I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gayest me to do. And now glorify thou me, Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gayest me out of the world; they were thine, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy word. Now they have known that all things which thou hast given me are of thee, because the words which thou hast given me I have given them; and they have received and known truly that I came forth from thee, and believed that thou didst send me. I pray for them. I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me, for they are thine, and all mine are thine, and thine mine, and I am glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep in thy name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we also are. When I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name which thou gayest me, and preserved [them], and no one of them has been lost, except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled; but now I come to thee, and I say these things in the world that they may have my joy made complete in them. I have given them thy word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives not the Spirit by measure. The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
Then they said to him, Who are you? And Jesus said to them, What at the beginning, and what I tell you [now]. I have many things to say and judge of you; but he that sent me is true; and what I have heard from him, these things I speak in the world. They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father. read more.

He that continues in me and I in him, this man bears much fruit; for separated from me, you can do nothing. If any one continues not in me he is cast without as a branch, and is withered; and they collect them and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If you continue in me, and my words continue in you, you shall ask whatever you will, and it shall be [given] you. By this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit and be my disciples.

I have spoken these things to you that my joy may be in you, and your joy be completed. This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No man has greater love than this, that one should give his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you; I no longer call you servants, for the servant knows not what his Lord does; but I have called you friends: for all things which I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.

I WROTE my first account, O Theophilus, of all things which Jesus did and taught, till the day that having given charge to the apostles whom he chose by the Holy Spirit he was taken up; to whom also he presented himself living after his suffering, by many proofs, being seen by them during forty days, and speaking things relating to the kingdom of God.
Jesus Christ » The words that jesus Christ spoke
The Spirit is that which makes alive; the flesh profits nothing; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some of you who believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would betray him.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away; and every branch that bears fruit he trims, that it may bear more fruit. You are now pure, by means of the word which I have spoken to you;
I know that you are children of Abraham; but you seek to kill me because my word has no place in you. What I have seen with my Father I speak, and you also do what you have heard from your father. They answered and said to him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus said to them, If you were children of Abraham, you would have done the works of Abraham; read more.
but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I have heard from God; Abraham did not do this. You do the works of your father. They said to him, We were not born by fornication, we have one father, God. Jesus said to them, If God was your father you would have loved me; for I came forth and come from God; for I came not of myself, but he sent me. Why do you not understand my speech? because you cannot hear my word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning and stood not by the truth; for truth is not in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own; for he is a liar, and the father of him [that lies]. But because I tell you the truth you believe me not. Who of you convicts me of a sin? If I say the truth, why do you not believe me? He that is of God hears the words of God; you, therefore, hear not, because you are not of God.

Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me. If you had known me you would have known my Father; and from this time you know him and have seen him. Philip said to him, Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied. read more.
Jesus said to him, Have I been so long a time with you and have you not known me, Philip? He that has seen me has seen the Father; and how say you, Show us the Father?

Jesus Christ » History of » Verifies the prophecy of isaiah concerning the unbelieving jews
But though he had performed so many miracles before them they did not believe in him; that the word of Isaiah the prophet, which he spoke, might be fulfilled; Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? For this reason they could not believe, because, Isaiah said again, read more.
He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts, that they should not see with their eyes and understand with their hearts, and be converted, and I should cure them. Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory, and spoke of him. Nevertheless, many of the rulers believed on him, but on account of the Pharisees did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogues; for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God. And Jesus cried and said, He that believes on me, believes not on me but on him that sent me; and he that beholds me beholds him that sent me.

Salvation » Jesus Christ coming to save
But while he was thinking of these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit, and she shall bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
The word is true and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief;
And his disciples James and John seeing it, said, Lord, do you wish us to call fire to come down from heaven and consume them? And he turned around and rebuked them; and they went to another village. (Added verse not retained in Sawyer)
(Added verse not retained in Sawyer) What think you? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them is lost, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountain, and go and seek for the lost one? And if he finds it, I tell you truly that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which were not lost. read more.
So it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
So it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
And he spoke to them this parable; saying, What man of you having a hundred sheep, and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the lost sheep till he finds it. And finding it, he puts it on his shoulders rejoicing; read more.
and coming to the house, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying, Congratulate me; for I have found my sheep that was lost. So, I tell you, there shall be joy in heaven over one sinner that changes his mind, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need a change of mind. Or what woman having ten drachmas [140 cents], if she loses one drachma [14 cents], does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her female friends and neighbors together, saying, Congratulate me, for I have found the drachma which I lost. So, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner that changes his mind. And he said, A certain man had two sons. And the youngest of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the estate that falls to me; and he divided to them his living. And not many days after, the youngest son, collecting all his property, went abroad to a distant country; and there wasted his property, living intemperately. And when he had spent all, there was a severe famine in that country; and he began to be in want. And he went and attached himself to one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his field to feed swine. And he desired to fill his stomach with the carob pods which the swine eat; and no man gave him. And coming to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father abound in bread, but I perish here with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I have sinned to Heaven, and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired servants. And he arose, and came to his father. But while he was yet far off, his father saw him, and had compassion on him, and ran and fell on his neck, and kissed him. And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned to Heaven, and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your son. But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe and put on him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet; and bring the fatted calf and kill it; let us eat, and rejoice; for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to rejoice. But his older son was in the field; and when he came and approached the house he heard music and the dancers. And calling one of the servants he inquired what these things meant. And he said to him, Your brother has come; and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him back in health. And he was angry, and would not go in; but his father came out and entreated him. And he answered and said to his father, Behold, l have served you so many years, and have never disobeyed your command; and you have never given me a kid, that I might rejoice with my friends; but when this your son came who has consumed his living with harlots, you killed for him the fatted calf. But he said to him, Son, you are always with me, and all mine is yours. We ought also to rejoice and be glad; for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
and coming to the house, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying, Congratulate me; for I have found my sheep that was lost.

And Jesus said to him, To-day has salvation come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of man has come to seek and save the lost.
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that every one believing in him may not perish but have eternal life. For God sent not his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world through him might be saved.
