In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was face to face with God, and the Word was God.

And the Word became flesh and tented with us. And we gazed on his glory??lory as of the Father's only Son??ull of grace and truth.

In the morning he found his brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (a word which means Christ, the Anointed One).

after he had been raised from the dead, they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

Many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him because of the word of the woman when she declared, "He told me everything that I ever did."

Jesus answered. "Go your way. Your son lives." And the man believed the word which Jesus spoke to him, and started to go home.

nor had his word dwelling within you, because you do not believe him whom he sent.

But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

"If any one wills to do God's will he shall know concerning my teaching, whether it is from God, or I speak my own authority. Dedicate them in thy truth; thy word is truth."

Then he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (a word which means "sent"). So the man went and washed his eyes, and came back seeing.

"If those to whom the word of God came are called gods (and the Scripture cannot be annulled),

"Father, I thank thee that thou hast listened to me. And I knew that thou art ever listening to me, but for the sake of the crowd who are standing about, I said it, in order that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

Jesus replied. "If any loves me he will obey my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

"Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.

"Remember what I told you, 'A slave is not better than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they have obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

"And so is fulfilled the word written in their Law, 'They hate me without cause.'

"I have made known thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them to me, and they have kept thy word.

I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Dedicate them in thy truth; thy word is truth.

"Nor do I pray for them alone, but for those also who believe in me through their word,

that they may all be one, even as thou, Father, art in me and I in thee; that they also may be in us; in order that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

(In order that the word which he had spoken might be fulfilled, "Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.")

The Jews answered him, "We are not allowed to put anyone to death" (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled in which he predicted the kind of death he was to die).
