And to Him give all the prophets witness, that every one believing on him receives the remission of sins through His name.

There was a man having been sent from God, whose name was John; The same came for a witness, that he might bear witness concerning the light, in order that all through him might believe. He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness concerning the light. read more.
That was the true light, which lighteth every man, coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But so many as received Him, to them gave He the right to become the children of God, to those believing on His name: who were born not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. The Word was made flesh, and tented among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth.

in order that all may honor the Son, as they may honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son honoreth not the Father who sent Him. Truly, truly, I say unto you, that every one hearing my word, and believing on Him that sent me hath eternal life, and doth not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

For as the Father hath life in Himself, so also He has given to His Son to have life also in Himself. And He hath given Him authority to execute the judgment, because He is the Son of man. Do not be astonished at this: because the hour cometh, in which all who are in their graves will hear His voice, and come forth; those having done good, unto the resurrection of life; and those having done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment. I am not able to do anything of myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One having sent me. If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true. There is another who testifieth concerning me; and you know that the testimony which He testifies concerning me is true. You sent to John, and he witnessed to the truth: but I do not receive the witness with man: but I speak these things that you may be saved. He was a bright and shining light: and you were willing to rejoice for an hour in that light. But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works that the Father hath given me that I may perfect them, these works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me. And the Father having sent me, He hath testified concerning me: never have you heard His voice, neither have you seen His face: and you have not His word abiding in you: because you do not believe Him whom He has sent. Search the Scriptures, because in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify concerning me; and you do not wish to come unto me, in order that you may have life. I do not receive glory with men; but I know you that you have not the love of God in you. I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not receive me: if another may come in his own name, you will receive him. How are you able to believe, receiving glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is with God only? Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one accusing you, in whom you have hoped. For if you were believing Moses, you were believing me; for he wrote concerning me. For if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?
For as the Father hath life in Himself, so also He has given to His Son to have life also in Himself. And He hath given Him authority to execute the judgment, because He is the Son of man. Do not be astonished at this: because the hour cometh, in which all who are in their graves will hear His voice, and come forth; those having done good, unto the resurrection of life; and those having done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.

Search the Scriptures, because in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify concerning me; and you do not wish to come unto me, in order that you may have life. I do not receive glory with men; but I know you that you have not the love of God in you. I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not receive me: if another may come in his own name, you will receive him. How are you able to believe, receiving glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is with God only? Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one accusing you, in whom you have hoped. For if you were believing Moses, you were believing me; for he wrote concerning me. For if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?
Therefore indeed having assembled, they asked Him saying, Lord, do you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? He said to them; It is not your province, to know the times or seasons, which the Father placed in His own authority. But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost having come upon you, and shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and in Samaria, and into the extremity of the earth. read more.
And having spoken these words, they looking, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him from their eyes. And while they were gazing up into the heaven, He going, and behold, two men stood by them in white garments, who also said, Ye Galilean men, why stand you looking up into the heaven? this same Jesus, the One having been received up into the heaven, will so come in the manner in which you saw Him going up into the heaven.

And he holding on to Peter and John; all the people ran together to them in the porch called Solomon's, exceedingly astonished. And Peter seeing them, responded to the people; Israelitish men, why are you astonished at this, or why do you look upon us as having by our own power or holiness, made this man to walk about? The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, and the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Child, Jesus, who you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate having decided to release Him. read more.
