He came for the purpose of testifying, to testify to the light, so that everyone through him might come to believe.

For while the law was given through Moses, spiritual blessing and truth have come through Jesus Christ.

He said to them, "Come and you will see." So they went and saw where He was staying, and they spent the rest of the day with Him; it was about four in the afternoon.

Then Nathaniel said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

Jesus said to her, "Woman, what have you to do with me? My time to act has not yet come."

He came to Jesus one night and said to Him, "Teacher, we know that you have come from God, for no one can perform the wonder-works that you are doing, unless God is with him."

Whoever trusts in Him is never to come up for judgment, but whoever does not trust in Him has already received his sentence, because he has not trusted in the name of God's only Son.

And the ground for the sentence is this, that the light has come into the world, and yet, because their actions were evil, men have loved darkness more than the light.

For anyone who is in the habit of doing wrong hates the light, and to keep his actions from being reproved, he does not come out into the daylight.

But whoever is in the habit of living the truth will come out in the daylight, that his actions may be shown to be performed with God's help."

The woman said to Him, "Give me this water at once, sir, so I may never get thirsty again, nor have to come so far to draw water."

He said to her, "Go and call your husband and come back here."

"Come, see a man who has told me everything I ever did. He is not the Christ, is He?"

When he heard that Jesus had come back from Judea to Galilee, he went to Him and began to beg Him to come down and cure his son, for he was at the point of death.

The king's officer pleaded with Him, "Sir, come down at once before my child is dead!"

This is the second wonder-work that Jesus performed after He had come back from Judea to Galilee.

"I most solemnly say to you, whoever listens to me and believes Him who has sent me possesses eternal life, and will never come under condemnation, but has already passed out of death into life.

and those who have done good will come out for a resurrection to life, but those who have done evil for a resurrection to condemnation.

but you refuse to come to me to get possession of life.

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.

When the people, therefore, saw the wonder-works that He performed, they began to say, "This is surely the prophet who was to come into the world."

So when Jesus learned that they were going to come and carry Him off by force to crown Him king, He again retired to the hill by Himself.

and got into a boat and started across the sea to Capernaum. Now it was already dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

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

because I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of Him who sent me.

And they said, "Is He not Jesus, Joseph's son, whose father and mother we know? So how can He say, 'I have come down out of heaven'?"

No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him to me; then I myself will raise him to life on the last day.

In the prophets it is written, 'And all men will be taught by God.' Everyone who ever listens to the Father and learns from Him will come to me.

I am this living bread that has come down out of heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he will live forever, and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my own flesh."

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."

and we have come to believe, yes more, we know by experience, that you are the Holy One of God."

So Jesus, as He was teaching in the temple, cried out, "Yes, you do know me and you do know where I come from, and I have not come on my own authority, but the One who has sent me exists as the Real One, whom you do not know.

I know Him myself, because I have come from Him, and He has sent me."

Then they kept on trying to arrest Him, and yet no one laid a hand on Him, for the time had not yet come.

You will then look for me, but you will not find me, and you cannot come where I am going."

What does He mean by saying, 'You will look for me and will not find me, and you cannot come where I am going'?"

On the last day, the great day, of the feast, Jesus stood and cried aloud, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

By this He referred to the Spirit that those believing in Him were going to receive -- for the Spirit had not yet come, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Others said, "This is the Christ." But still others said, "The Christ does not come from Galilee, does He?

Do not the Scriptures say that the Christ is to spring from David and to come from the village of Bethlehem where David lived?"

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."

Early the next morning, He had come into the temple again, and all the people were gathering around Him. Having sat down, He began to teach them.

Jesus answered them, "Even if I do testify to myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

He said these things in the treasury as He was teaching in the temple, and yet no one ventured to arrest Him, because the time had not yet come for Him.

Then Jesus again said to them, "I am going away, and you will look for me, but you will die under the curse of your sins; for where I am going you can never come."

Then the Jews began to say, "He is not going to kill Himself, is He? Is that why He said, 'Where I am going you can never come'?"

Then Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. No, indeed, I have not come on my own authority, but He has sent me.

So they kept on asking him, "How in the world did you come to see?"

So the Pharisees again asked him how he had come to see. He answered them: "He put some clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and so now I can see."

Then some of the Pharisees said, "This man does not come from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a sinful man perform such wonder- works?" So there was a difference of opinion among them.

