Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

And he said, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it has been granted to him by the Father."

Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come."

And many of the people believed in him, and they said, "When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than this man has done?"

He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water."

Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes from David, and from Bethlehem, the town where David was?"

Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to him."

I know that you are Abraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.

but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.

So they again said to the blind man, "What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind.

When he has brought out all his own, he goes on before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.

Many of them said, "He has a demon, and is mad. Why listen to him?"

Others said, "These are not the sayings of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of my Father's hand.

These things he said, and after that he said to them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to wake him up."

Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been dead four days."

Jesus said, "Let her alone, she has kept this for the day of my burial.

The Pharisees then said to one another, "You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, The world has gone after him!"

Jesus answered them, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

The crowd standing by heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.

that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: "Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts and turn, so that I should heal them."

He who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will condemn him on the last day.

And I know that his command is eternal life. Whatever I say, therefore, I say just as the Father has told me."

Jesus said to him, "He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not every one of you."

I am not speaking of you all. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'he who ate my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'

Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?

He who has my commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him."

I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me.

As the Father has loved me, I also have loved you; abide in my love.

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.

All that the Father has is mine. Therefore I said that he will take of what is mine and declare it to you.

When a woman is in labor she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but as soon as she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child has been born into the world.

Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, when you will be scattered, each to his own, and will leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said: "Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son also may glorify you,

I have given them your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

O righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you; and these know that you sent me.

Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?"

Jesus answered, "You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered me to you has the greater sin."

He who saw it has testified, and his testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth, that you also may believe.

Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I also send you."

He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority.

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth."

They also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched him go into heaven."

Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which you see and hear.

Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified."

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus, the one whom you delivered and disowned in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him.

And his name, by faith in his name, has made this man strong whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Jesus has given him perfect health in the presence of you all.

if we are being examined today for a good deed done to a cripple, as to how this man has been healed,

He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which has become the chief cornerstone.

saying, "What shall we do with these men? For that a noteworthy miracle has been performed through them is apparent to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back some of the price of the land?

We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him."

saying to Aaron, 'Make for us gods who will go before us; as for this Moses who led us out from the land of Egyptwe do not know what has happened to him.'

Has not my hand made all these things?'

and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight."

But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much harm he has done to your saints at Jerusalem;

and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name."

So Ananias departed and entered the house. And after laying his hands on him said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

And the voice came to him again a second time, "What God has cleansed, you must not call common."

And he said to them, "You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with a foreigner or to visit him; but God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

and he said, 'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms have been remembered before God.

You know what has happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

But I said, 'No, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'

But the voice answered a second time from heaven, 'What God has cleansed you must not call common.'

When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying, "So then, God has granted to the Gentiles also the repentance unto life."

When Peter came to himself, he said, "Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."

From this man's descendants God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus, as he promised.

"Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation.

he has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is also written in the second Psalm: 'You are my Son; today I have begotten you.'

For so the Lord has commanded us: 'I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'"

Simeon has related how God first showed his concern by taking from the Gentiles a people for his name.

'After this I will return, and I will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it,

For Moses from ancient generations has in every city those who preach him, since he is read in the synagogues every Sabbath."

it has seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

and Jason has welcomed them, and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus."

because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given proof to all men by raising him from the dead."

And you see and hear that not only in Ephesus, but in almost all of Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away a considerable number of people, saying that gods made with hands are no gods at all.

Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which he purchased with the blood of his Own.

crying out, "Men of Israel, help! This is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against our people and our law and this place; and besides he also brought Greeks into the temple, and he has defiled this holy place."

And I said, 'What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, 'Get up and go on into Damascus, and there you will be told of all that has been appointed for you to do.'

Then he said, 'The God of our fathers has appointed you to know his will and to see the Righteous One and to hear words from his mouth.

There occurred a great uproar; and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and began to argue heatedly, saying, "We find nothing wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?"

Paul called one of the centurions and said, "Take this young man to the commander; for he has something to tell him."

So he took him and brought him to the commander and said, "Paul the prisoner called me and asked me to bring this young man to you, since he has something to tell you."

I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to hand over any man before the accused meets his accusers face to face and has an opportunity to make his defense against the charges.

But I have nothing definite about him to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the investigation has taken place, I may have something to write.

For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak freely; for I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this was not done in a corner.

and he said, 'Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'

When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer. Though he has escaped from the sea, justice has not allowed him to live."

They said to him, "We have not received letters from Judea concerning you, and none of the brethren who have come here has reported or spoken anything bad about you.

For this people's heart has become dull, and with their ears they scarcely hear, and their eyes they have closed; otherwise they might see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them."'

Therefore let it be known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen."

for what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.

For since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his eternal power and deity, has been clearly seen, being understood by the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
