Jesus answered, "Come and you will see." So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. Now it was about four o'clock in the afternoon.

Andrew brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon, the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is translated Peter).

Jesus said to him, "Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these."

He continued, "I tell all of you the solemn truth -- you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."

His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will devour me."

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

The wind blows wherever it will, and you hear the sound it makes, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit."

If I have told you people about earthly things and you don't believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?

For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

For everyone who does evil deeds hates the light and does not come to the light, so that their deeds will not be exposed.

The one who believes in the Son has eternal life. The one who rejects the Son will not see life, but God's wrath remains on him.

Jesus replied, "Everyone who drinks some of this water will be thirsty again.

But whoever drinks some of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again, but the water that I will give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up to eternal life."

The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water."

Jesus said to her, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

But a time is coming -- and now is here -- when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such people to be his worshipers.

The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming" (the one called Christ); "whenever he comes, he will tell us everything."

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

So Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders you will never believe!"

Jesus told him, "Go home; your son will live." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and set off for home.

Then the father realized that it was the very time Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live," and he himself believed along with his entire household.

For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything he does, and will show him greater deeds than these, so that you will be amazed.

so that all people will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

"I tell you the solemn truth, the one who hears my message and believes the one who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned, but has crossed over from death to life.

I tell you the solemn truth, a time is coming -- and is now here -- when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

"Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice

and will come out -- the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life, and the ones who have done what is evil to the resurrection resulting in condemnation.

I can do nothing on my own initiative. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the one who sent me.

I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me. If someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.

"Do not suppose that I will accuse you before the Father. The one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have placed your hope.

But if you do not believe what Moses wrote, how will you believe my words?"

Do not work for the food that disappears, but for the food that remains to eternal life -- the food which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has put his seal of approval on him."

So they said to him, "Then what miraculous sign will you perform, so that we may see it and believe you? What will you do?

Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. The one who comes to me will never go hungry, and the one who believes in me will never be thirsty.

Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me, and the one who comes to me I will never send away.

For I have come down from heaven not to do my own will but the will of the one who sent me.

Now this is the will of the one who sent me -- that I should not lose one person of every one he has given me, but raise them all up at the last day.

For this is the will of my Father -- for everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him to have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."

No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.

It is written in the prophets, 'And they will all be taught by God.' Everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to me.

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats from this bread he will live forever. The bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."

The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so the one who consumes me will live because of me.

This is the bread that came down from heaven; it is not like the bread your ancestors ate, but then later died. The one who eats this bread will live forever."

If anyone wants to do God's will, he will know about my teaching, whether it is from God or whether I speak from my own authority.

But we know where this man comes from. Whenever the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from."

Yet many of the crowd believed in him and said, "Whenever the Christ comes, he won't perform more miraculous signs than this man did, will he?"

Then Jesus said, "I will be with you for only a little while longer, and then I am going to the one who sent me.

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

What did he mean by saying, 'You will look for me but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?"

let the one who believes in me drink. Just as the scripture says, 'From within him will flow rivers of living water.'"

They replied, "You aren't from Galilee too, are you? Investigate carefully and you will see that no prophet comes from Galilee!"

Then Jesus spoke out again, "I am the light of the world. The one who follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

Then Jesus said to them again, "I am going away, and you will look for me but will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come."

Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."

Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own initiative, but I speak just what the Father taught me.

and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

"We are descendants of Abraham," they replied, "and have never been anyone's slaves! How can you say, 'You will become free'?"

So if the son sets you free, you will be really free.

I tell you the solemn truth, if anyone obeys my teaching, he will never see death."

Then the Judeans responded, "Now we know you're possessed by a demon! Both Abraham and the prophets died, and yet you say, 'If anyone obeys my teaching, he will never experience death.'

But we do not know how he is now able to see, nor do we know who caused him to see. Ask him, he is a mature adult. He will speak for himself."

We know that God doesn't listen to sinners, but if anyone is devout and does his will, God listens to him.

They will never follow a stranger, but will run away from him, because they do not recognize the stranger's voice."

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

I have other sheep that do not come from this sheepfold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, so that there will be one flock and one shepherd.

No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down of my own free will. I have the authority to lay it down, and I have the authority to take it back again. This commandment I received from my Father."

The Jewish leaders surrounded him and asked, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; no one will snatch them from my hand.

When Jesus heard this, he said, "This sickness will not lead to death, but to God's glory, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it."

Then the disciples replied, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover."

But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will grant you."

Jesus replied, "Your brother will come back to life again."

Martha said, "I know that he will come back to life again in the resurrection at the last day."

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live even if he dies,

and the one who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the deceased, replied, "Lord, by this time the body will have a bad smell, because he has been buried four days."

If we allow him to go on in this way, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away our sanctuary and our nation."

For you will always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me!"

If anyone wants to serve me, he must follow me, and where I am, my servant will be too. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

Father, glorify your name." Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

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

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

Then the crowd responded, "We have heard from the law that the Christ will remain forever. How can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of Man?"

The one who rejects me and does not accept my words has a judge; the word I have spoken will judge him at the last day.

Jesus replied, "You do not understand what I am doing now, but you will understand after these things."

Peter said to him, "You will never wash my feet!" Jesus replied, "If I do not wash you, you have no share with me."

If you understand these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

When he had said these things, Jesus was greatly distressed in spirit, and testified, "I tell you the solemn truth, one of you will betray me."

Jesus replied, "It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I have dipped it in the dish." Then he dipped the piece of bread in the dish and gave it to Judas Iscariot, Simon's son.

If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him right away.

Children, I am still with you for a little while. You will look for me, and just as I said to the Jewish religious leaders, 'Where I am going you cannot come,' now I tell you the same.

Everyone will know by this that you are my disciples -- if you have love for one another."

Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus replied, "Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later."

Peter said to him, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!"

Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for me? I tell you the solemn truth, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too.

If you have known me, you will know my Father too. And from now on you do know him and have seen him."

Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father, and we will be content."

I tell you the solemn truth, the person who believes in me will perform the miraculous deeds that I am doing, and will perform greater deeds than these, because I am going to the Father.
