“I baptize you with water for repentance, but the One who is coming after me is more powerful than I. I am not worthy to remove His sandals. He Himself will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

“Lord,” the centurion replied, “I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But only say the word, and my servant will be cured.

He was preaching: “Someone more powerful than I will come after me. I am not worthy to stoop down and untie the strap of His sandals.

John answered them all, “I baptize you with water, but One is coming who is more powerful than I. I am not worthy to untie the strap of His sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Jesus went with them, and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to tell Him, “Lord, don’t trouble Yourself, since I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.

After a little while, someone else saw him and said, “You’re one of them too!”

“Man, I am not!” Peter said.

He did not refuse to answer, but he declared: “I am not the Messiah.”

“What then?” they asked him. “Are you Elijah?”

“I am not,” he said.

“Are you the Prophet?”

“No,” he answered.

You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Messiah, but I’ve been sent ahead of 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.

“You are from below,” He told them, “I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

If I am not doing My Father’s works, don’t believe Me.

In that day you will ask in My name. I am not telling you that I will make requests to the Father on your behalf.

Look: An hour is coming, and has come, when each of you will be scattered to his own home, and you will leave Me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

I pray for them.
I am not praying for the world
but for those You have given Me,
because they are Yours.

I have given them Your word.
The world hated them
because they are not of the world,
as I am not of the world.

I am not praying
that You take them out of the world
but that You protect them from the evil one.

They are not of the world,
as I am not of the world.

Then the slave girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?”

“I am not!” he said.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, “You aren’t one of His disciples too, are you?”

He denied it and said, “I am not!”

Then as John was completing his life’s work, he said, ‘Who do you think I am? I am not the One. But look! Someone is coming after me, and I am not worthy to untie the sandals on His feet.’

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God’s power for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek.

I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying; my conscience is testifying to me with the Holy Spirit—

For I am not conscious of anything against myself, but I am not justified by this. The One who evaluates me is the Lord.

If I am not an apostle to others, at least I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win Jews; to those under the law, like one under the law—though I myself am not under the law—to win those under the law.

I am not saying this as a command. Rather, by means of the diligence of others, I am testing the genuineness of your love.

For if I boast some more about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for tearing you down, I am not ashamed.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?

The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is praised forever, knows I am not lying.

Now I am ready to come to you this third time. I will not burden you, for I am not seeking what is yours, but you. For children are not obligated to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.

For this I was appointed a herald, an apostle (I am telling the truth; I am not lying), and a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

and that is why I suffer these things. But I am not ashamed, because I know the One I have believed in and am persuaded that He is able to guard what has been entrusted to me until that day.

Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old command that you have had from the beginning. The old command is the message you have heard.

If anyone sees his brother committing a sin that does not bring death, he should ask, and God will give life to him—to those who commit sin that doesn’t bring death. There is sin that brings death. I am not saying he should pray about that.

As much as she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
give her that much torment and grief,
for she says in her heart,
“I sit as a queen;
I am not a widow,
and I will never see grief.”
