who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

His disciples recalled that it is written, The zeal of thine house will devour me.

"Destroy this temple," answered Jesus, "and in three days I will raise it up."

The Jews retorted, "This Temple took forty-six years to build, and will you 'raise it in three days'?"

If I have told you earthly things and yet none of you believe me, how will you believe if I tell you concerning heavenly things?

"All who drink of this water," Jesus answered, "will thirst again;

but whoever once drinks of the water that I will give him, shall never thirst any more, but the water that I will give him shall become a living spring of water within him, welling up into eternal life."

"Woman, believe me," said Jesus, "that the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. For the Father is seeking such as his worshipers.

"I know," said the woman, "that Messiah is coming, who is called the Christ; when he has come he will tell us everything."

Jesus said to them. "My food is to do the will of Him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.

Then Jesus said to him, "Unless you all see signs and wonders, you will not believe."

"For the Father loves the Son, and shows him every thing that he himself is doing. And greater deeds than these will he show him, that you may wonder.

"For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them alive, even so the Son makes whom he will alive.

"I tell you solemnly that he who listens to my messages and believes Him who sent me, has eternal life. He will not come under condemnation, but has passed out of death into life.

"I can of my own self do nothing. As I listen, I judge, and my own judgment is just, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.

"you will not come to me that you may have life.

"I am come in the name of my Father and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

And if you do not believe his writings, how will you ever believe my words?"

"Make the men sit down," said Jesus. The ground was covered with thick grass; so the men sat down, in numbers about five thousand. "of righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you will no longer see me;

"Labor not for food which perishes, but for the food that endures eternal life??hat which the Son of man will give you; for on the Father??od??as set his seal."

"Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will never reject.

"For I am come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

"And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the last day.

"For this is my Fathers will, that every one who beholds the Son and believes on him, shall have eternal life. and I will raise him up at the last day."

answered Jesus; "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him; then I will raise him up on the last day.

"I myself am the living bread that has come down from heaven. Any one who eats this bread will live forever; and moreover, the bread which I will give is my flesh, given for the life of the world."

"He who feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

The Jews were amazed. They said, "How does this fellow know the sacred writings when he has never learned them?" "I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

"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."

"But we know this man and where he is from; but when the Christ comes no one will know where he comes from."

But many of the crowd believed on him and began to say, "The Christ, when he comes, will he do more signs than this man has done?"

"You will search for me and will not find me, and where I am you cannot come."

"If any man thirst let him come to me and drink. From the heart of him who believes in me will flow, as the Scripture said, rivers of living water."

Then again he said them. "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I am going, you cannot come."

Then the Jews said: "He will not kill himself, will he? Is that why he says, 'Where I am going you cannot come'?"

"That is why I said that you would die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

so Jesus added. "When you lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He; and that I do nothing on my own authority, but that I speak just as the Father has taught me,

"and you shall know the truth, and the truth will make you free."

"So then, if the Son shall set you free, you will be free indeed.

"but how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who has opened his eyes. Ask him, himself. He is of age. He will speak for himself."

"We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any one is God-fearing and does his will, to such he listens.

"But a stranger they will not follow, but flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."

"I have other sheep also, which do not belong to this fold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.

"Master, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well," replied the disciples.

but even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."

Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

Martha answered, "I know that he will rise in the resurrection, at the Last Day."

"What are we going to do?" they said, "now that this man is performing many signs?" If we leave him alone, this way, every one will believe on him, and the Romans will come and rob us of both our sacred place and of our people."

So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think??hat he will not come to the feast at all?"

If any one is ready to serve me, let him follow me; and where I am there shall my servant be also. If any man is ready to serve me, him will my Father honor.

Father, glorify thy name!" Whereupon there came a voice from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."

Now is a judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be driven out.

"AND I, IF I BE LIFTED UP FROM THE EARTH, WILL DRAW ALL MEN UNTO MYSELF."

Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand it later."

When he had spoken thus, Jesus was deeply moved. He testified and said, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."

If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and straightway will he glorify him.

"My little children, I am only to be with you a little longer. You will seek me; just as I said to the Jews, 'Where I go you cannot come,' so now I say to you.

"Why cannot I follow you now, Master?" said Peter. "I will lay down my life for you." Jesus answered him.

"Your life you will lay down for me? In solemn truth I tell you, the cock shall not crow before you have three times disowned me."

I will return and will take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be also.

"And whatever' you ask in my name I will do; that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

"If you ask anything in my name, I will do it.

"If you love me, you will obey my commandments,

"and I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Comforter to be with you forever, the Spirit of Truth.

"I will not leave you comfortless; I will come to you.

"It is he who has my commands and obeys them that loves me; and he who loves me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will manifest myself to him."

"How is it, Lord," said Judas (not Iscariot) "that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?"

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.

"But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and bring to your remembrance everything that I have told you.

"If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask whatever your will is, and it shall be yours.

"If you obey my commands you will abide in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and abide in his love.

"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.

"But they will do all these things to you for my name's sake, because they know not Him who sent me.

"When the Comforter is come whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes forth from the Father, he will bear witness of me;

"They will excommunicate you from their synagogues; indeed the time is coming when any one who kills you will suppose that he is doing God's service.

"And they will do these things because they have not known my Father, nor me.

"Yet?? am telling you the truth??y going is for your good. For unless I go away the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart I will send him unto you.

And he, when he comes, will convict the world of sins and of righteousness and of judgment;

of righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you will no longer see me; and of judgement,

But when he is come, that Spirit of Truth, he will guide you into the whole truth. For he will not speak on his own authority, but all that he hears he will speak, and will make known to you that which is to come.

He will glorify me; for he will take of what is mine and will make known to you.

Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that he will take of what is mine and make it known to you.

I tell you solemnly that you will be weeping and wailing while the world is rejoicing; you will be grief-stricken, but your grief shall be turned into gladness.

So you also have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy shall no man snatch away from you.

And in that day you will ask me no questions. "Most solemnly I tell you that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

"I have told you these things in figures; but the time is coming when I shall no longer speak in figures, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.

In that day you shall pray in my name; and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father on your behalf;

"behold the hour approaches and is already come when you will be scattered, each man to his home, and will leave me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

I have said all this to you that in me you might have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, but be courageous; I have overcome the world."

I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

"Father, it is my will that wherever I am these also, thy gift to me, may be with me, that they may see the glory, my glory which thou hast given me, because thou didst love me before the foundations of the world.

And I have declared??nd will declare??hy name unto them, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."

Jesus said to her. "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away, myself."

Accordingly the other disciples kept telling him, "We have seen the Lord." But he told them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and thrust my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

And he said to them, "Cast your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find." So they cast it, and now they could not haul it in for the multitude of fishes.

"Feed my sheep," said Jesus. "In solemn truth I tell you that when you were young, you used to put on your own girdle, and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old you will stretch out your hands for some one to gird you, and carry you where you do not wish to go."
