But whoever would deny me before men, I also will deny him before my Father in the heavens. Think not that I came to spread peace on the earth. I came not to spread peace, but a sword.

And a man's foes, are those of his own household. He who loves father or mother above me is not worthy of me, and he who loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.

He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me. He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward.

Jesus says to him, He who is bathed has no need to wash the feet either, but is entirely clean. And ye are clean, but not all. For he knew the man betraying him.

For I have given you an example, so that just as I have done to you ye also should do. Truly, truly, I say to you, a bondman is not greater than his lord, nor is an apostle greater than he who sent him. If ye have seen these things, blessed are ye if ye do them. I speak not about you all. I have seen whom I chose, but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He who eats bread with me lifted up his heel against me. From henceforth I tell you before it happens, so that when it happens, ye may believe that I am. Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives any man whomever I may send, receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.

Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, receives me, and whoever may receive me, does not receive me, but him who sent me. And John answered him, saying, Teacher, we saw a certain man, who does not follow us, casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow us. But Jesus said, Forbid him not, for there is no man who will do a mighty work in my name, and will be able quickly to speak evil of me.

so that all would honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. The man not honoring the Son, does not honor the Father who sent him. Truly, truly, I say to you, that he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life. And he does not come into condemnation, but has passed from death into life. Truly, truly, I say to you, that an hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. read more.
For as the Father has life in himself, so also he gave to the Son to have life in himself. And he also gave him authority to execute judgment because he is a son of man. Marvel not at this, because an hour comes in which all those in the sepulchers will hear his voice, and will come forth, those who have done right to a resurrection of life, and those who have practiced wrong to a resurrection of judgment. I can from myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge. And my judgment is righteous because I seek not my will, but the will of the Father who sent me. If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid. There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony that he testifies about me is valid. Ye have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth. But I do not take the testimony from man. However, I say these things, so that ye may be saved. That man was the lamp that burns and shines, and ye were willing to rejoice for an hour in his light. But I have testimony greater than of John, for the works that the Father has given me so that I might complete them, the same works that I do, they testify about me that the Father has sent me. And the Father, he who sent me, has testified about me.Ye have neither heard his voice, nor have ever seen his appearance. And ye have not his word dwelling in you, because ye do not believe that man whom he sent for this. Ye search the scriptures, because ye think to have eternal life in them, and those are testifying about me. And ye will not come to me, so that ye may have life. I do not receive glory from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God within yourselves. I have come in my Father's name, and ye do not accept me. If another man should come in his own name, ye will accept that man. How can ye believe, who receive glory from each other, and seek not the glory from the only God? Think not that I will accuse you to the Father. The man who accuses you is Moses, in whom ye have hoped. For if ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me, for that man wrote about me. But if ye believe not the writings of that man, how will ye believe my sayings?

What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we looked upon, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life (and the life was made known, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father, and was made known to us), what we have seen and heard we also declare to you, so that ye also may have fellowship with us. Even also our fellowship with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

And I saw the heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and he who sits upon it called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. And his eyes are a flame of fire, and upon his head are many diadems having names written, and a name written that none knows except he himself, and clothed in a garment dipped in blood. And his name is called The Word of God. read more.
And the armies in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, pure white. And a sharp two-edged sword comes out of his mouth, so that he would smite the nations by it. And he will tend them with a rod of iron. And he treads the winepress of the wine of the wrath of the anger of the Almighty God.

O LORD God of hosts, who is a mighty one like thee, O LORD? And thy faithfulness is round about thee. Thou rule the pride of the sea. When the waves of it arise, thou still them. Thou have broken Rahab in pieces, as a wounded man. Thou have scattered thine enemies with the arm of thy strength. read more.
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine, the world and the fullness of it; thou have founded them.

But LORD is the TRUE God. He is the living God, and an everlasting King. At his wrath the earth trembles, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation. Thus ye shall say to them: The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens. He has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding he has stretched out the heavens.

For, passing through and examining your religious objects, I also found an altar on which had been engraved, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye worship unknowingly, him I proclaim to you.
