That was the True Light which enlightens every man coming into the world.

When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said: "Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!"

"How do you know me?" asked Nathanael. "Even before Philip called you," replied Jesus, "when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

"Do you believe in me," asked Jesus, "because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You shall see greater things than those!

They who did accept his statement attested the fact that God is true.

A woman of Samaria came to draw water; and Jesus said to her- - "Give me some to drink,"

"Give me this water, Sir," said the woman, "so that I may not be thirsty, nor have to come all the way here to draw water."

But a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father spiritually and truly; for such are the worshipers that the Father desires.

"In truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "Moses did not give you the Bread from Heaven, but my Father does give you the true Bread from Heaven;

For my flesh is true food, and my blood true drink.

After this many of his disciples drew back, and did not go about with him any longer.

In truth I tell you, whoever does not go into the sheepfold through the door, but climbs up at some other place, that man is a thief and a robber;

But the man who goes in through the door is shepherd to the sheep.

For him the watchman opens the door; and the sheep listen to his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.

So he continued: "In truth I tell you, I am the Door for the sheep.

I am the Door; he who goes in through me will be safe, and he will go in and out and find pasture.

"John gave no sign of his mission," they said; "but everything that he said about this man was true."

And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, shall draw all men to myself."

I am the True Vine, and my Father is the Vine-grower.

And the Immortal Life is this--to know thee the one true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou has sent as thy Messenger.

When Jesus said 'I am he,' they drew back and fell to the ground.

At this, Simon Peter, who had a sword with him, drew it, and struck the High Priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

While Peter stood outside by the door. Presently the other disciple--the one well-known to the High Priest--went out and spoke to the portress, and brought Peter in.

"So you are a King after all!" exclaimed Pilate. "Yes, it is true I am a King," answered Jesus. "I was born for this, I have come into the world for this--to bear testimony to the Truth. Every one who is on the side of Truth listens to my voice."

So they said to one another: "Do not let us tear it, but let us cast lots for it, to see who shall have it." This was in fulfillment of the words of Scripture--'They shared my clothes among them, And over my clothing they cast lots.' That was what the soldiers did.

It is this disciple who states these things, and who recorded them; and we know that his statement is true.
