That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.

For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ.

He spoke openly and, remaining true to himself, admitted, "I am not the Messiah."

Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Here is an Israelite indeed [a true descendant of Jacob], in whom there is no guile nor deceit nor duplicity!”

Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

Nathaniel said to him: How knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him: Before Philip called you, while you were under the fig-tree, I saw you.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

Jesus answered and said to him: Do you believe, be cause I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree? You shall see greater things than these. And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Jesus said to her, “[Dear] woman, what is that to you and to Me? My time [to act and to be revealed] has not yet come.”

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

Truly, I say to you, We say that of which we have knowledge; we give witness of what we have seen; and you do not take our witness to be true.

But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.

What He has [actually] seen and heard, of that He testifies; and yet no one accepts His testimony [as true].

He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.

There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

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

Jesus told her, "Believe me, dear lady, the hour is coming when you Samaritans will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him true spiritual worship."

And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.

If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

You sent to John and he gave true witness.

And when they had rowed about a twenty five or a thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walk on the sea, and to draw nigh unto the ship, and they were afraid.

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

For My flesh is true [spiritual] food, and My blood is true [spiritual] drink.

As a result of this many of His disciples abandoned Him, and no longer walked with Him.

When the time of the Jewish feast of Tabernacles drew near,

He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is 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?

Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

Is it not true that not any of the rulers or of the Pharisees have believed into him?

[An early interpolation, but probably true]. And every man went to his own house;

Then Jesus stood up and asked her, "Dear lady, where are your accusers? Hasn't anyone condemned you?"

The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.

Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.

So Jesus spoke to the Jews that believed him, saying. "If you abide in my teaching, you are my true disciples;

And you will have knowledge of what is true, and that will make you free.

But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.

You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, We are true sons of Abraham; we have one Father, who is God.

You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.

But because I say what is true, you have no belief in me.

Which of you is able truly to say that I am a sinner? If I say what is true, why have you no belief in me?

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

The doorkeeper opens [the gate] for this man, and the sheep hear his voice and pay attention to it. And [knowing that they listen] he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out [to pasture].

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

All who came before Me [as false messiahs and self-appointed leaders] are thieves and robbers, but the [true] sheep did not hear them.

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

I am the true pastor: the true pastor exposes his life for the sheep.

The hired man, who is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep, deserts them when he sees the wolf coming; he runs away, leaving the wolf to tear and scatter them,

I am the true pastor, I know my sheep, and my sheep know me,

and I give them everlasting life; and they shall never perish, nor shall any one tear them out of my hand.

That which my Father hath given me is greater than all; and no one is able to tear [them] out of the Fathers hand.

[if that is true] then do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and set apart for Himself and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?

And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.

So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold dear is ill."

Now Jesus loved and was concerned about Martha and her sister and Lazarus [and considered them dear friends].

These things, he said, and, after this, he saith unto them - Lazarus, our dear friend, hath fallen asleep; but I am going, that I may awake him.

"See how dear he held him," said the Jews.

He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life of the Ages.

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.

So that the words of the prophet Isaiah might come true, when he said, Lord, who has any belief in our preaching? and the arm of the Lord, to whom has it been unveiled?

"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."

I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.

There was at table one of his disciples, the one dear to Jesus, resting his head on Jesus' breast.

Little children, I am with you [only] a little longer. You will look for Me and, as I told the Jews, so I tell you now, ‘Where I am going, you are not able to come.’

Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

Even the Spirit of true knowledge. That Spirit the world is not able to take to its heart because it sees him not and has no knowledge of him: but you have knowledge of him, because he is ever with you and will be in you.

Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

My Father is glorified and honored by this, when you bear much fruit, and prove yourselves to be My [true] disciples.

This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;

They shall excommunicate you: yea the time shall come, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he doth God true service.

But what I am saying is true: my going is for your good: for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.

He will glorify and honor Me, because He (the Holy Spirit) will take from what is Mine and will disclose it to you.

All that the Father has is mine; that is why I say, 'he will draw upon what is mine and disclose it to you.'

for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even as we are.

While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

Make them holy by the true word: your word is the true word.

When Jesus said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

(He said this so that his words might come true, I have kept safe all those whom you gave to me.)

Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

Jesus said in answer, If I have said anything evil, give witness to the evil: but if I said what is true, why do you give me blows?

they answered and said to him, 'If he were not an evil doer, we had not delivered him to thee.'

(That the word of Jesus might come true, pointing to the sort of death he would have.)
