Jesus Christ » What jesus Christ speaks
As he was thus speaking, one of the servants who stood by him gave Jesus a slap on the face, saying, Dost thou answer the high-priest in this fashion? Jesus replied to him, If I have spoken in an improper manner, bear witness of the evil deed: but if properly, why strikest thou me?
THESE things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee: even as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that with regard to all those whom thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life: and this is eternal life, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou hast sent, Jesus, the Messiah. read more.
I have glorified thee upon earth: I have completed the work which thou gavest me to perform. And now, Father, do thou glorify me with thyself in the glory which I held with thee before the world was. I have made known thy name to the persons whom thou gavest me out of the world: for thee they had a being, and to me thou hast given them; and thy word have they kept. Now have they known, that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee. For the declarations which thou gavest to me I have delivered to them; and they have received them, and have known assuredly that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou hast sent me. I entreat for them: I make no request for the world; but for those thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine mine; and I have been glorified in them. And now no longer am I in this world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to thee. Holy Father! preserve them for thy name's sake whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. When I was with them in the world, I preserved them by thy name: those whom thou hast given me have I guarded, and not one of them is perished, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. But now I am coming to thee; and I am speaking these things in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

And if any man, hearing my words, believeth not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that sets me at nought, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: even the word which I have spoken, the same shall judge him at the last day. Because I have not spoken of myself; but the Farther who has sent me, he gave me commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life eternal: therefore the things which I speak to you, just as the Father spake to me, so speak I.

I AM the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth no fruit, he taketh it away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he pruneth it clean, that it may bring forth more fruit. Ye are already clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. read more.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done for you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye should bring forth much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. Just as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and as I abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy may abide in you, and your joy may be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever things I command you. I no more call you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his master is doing: but I have called you friends because I have made known to you all things which I have heard of my Father.

His disciples said unto him, Lo! now thou speakest plainly, and speakest in no-wise proverbial. Now we know that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any person should ask thee: by this we believe that thou hast come forth from God. Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? read more.
