But everyone who is living the truth will come to the light, to show that his actions have been performed in dependence upon God.

John too was baptizing at Aenon, near Salim, for there was plenty of water there, and people came there and were baptized.

So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph,

A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."

The woman said to him, "Give me this water, sir, so that I may never be thirsty, nor have to come all this way to draw water."

He said to her, "Go and call your husband and come back here."

Just then his disciples came back, and they were surprised to find him talking with a woman, yet no one of them asked him what he wanted or why he was talking with her.

"Come, here is a man who has told me everything I ever did! Do you suppose he is the Christ?"

Are you not saying, 'Four months more and the harvest will come'? Look, I tell you! Raise your eyes and see the fields, for they are white for harvesting.

Many of the Samaritans in that town came to believe in him because of the testimony the woman gave when she said, "He has told me everything I ever did!"

So when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they asked him to stay with them, and he did stay there two days.

So he came back to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water into wine. There was at Capernaum one of the king's officials whose son was sick.

When he heard that Jesus had come back from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and begged him to come down and cure his son, for he was at the point of death.

The official said to him, "Come down, sir, before my child is dead!"

For just as the Father awakens the dead and makes them come to life, the Son makes anyone whom he chooses come to life.

I tell you, whoever listens to my message and believes him who has sent me, possesses eternal life, and will not come to judgment, but has already passed out of death into life.

and those who have done right will come out to resurrection and life, and those who have done wrong, to resurrection and judgment.

yet you refuse to come to me for life.

I have come in my Father's name, and you refuse to accept me. If someone else comes in his own name you will accept him.

When the people saw the signs that he showed, they said, "This is really the Prophet who was to come into the world!"

So Jesus, seeing that they meant to come and carry him off to make him king, retired again to the hill by himself.

Jesus answered, "I tell you, it is not because of the signs you have seen that you have come in search of me, but because you ate that bread and had all you wanted of it.

Then they said to him, "Then what sign do you show for us to see and so come to believe you? What work are you doing?

All that my Father gives to me will come to me, and I will never refuse anyone who comes to me,

for I have come down from heaven not to do what I please but what pleases him who has sent me.

The Jews complained of him for saying, "I am the bread that has come out of heaven,"

and they said, "Is he not Joseph's son, Jesus, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I have come down out of heaven'?"

No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him to me; then I myself will raise him to life on the Last Day.

In the prophets it is written, 'And all men will be taught by God!' Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him will come to me.

I am this living bread that has come down out of heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever, and the bread that I will give for the world's life is my own flesh!"

This is the bread that has come down out of heaven??ot like that which your forefathers ate and yet died. Whoever lives on this bread will live forever."

And he added, "This is why I said to you, 'No one can come to me unless he is enabled to do so by the Father.' "

So Jesus, as he was teaching in the Temple, cried out, "You do know me and you do know where I come from, and I have not come of my own accord but someone who is very real, whom you do not know, has sent me.

I do know him, because I come from him, and he has sent me here."

Now on the last day, the great day of the festival, Jesus stood up and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

He meant by this the Spirit which those who believed in him were to receive??or the Spirit had not yet come, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Others said, "This is the Christ!" But they rejoined, "What! Is the Christ to come from Galilee?

Do not the Scriptures say that the Christ is to spring from the descendants of David and to come from the village of Bethlehem where David lived?"

Jesus answered, "Even if I am testifying to myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I have come from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

Then he said to them again, "I am going away, and you will look for me, but you will die in the midst of your sin. You cannot come where I am going."

So the Jews said, "Is he going to kill himself, and is that why he says, 'You cannot come where I am going'?"

Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I have come from God. I have not come of my own accord, but he has sent me.

yet you have never come to know him. But I know him. If I say I do not know him, I will be a liar like yourselves. No! I do know him, and I am faithful to his message.

Then some of the Pharisees said, "This man does not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." But others said, "How can a sinful man show such signs as this?" And there was a division of opinion among them.

We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this man came from."

The man answered, "There is something very strange about this! You do not know where he came from, and yet he has made me able to see!

And Jesus said, "I have come into this world to judge men, that those who cannot see may see, and that those who can see may become blind."

All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep would not obey them.

A thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come to let them have life, and to let them have it in abundance.

