because while the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus the Messiah.

"Who are you?" they asked him. "We must give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

John replied, "No one can receive anything unless it has been given to them from heaven.

The one whom God sent speaks the words of God, because God does not give the Spirit in limited measure to him.

So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus told her, "Please give me a drink,"

Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who is saying to you, "Please give me a drink,' you would have been the one to ask him, and he would have given you living water."

But whoever drinks the water that I will give him will never become thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become a well of water for him, springing up to eternal life."

The woman told him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I won't get thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water."

Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to those he chooses.

The Father judges no one, but has given all authority to judge to the Son,

and he has given him authority to judge, because he is the Son of Man.

There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony he gives about me is true.

"But I have a greater testimony than John's, because the actions that the Father has given me to complete the very actions that I am doing testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.

Other small boats from Tiberias arrived near the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

Do not work for food that perishes but for food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set his seal on him."

Jesus told them, "Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

The bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world."

Then they told him, "Sir, give us this bread all the time."

Everything the Father gives me will come to me, and I'll never turn away the one who comes to me.

And this is the will of the one who sent me, that I should not lose anything that he has given me, but should raise it to life on the last day.

I'm the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he'll live forever. And the bread I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."

Then the Jewish leaders debated angrily with each other, asking, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

It's the Spirit who gives life; the flesh accomplishes nothing. The words that I've spoken to you are spirit and life.

The Jewish leaders summoned the man who had been blind a second time and told him, "Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner."

I give them eternal life, they'll never be lost, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.

What my Father has given me is more important than anything, and no one can snatch it from the Father's hand.

But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, he will give it to you."

Now the high priests and the Pharisees had given orders that whoever knew where he was should tell them so that they could arrest him.

"Why wasn't this perfume sold for 300 denarii and the money given to the destitute?"

Because Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into his control, that he had come from God, and that he was returning to God,

Jesus answered, "He is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I have dipped it in the dish."

Some thought that, since Judas had the moneybag, Jesus was telling him to buy what they needed for the festival or to give something to the destitute.

I will ask the Father to give you another Helper, to be with you always.

I'm leaving you at peace. I'm giving you my own peace. I'm not giving it to you as the world gives. So don't let your hearts be troubled, and don't be afraid.

"You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you. I have appointed you to go and produce fruit that will last, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

When a woman is in labor she has pain, because her time has come. Yet when she has given birth to her child, she doesn't remember the agony anymore because of the joy of having brought a human being into the world.

On that day, you won't ask me for anything. Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, whatever you ask the Father for in my name, he will give it to you.

For you have given him authority over all humanity so that he might give eternal life to all those you gave him.

I have given them your word, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I don't belong to the world.

"I have given them the glory that you gave me, so that they may be one, just as we are one.

Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am and to see my glory, which you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

Jesus told Peter, "Put your sword back into its sheath. Shouldn't I drink the cup that the Father has given me?"

Jesus answered him, "You have no authority over me at all, except what was given to you from above. That's why the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin."
