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, has a view to his own glory: but he that has a view to his glory that sent him, deserves credit, and is a stranger to all imposture.

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.

But from the crowd many believed in him and were saying, "Whenever the Christ comes, he will not perform more signs than this man has done, [will he]?"

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

He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes from the descendants 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."

they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.

now Moses has ordain'd in the law, that such criminals should be stoned: but what is your opinion?

But when they continued asking Him [about the woman], He stood up and said to them, "That person among you who has never sinned should be the first one to throw a stone at her."

And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?

and yet if I did judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I am with the father who has sent me.

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

I indeed do bear testimony of my self, but the father, who has sent me, beareth witness of me likewise.

I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world.

Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.

The One who sent Me is with Me. He has not left Me alone, because I always do what pleases Him.”

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

I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you.

but now ye seek to kill me, the man who has told you the truth, such as I have learnt it of God: Abraham did not act thus.

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.

you, who have the devil for your father, will execute the designs of your father: he was a murderer from the beginning, and deserted the truth, since he has no love for the truth: when he lyes, he speaks like himself: for he is a lyar, and the father of a lyar.

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.

thereupon some of the Pharisees said, this man has no divine mission, because he does not observe the sabbath. but said others, if he be an impostor, how can he do such miracles? and there was a schism 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 do not know, or who has opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself.

Because of this his parents said, He has maturity, ask him.

We know that God has spoken to Moses. But this man—we don’t know where He’s from!”

The man answered and said to them, Now in this is a wonderful thing, that ye do not know whence he is, and he has opened mine eyes.

Throughout history no one has ever heard of someone opening the eyes of a person 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 brought all his own outside, he goes ahead of them. The sheep follow him because they recognize 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 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."

Many of them were saying, “He has a demon and He’s crazy! Why do you listen to 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?

My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them 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 ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am 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 this, and then He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I’m on My way to wake him up.”

Then the disciples said to Him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.”

So Jesus then told them plainly, “Lazarus has died.

Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

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 that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who has come into the world.

And having said this, she went away and said secretly to her sister Mary, The Master is here and has sent for you.

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

but some of them said, this man who has given sight to the blind, could not he have prevented Lazarus's death?

Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the one who had died, said to him, "Lord, he is stinking already, because it has been four days."

then they took away the stone from the place where the corps was laid. and Jesus lifting up his eyes to heaven said, "father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

I know that thou hearest me always: but I say this, because of the people here present, that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

Jesus answered, “Leave her alone; she has kept it for the day of My burial.

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

Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You see? You’ve accomplished nothing. Look—the world has gone after Him!”

Jesus replied to 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 purpose I came to this hour.

The crowd standing there heard it and said it was thunder. Others said that an angel had spoken to Him.

Jesus answered and said, "This voice has not happened for my sake, but [for] your sake.

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?

But this was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet, who said:

Lord, who has believed our message?
And who has the arm of the Lord
been revealed to?

So they could not believe, for Isaiah again has said:

He has blinded their eyes
and hardened their hearts,
so that they would not see with their eyes
or understand with their hearts,
and be converted,
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 accept My sayings has this as his judge: The word I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

For I have not spoken on My own, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a command as to what I should say and what I should speak.

I know that His command is eternal life. So the things that I speak, I speak just as the Father has told Me.”

Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, having seen that his hour has come that he would depart out of this world to his Father, having loved his own in the world, he loved them to the end.

Jesus, having seen that the Father has given all the things to him, into his hands, and that he came from God, and goes 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 unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

Jesus said to him, he that comes out from bathing has occasion only to wash his feet, the rest of his body being clean: so you are clean, but not every one 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 speaking about all of you; I know those I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: The one who eats My bread has raised his heel against Me.
