Indeed, we have all received grace after grace
from His fullness,

I have seen and testified that He is the Son of God!”

He first found his own brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which means “Anointed One”),

Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law (and so did the prophets): Jesus the son of Joseph, from Nazareth!”

When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother told Him, “They don’t have any wine.”

and told him, “Everyone sets out the fine wine first, then, after people have drunk freely, the inferior. But you have kept the fine wine until now.”

This man came to Him at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher, for no one could perform these signs You do unless God were with him.”

“I assure you: We speak what We know and We testify to what We have seen, but you do not accept Our testimony.

If I have told you about things that happen on earth and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you about things of heaven?

so that everyone who believes in Him will have eternal life.

“For God loved the world in this way: He gave His One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.

“Sir,” said the woman, “You don’t even have a bucket, and the well is deep. So where do You get this ‘living water’?

“I don’t have a husband,” she answered.

“You have correctly said, ‘I don’t have a husband,’” Jesus said.

“For you’ve had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.”

But He said, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

The disciples said to one another, “Could someone have brought Him something to eat?”

I sent you to reap what you didn’t labor for; others have labored, and you have benefited from their labor.”

And they told the woman, “We no longer believe because of what you said, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this really is the Savior of the world.”

“Sir,” the sick man answered, “I don’t have a man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, someone goes down ahead of me.”

For just as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted to the Son to have life in Himself.

and come out—those who have done good things, to the resurrection of life, but those who have done wicked things, to the resurrection of judgment.

You have sent messengers to John, and he has testified to the truth.

“But I have a greater testimony than John’s because of the works that the Father has given Me to accomplish. These very works I am doing testify about Me that the Father has sent Me.

The Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have not heard His voice at any time, and you haven’t seen His form.

You don’t have His word living in you, because you don’t believe the One He sent.

You pore over the Scriptures because you think you have eternal life in them, yet they testify about Me.

And you are not willing to come to Me so that you may have life.

but I know you—that you have no love for God within you.

I have come in My Father’s name, yet you don’t accept Me. If someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.

Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread wouldn’t be enough for each of them to have a little.”

Then Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.”

There was plenty of grass in that place, so they sat down. The men numbered about 5,000.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

For this is the will of My Father: that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”

They were saying, “Isn’t this Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can He now say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

So Jesus said to them, “I assure you: Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves.

The Spirit is the One who gives life. The flesh doesn’t help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

Simon Peter answered, “Lord, who will we go to? You have the words of eternal life.

We have come to believe and know that You are the Holy One of God!”

“You have a demon!” the crowd responded. “Who wants to kill You?”

As He was teaching in the temple complex, Jesus cried out, “You know Me and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on My own, but the One who sent Me is true. You don’t know Him;

The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, will have streams of living water flow from deep within him.”

Then the temple police came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why haven’t you brought Him?”

Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in Him?

They asked this to trap Him, in order that they might have evidence to accuse Him.

Jesus stooped down and started writing on the ground with His finger.

Then Jesus spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows Me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.”

“I have many things to say and to judge about you, but the One who sent Me is true, and what I have heard from Him—these things I tell the world.”

“We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered Him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will become free’?”

I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; therefore, you do what you have heard from your father.”

You’re doing what your father does.”

“We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said. “We have one Father—God.”

The Jews responded to Him, “Aren’t we right in saying that You’re a Samaritan and have a demon?”

“I do not have a demon,” Jesus answered. “On the contrary, I honor My Father and you dishonor Me.

Then the Jews said, “Now we know You have a demon. Abraham died and so did the prophets. You say, ‘If anyone keeps My word, he will never taste death—ever!’

Jesus answered, “You have seen Him; in fact, He is the One speaking with you.”

“If you were blind,” Jesus told them, “you wouldn’t have sin. But now that you say, ‘We see’—your sin remains.

A thief comes only to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come so that they may have life and have it in abundance.

But I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock, one shepherd.

No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down on My own. I have the right to lay it down, and I have the right to take it up again. I have received this command from My Father.”

Jesus replied, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. Which of these works are you stoning Me for?”

Then Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw Him, she fell at His feet and told Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died!”

“Where have you put him?” He asked.

“Lord,” they told Him, “come and see.”

But some of them said, “Couldn’t He who opened the blind man’s eyes also have kept this man from dying?”

For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have Me.”

Father, glorify Your name!”

Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again!”

Then the crowd replied to Him, “We have heard from the scripture that the Messiah will remain forever. So how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

Jesus answered, “The light will be with you only a little longer. Walk while you have the light so that darkness doesn’t overtake you. The one who walks in darkness doesn’t know where he’s going.

While you have the light, believe in the light so that you may become sons of light.” Jesus said this, then went away and hid from them.

I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me would not remain in darkness.

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.

“You will never wash my feet—ever!” Peter said.

Jesus replied, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with Me.”

When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His robe, He reclined again and said to them, “Do you know what I have done for you?

So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

For I have given you an example that you also should do just as I have done for you.

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.

Jesus replied, “He’s the one I give the piece of bread to after I have dipped it.” When He had dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son.

“I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you must also love one another.

By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Jesus replied, “Will you lay down your life for Me? I assure you: A rooster will not crow until you have denied Me three times.

In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if not, I would have told you. I am going away to prepare a place for you.

“If you know Me, you will also know My Father. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”

Jesus said to him, “Have I been among you all this time without your knowing Me, Philip? The one who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

“I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit—the Father will send Him in My name—will teach you all things and remind you of everything I have told you.

You have heard Me tell you, ‘I am going away and I am coming to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I.

I have told you now before it happens so that when it does happen you may believe.

You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.

“As the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you. Remain in My love.

If you keep My commands you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commands and remain in His love.

“I have spoken these things to you so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.

This is My command: Love one another as I have loved you.

I do not call you slaves anymore, because a slave doesn’t know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have heard from My Father.

If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin.

If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not have sin. Now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father.

You also will testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

“I have told you these things to keep you from stumbling.

They will do these things because they haven’t known the Father or Me.

But I have told you these things so that when their time comes you may remember I told them to you. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