But the Jews did not believe that he had really been blind and that he had come to see again, until they called the parents of the man who saw again,

If this man had not come from God, He could not have done anything like this."

Then Jesus said, "I have come into this world to judge people, so that those who do not see may see, and those who do see may become blind."

So when he gets his sheep all out, he goes on before them, and the sheep come on behind him, because they know his voice.

But they will never come on behind a stranger, but will run away from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."

A thief does not come for any purpose but to steal and kill and destroy; I have come for people to have life and have it till it overflows.

But if I am doing so, even if you will not believe me, believe the deeds, that you may come to know and continue to know that the Father is in union with me and I am in union with the Father."

and I am glad for your sake that I was not there so that you may come to have real faith in me. But let us go to him."

and a goodly number of Jews had come out to see Martha and Mary, to sympathize with them over their brother.

She said to Him, "Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

for He had not yet come into the village, but He was still at the place where Martha had met Him.

So when Jesus saw her weeping and the Jews who had come with her weeping too, He sighed in sympathy and shook with emotion,

and asked, "Where have you laid him?" They answered, "Lord, come and see."

yes, I knew that you always listen to me. But I have said this for the sake of the crowd that is standing by, that they may come to believe that you have sent me."

On saying this, He shouted aloud, "Lazarus, come out!"

If we let Him go on this way, everybody will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city and nation."

So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think? Do you think He will not come to the feast at all?"

The next day the vast crowd that had come to the feast, on hearing that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem,

Jesus answered them, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified,

Jesus answered, "This voice did not come for my sake, but for yours.

I have come as light into the world, so that no one who continues to believe in me can remain in darkness.

If anyone hears my words and fails to keep them, it is not I that judge him, for I have not come to judge but to save the world.

Before the Passover feast started, Jesus knew that His time had come for Him to leave the world and go to the Father, and as He had loved His own in the world He loved them to the last.

because He was sure that the Father had put everything into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going back to God,

And if I go and make it ready for you, I will come back and take you to be face to face with me, so that you may always be right where I am.

Jesus answered him, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

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.

"If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. But now the fact is, they have no excuse for their sin.

They will do this, because they have never come to know God nor me.

But I have told you these things that when the time does come, you may remember that I told you. I did not tell you these things at the start, because I was with you.

Yet it is nothing but the truth I now tell you, that it is better for you that I should go away. For if I do not go away, the Helper will not come into close fellowship with you, but if I do go away, I will send Him to be in close fellowship with you.

But when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into the whole truth, for He will not speak on His own authority but will tell what is told Him, and will announce to you the things that are to come.

When a woman is in labor, she is in pain, for her time has come, but when the baby is born, she forgets her pain because of her joy that a human being has been born into the world.

for the Father tenderly loves you Himself, because you now tenderly love me and now believe that I have come from the Father.

I did come from the Father and I have come into the world. Now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father."

Now we know that you know everything and do not need that anyone should ask you questions. For this reason we believe that you have come from God."

When Jesus had said all these things, He lifted His eyes to heaven and said: "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that He may glorify you,

Now they have come to know that everything you have given me really comes from you;

for I have given them the teachings that you gave me, and they have accepted them, and they have come to know in reality that I did come from you, and so they are convinced that you did send me.

"I make this petition, not for them only, but for all who ever come to believe in me through their message,

Righteous Father, although the world did not know you, I did know you, and these men have come to know that you sent me,

Jesus answered, "My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants would have been fighting to keep me from being turned over to the Jews. But as a matter of fact, my kingdom does not come from such a source."

Then Pilate said to Him, "So you are a king then?" Jesus answered, "Certainly I am a king. For this very purpose I was born, for this very purpose I have come into the world, to testify for truth. Everybody who is a friend of truth listens to my voice."

and went back into the governor's palace and asked Jesus, "Where do you come from?" But Jesus made no answer.

The man who saw it has testified to it -- and his testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth -- in order that you too may come to believe it.

Now Nicodemus also, who had formerly come to Jesus at night, went and took a mixture of myrrh and aloes that weighed about one hundred pounds.

Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples dared to ask Him, "Who are you?" because they knew it was the Lord.

Jesus answered him, "If I wish him to wait until I come, what is that to you? You must keep on following me."

So the report got out among the brothers that this disciple was not going to die. But Jesus did not tell him that he was not going to die; He said only, "If I wish him to wait until I come, what is that to you?"