And people came to him in great numbers, and they said of him, "John did not show any sign in proof of his mission, but all that he said about this man was true."

and a number of Jews had come out to see Mary and Martha, to condole with them about their brother.

She said to him, "Yes, Master, I do indeed believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

for Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him.

When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, and said, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died!"

When Jesus saw her weep and the Jews who had come with her weeping too, repressing a groan, and yet showing great agitation,

he said, "Where have you laid him?" They answered, "Come and see, Master."

After saying this he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

The dead man came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and with his face muffled with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him move."

So it came about that many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary and saw what Jesus did, came to believe in him,

If we let him go on, everybody will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and put an end to our holy place and our people."

So they were looking for Jesus there, and asking one another as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think? Do you think he will not come to the festival at all?"

Six days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead, was living.

A great many of the Jews found out that he was there, and they came to Bethany not only to see Jesus but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

On the following day the crowds that had come up to the festival, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

There were some Greeks among those who had come up to worship at the festival,

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

Now my heart is troubled; what am I to say? Father, save me from this trial! And yet it was for this very purpose that I have come to this trial.

Father, honor your own name!" Then there came a voice from the sky, "I have honored it, and I will honor it again!"

Jesus answered, "It was not for my sake that the voice came, but for yours.

Yet for all that, even among the leading men, many came to believe in him, but on account of the Pharisees they would not acknowledge it, for fear of being excluded from the synagogues,

I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me may have to remain in darkness.

If anyone hears my words and disregards them, it is not I that judge him, for I have not come to judge the world but to save the world.

Before the Passover Festival began, Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father, but he had loved those who were his own in the world, and he loved them to the last.

So at supper??he devil having by this time put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son??3 Jesus, fully aware that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God,

So he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, "Master, are you going to wash my feet?"

And if I go and make it ready, I will come back and take you with me, so that you may be where I am.

Jesus said to him, "I am Way and Truth and Life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

Jesus answered, "Anyone who loves me will observe my teaching, and my Father will love him and we will come to him and live with him.

but he is coming that the world may know that I love the Father and am doing what he has commanded me to do. Come, let us go away.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin, but as it is, they have no excuse for their sin.

Yet it is only the truth when I tell you that it is better for you that I should go away. For if I do not go, the Helper will not come to you, but if I go I will send him to you.

but when the Spirit of Truth comes, he will guide you into the full truth, for he will not speak for himself but will tell what he hears, and will announce to you the things that are to come.

When a woman is in labor she is sorrowful, for her time has come; but when the child is born, she forgets her pain in her joy that a human being has been brought into the world.

for the Father loves you himself because you love me and believe that I have come from the Father.

I did come from the Father and enter the world. Now I am leaving the world again and going back to the Father."

Now we know that you know everything and do not need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you have really come from God."

Why, a time is coming??t has already come!??hen you will all be scattered to your homes and will leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

When Jesus had said all this he raised his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the time has come. Do honor to your son, that your son may do honor to you,

for I have given them the truths that you gave me, and they have accepted them and been convinced that I came from you, and they believe that you sent me.

As long as I was with them I kept them by your power which you gave me, and I protected them, and not one of them was lost (except the one who was destined to be lost), so that what the Scripture says might come true.

I have given them your message, and the world has come to hate them, for they do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.

"It is not for them only that I make this request. It is also for those who through their message come to believe in me.

So Judas got out the garrison and some attendants from the high priests and Pharisees, and came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

Then Jesus, as he knew everything that was going to happen to him, came forward and said to them, "Who is it you are looking for?"

So Pilate came outside to them, and said, "What charge do you make against this man?"

Pilate said to him, "Then you are a king?" Jesus answered, "As you say, I am a king. It was for this that I was born and for this that I came to the world, to give testimony for truth. Everyone who is on the side of truth listens to my voice."

So Jesus came out, still wearing the wreath of thorns and the purple coat. And Pilate said to them, "Here is the man!"

and he went back into the governor's house and said to Jesus, "Where do you come from?" But Jesus made no answer.

But when they came to Jesus they saw that he was dead already, and they did not break his legs,

And Nicodemus also, who had first come to Jesus at night, went, taking a roll of myrrh and aloes weighing about a hundred pounds.
