He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement. He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.

For every wrongdoer hates the light, and does not come to the light, for fear his actions should be exposed and condemned.

But he who does what is honest and right comes to the light, in order that his actions may be plainly shown to have been done in God.

For He whom God has sent speaks God's words; for God does not give the Spirit with limitations."

"In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that the Son can do nothing of Himself--He can only do what He sees the Father doing; for whatever He does, that the Son does in like manner.

The Father indeed does not judge any one, but He has entrusted all judgement to the Son,

"In most solemn truth I tell you that he who listens to my teaching and believes Him who sent me, has the Life of the Ages, and does not come under judgement, but has passed over out of death into Life.

They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, 'I have come down out of Heaven'?"

"Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate, because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.

The Jews were astonished. "How does this man know anything of books," they said, "although he has never been at any of the schools?"

Jesus answered their question by saying, "My teaching does not belong to me, but comes from Him who sent me.

"Does our Law," he asked, "judge a man without first hearing what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?"

Now a slave does not remain permanently in his master's house, but a son does.

The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do what gives him pleasure. *He* was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him. Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." "How is it possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others.

We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.

"In most solemn truth I tell you that the man who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs over some other way, is a thief and a robber.

The hired servant--one who is not a shepherd and does not own the sheep--no sooner sees the wolf coming than he leaves the sheep and runs away; and the wolf worries and scatters them.

"Does it not stand written in your Law," replied Jesus, "'I said, you are gods'?

"Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus. "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--because he sees the light of this world.

But if a man walks by night, he does stumble, because the light is not in him."

"Yet a little while," He replied, "the light is among you. Be faithful to the light that you have, for fear darkness should overtake you; for a man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going.

He who sets me at naught and does not receive my teachings is not left without a judge: the Message which I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

"Any one who has lately bathed," said Jesus, "does not need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over. And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true of all of you."

That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your side and is in you.

He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.

Continue in me, and let me continue in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself--that is, if it does not continue in the vine--so neither can you if you do not continue in me.

If any one does not continue in me, he is like the unfruitful branch which is at once thrown away and then withers up. Such branches they gather up and throw into the fire and they are burned.

No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because all that I have heard from the Father I have made known to you.

Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does this mean which He is telling us, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and 'Because I am going to the Father'?"

"My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."
