The true light, who gives light to everyone,
was coming into the world.

Then Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said about him, “Here is a true Israelite; no deceit is in him.”

“How do you know me?” Nathanael asked.

“Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you,” Jesus answered.

Jesus responded to him, “Do you believe only because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this.”

Then He said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the chief servant.” And they did.

The one who has accepted His testimony has affirmed that God is true.

A woman of Samaria came to draw water.

“Give Me a drink,” Jesus said to her,

“Sir,” the woman said to Him, “give me this water so I won’t get thirsty and come here to draw water.”

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

But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. Yes, the Father wants such people to worship Him.

For in this case the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’

The one who speaks for himself seeks his own glory. But He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

Yet, look! He’s speaking publicly and they’re saying nothing to Him. Can it be true that the authorities know He is the Messiah?

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;

And if I do judge, My judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent Me judge together.

“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.”

“I assure you: Anyone who doesn’t enter the sheep pen by the door but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber.

The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

So Jesus said again, “I assure you: I am the door of the sheep.

I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved and will come in and go out and find pasture.

Many came to Him and said, “John never did a sign, but everything John said about this man was true.”

As for Me, if I am lifted up from the earth I will draw all people to Myself.”

“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vineyard keeper.

This is eternal life:
that they may know You, the only true God,
and the One You have sent—Jesus Christ.

Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, struck the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear. (The slave’s name was Malchus.)

But Peter remained standing outside by the door. So the other disciple, the one known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the girl who was the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.

So they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it, to see who gets it.” They did this to fulfill the Scripture that says: They divided My clothes among themselves, and they cast lots for My clothing. And this is what the soldiers did.

He who saw this has testified so that you also may believe. His testimony is true, and he knows he is telling the truth.

This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who wrote them down. We know that his testimony is true.
