Jesus Christ » What jesus Christ speaks
And He speaking these things, one of the officers standing by gave Jesus a slap, saying, Do you thus answer the high priest? Jesus responded to him, If I spoke wickedly, witness concerning the wickedness: but if beautifully, why do you smite me?
Jesus spoke these words; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, said, Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son, in order that the Son may glorify thee: as thou didst give Him authority over all flesh, in order that whatsoever thou hast given unto Him, He may give unto them eternal life. But this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou didst send. read more.
I glorified thee upon the earth, having finished the work that thou hast given to me that I may do it. And now, Father, glorify thou me with thyself with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name, to the men whom thou didst give me out of the world. They were thine, and thou didst give them to me; and they have kept thy word: now they know that all things so many as thou hast given to me are with thee: because the words which thou didst give me I have given unto them; and they received them, and they know truly that I came out from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me. I pray for these: I pray not for the world; but for those whom thou hast given me, because they are thine: and all mine are thine, and thine are mine: and I have been glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world, and they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them through my name whom thou hast given unto me, in order that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them, I was keeping them in thy name whom thou hast given unto me. And I guarded them, and no one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the Scripture may be fulfilled. And now I come to thee; and speak these things in the world, that they may have my joy complete in themselves. I have given unto them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

And if any one may hear my words, and not keep them, I do not judge him: for I came not that I may judge the world, but that I may save the world.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me not producing fruit, He takes it away: and every one producing fruit, He purifies it, that it may produce more fruit. So ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. read more.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch is not able to produce fruit of itself, unless it may abide in the vine; so you are not able, unless you may abide in me. I am the vine, and ye are the branches. The one abiding in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: because you are not able to do anything without me. If any one may not abide in me, he is cast out as a branch, and withered; and they gather it, and cast it into the fire, and it is burnt. If you may abide in me, and my words may abide in you, ask whatsoever you may wish, and it shall be done unto you. In this my Father is glorified, that you may bear much fruit; and ye shall be my disciples. As the Father loved me, I also loved you: abide in my love. If you may keep my commandments, abide in my love; as I have kept the commandments of my Father, and I abide in His love. I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you may love one another, as I loved you. No one has greater love than this, that he may lay down his soul for his friends. You are my friends, if you may do those things which I command you. No longer do I call you servants; because the servant knows not what his lord is doing: but I have called you friends; because all things which I heard with my Father, I made known unto you.

I know ye are the seed of Abraham; but you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you. Whatsoever I have seen with the Father I speak: you therefore are doing the things which you heard with your father. They responded and said to Him, Abraham is our Father. Jesus says to them, If you were the children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham. read more.
But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard with God: Abraham did not this. You are doing the works of your father. They said to Him, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, God. Jesus said to them; If God were your Father, you would love me: for I came out from God, and I return; for I have not spoken from myself, but He sent me. Wherefore do you not understand my speech? Because you are not able to hear my word. You are of your father the devil, and you wish to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, because there was no truth in him. When he may speak a lie, he speaks of his own: because he is a liar, and the father of the same. And because I speak the truth, you do not believe me. Which one of you convicts me concerning sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me? The one being of God hears the words of God: on account of this you do not hear, because you are not of God.

and having come into the house, calls together the friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you that so there will be joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, rather than ninety and nine just persons who have not need of repentance.

And the younger of them said to the father, Father, give to me the portion of the estate that falls to me. And he immediately divided unto them his living. And not many days afterward the younger son gathering all together, departed into a far-off country; and there wasted his substance living riotously. And he having expended all, a severe famine came into that country; and he began to be in want. And having gone he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country: and he sent him into his fields to feed swine: and he was desiring to fill his stomach from the pods, which the swine were eating: and no one gave unto him: and having come to himself he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread in abundance, but here I perish with hunger! Having risen I will go to my father, and say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight: and I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. And having risen, he came to his father. And he being yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having run, fell upon his neck, and kissed him copiously. And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight: and I am no more worthy to be called thy son. And the father said to his servants, Bring hither the first robe, and put it on him; and give a ring to his hand, and sandals to his feet: and bring hither the fatted calf, slay him, and eating, let us be merry: because this my son was dead, and is alive again; was lost, and is found.

And calling one of the servants, asked him what these things might be. And he said to him, Because thy brother has come; and thy father has slain the fatted calf, because he received him sound. And he was angry, and did not wish to come in: and his father having gone out, continued to intreat him. And responding he said to the father, Behold, I serve thee so many years, and have never transgressed thy commandment: and thou hast never given me a kid, that I may rejoice with my friends: but when this thy son, the one devouring thy living with harlots came, thou hast slain for him the fatted calf. And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all mine are thine: and it behooved me to be glad and rejoice; because this thy brother was dead, and is alive; was lost, and is found.
