none of you carries out the law? Why do you seek to kill me?"

The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?

Because of this Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

I know him, because I am from him, and he has sent me.

And many of the multitude believed on him, and said, When the Christ comes will he perform more miracles than this man has performed?

Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and I go to him that has sent me.

He that believes in me, as the Scripture has said, out of him shall flow rivers of living water.

Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?

The officers replied, "Never has a man spoken like this!"

Has any one of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?

Is a man judged by our law before it has given him a hearing and has knowledge of what he has done?

Then they answered him, "You are not from Galilee, too, are you? Search the record and see that no prophet has ever come from Galilee."

And putting her forward, they said to him, Master, this woman has been taken in the very act of sinning against the married relation.

Now Moses in the law has commanded us that such women should be stoned, but what sayest Thou?"

And when they continued asking him, rising up, he said to them, Let him that has not sinned among you first cast the stone at her.

And Jesus rising up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those your accusers? Has no man condemned you?

And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.

And in your law also it has been written, 'The testimony of two men is true.'

I am one who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.

I have much to say about you and against you: but he who sent me is true and what he has said to me I say to the world.

Then Jesus said to them, When you shall lift up the Son of man, then shall you know that I am [the Christ]; and I do nothing of myself; but I speak these things as the Father has taught me;

and he having sent me is with me, he has not left me alone, for I always do the things which please him.

a slave has no right to be in the house for life: but the son is settled there.

I know that you are children of Abraham; but you seek to kill me because my word has no place in you.

but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I have heard from God; Abraham did not do this.

Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come from him; for neither am I come of myself, but he has sent me.

Ye are of the devil, as your father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father:

The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?

The Jews said unto him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death.

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who has died? and the prophets have died: whom makest thou thyself?

Your forefather Abraham exulted in the hope of seeing my day. He has seen it and is glad of it."

The Jews therefore said unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

And his disciples put a question to him, saying, Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?

Jesus answered, Neither has this man sinned nor his parents, but that the works of God should be manifested in him.

I must work the works of him that has sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.

and said, "Go and wash them in the pool of Siloam" (which means One who has been sent). So he went and washed them and went home seeing.

Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

They say therefore again to the blind man, What dost thou say of him, that he has opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

but how he now sees we know not, or who has opened his eyes we know not; ask him, he is of age, he will speak for himself.

Therefore his parents said that, He has majority, ask him.

We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this man is from."

The man answered and said to them, It is a strange thing, that you know not whence he is, and he has opened my eyes.

Since the world began it has not been heard that any one opened the eyes of one born blind;

They answered and said to him, Thou hast been wholly born in sins, and thou teachest us? And they cast him out.

Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and he it is that speaketh with thee.

When he has got them all out, he goes before them, and the sheep go after him, for they have knowledge of his voice.

but the hireling, who is not the pastor, nor has the property of the sheep, seeing the wolf come, leaves the sheep, and flies away: so the wolf seizes some, and disperses the flock.

Because he is a servant he has no interest in the sheep.

Even as the Father has knowledge of me and I of the Father; and I am giving my life for the sheep.

No one is taking it from me; I lay it down of my own free will. I have the authority to lay it down, and I have the authority to take it back again. This is what my Father has commanded me."

and many of them said, He has a demon, and is mad; why do you hear him?

Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?

That which my Father has given to me has more value than all; and no one is able to take anything out of the Father's hand.

Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works [and many acts of mercy] from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?”

Jesus answered them, "Has it not been written in your law, 'I said, ye are gods?'

If those to whom God's message was addressed were called gods??nd the Scripture cannot be set aside??36 do you mean to say to me whom the Father has consecrated and made his messenger to the world, 'You are blasphemous,' because I said, 'I am God's Son'?

do you tell him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am the Son of God?

Jesus answered, are there not twelve hours in the day? he that travels by day does not stumble, because he has the light of this world to see by.

but if he travels in the nighttime, he does stumble, because he has no light."

He said these things, and after this he said to them, Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him.

Then they said to him, Lord, if he has fallen asleep he will recover.

Then Jesus, therefore, said to them plainly, Lazarus has died;

Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life; he that believes in me, even if he has died, shall live,

And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?

She said to Him, “Yes, Lord; I have believed and continue to believe that You are the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed), the Son of God, He who was [destined and promised] to come into the world [and it is for You that the world has waited].”

And having said this she went away and called Mary her sister, privately, saying, The teacher has come and calls for you.

(Now Jesus has not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha went to meet him.)

And some of them said, Could not this man, who has opened the eyes of the blind man, have caused that this man also should not have died?

Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, said to him, Lord, by this time he smells; for he has been dead four days.

Then they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted his eyes above, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me;

and I knew that thou hearest me always; but for the sake of the multitude who stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

Then Jesus said, Let her be. Let her keep what she has for the day of my death.

And Jesus, having found a young ass, sat upon it; as it has been written,

Then the Pharisees told one another, "You see, there is nothing you can do. Look, the world has gone after him!"

Jesus told them, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

He who is in love with life will have it taken from him; and he who has no care for his life in this world will keep it for ever and ever.

Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour. But for this cause came I to this hour.

Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again!" The crowd standing there heard this and said that it was thunder. Others were saying, "An angel has spoken to him."

Jesus answered and said, Not on my account has this voice come, but on yours.

Jesus said to them, For a little time longer the light will be among you; while you have the light go on walking in it, so that the dark may not overtake you: one walking in the dark has no knowledge of where he is going.

Now for all the Signs he had performed before them, they did not believe in him ??38 that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: Lord, who has believed what they heard from us, And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

so that what the prophet Isaiah spoke might be fulfilled when he said: "Lord, who has believed our message, and to whom has the Lord's power been revealed?"

Therefore they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,

"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, so that they might not perceive with their eyes, and understand with their mind and turn, and I would heal them."

Then Jesus said with a loud voice, He who has faith in me, has faith not in me, but in him who sent me.

and whoever sees me sees Him who has sent me.

I have come as a light into the world, so that no one who has faith in me will go on living in the dark.

The one who rejects me and doesn't receive my words has something to judge him: The word that I've spoken will judge him on the last day,

because I haven't spoken on my own authority. Instead, the Father who sent me has himself commanded me what to say and how to speak.

And I know that what he commands brings eternal life. What I speak, therefore, I speak just as the Father has told me."

And before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that the hour has come when He must depart out of this world to His Father, having loved His own who were in the world, with divine love, He loved them perfectly.

knowing that the Father has given all things into His hands, and He came out from God, and is going away to God,

Jesus answered and said to him, 'That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'

Peter saith to him, 'Thou mayest not wash my feet -- to the age.' Jesus answered him, 'If I may not wash thee, thou hast no part with me;'

Jesus told him, "Whoever has bathed is entirely clean. He doesn't need to wash himself further, except for his feet. And you men are clean, though not all of you."

Verily, verily, I say to you, The bondman is not greater than his lord, nor the sent greater than he who has sent him.

I'm not talking about all of you. I know the ones I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: "The one who ate bread with me has turned against me.'
