Thematic Bible




I have written these things unto you, in order that you may know that you have eternal life; to those who believe on the name of the Son of God. And this is the assurance which we have toward him, that, if we may ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us as to whatsoever we may ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked from him.

And Jesus responding said to them, Truly I say unto you, if you may have faith, and doubt not, not only shall you do that of the fig-tree, but you shall say to this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, and it will be done. All things whatsoever you may ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.

And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one asking receives; and the one seeking finds; and to the one knocking it shall be opened.

Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one asking receives; and the one seeking finds; and to the one knocking it shall be opened.

Truly I say unto you, That whosoever may say to this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and may not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says does take place; it shall be unto him. Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever you pray for and ask, believe that you just now received them, and they shall be unto you.

And a dispute came in among them, as to which one of them might be the greater. And Jesus seeing the dispute of their heart, taking a little child, He placed it by Himself, and said to them, Whosoever may receive this little child in my name receives me; and whosoever may receive me receives him that sent me. For he who is least among you all, the same shall be great.

But whosoever may deny me before the people, I will also deny him before my Father who is in the heavens. Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I came to divide a man against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law: read more.
and the enemies of a man will be the inmates of his own house. He that loveth father and mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Whosoever does not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me. The one having found his soul shall lose it; and the one losing his soul for my sake shall find it. The one receiving you will receive me, and the one receiving me will receive Him that sent me. The one receiving a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive the reward of a prophet; and the one receiving a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive the reward of a righteous man.

At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Then which one is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens? And Jesus calling a little child to Him, placed it in the midst of them, and said, Truly I say unto you, unless you may be converted, and become as little children, you can not enter into the kingdom of the heavens. read more.
Therefore whosoever shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens; and whosoever shall receive such little child in my name, receives me.

And sitting down, He called the twelve; and says to them, If any one wishes to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all. And taking a little child, He placed it in their midst; and taking it up in His arms, He said to them, Whosoever may receive one of such little children in my name, receives me: and whosoever may receive me, receives not me, but Him that sent me. read more.
And John responded to Him saying, Teacher, we saw one casting out demons in Thy name, who does not follow us; and we forbade him, because he does not follow us. And Jesus said, Forbid him not. For there is no one who shall do a miracle in my name, and be able quickly to speak evil of me.

Jesus says to Him, He that is bathed hath no need to wash his hands, but is altogether clean: and you are clean, but not all. For He knew the one betraying Him. On this account He said, You are not all clean. Then when He washed their feet, and took His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, Do you understand what I have done to you? read more.
You call me Master and Lord, and you speak beautifully; for I am. If then I, your Lord and Master, washed your feet, you ought also to wash the feet of one another. For I have given unto you an example, that you may also do as I have done to you. Truly, truly, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; nor the apostle greater than him that sent him. If you know these things, happy are ye if you may do them. I do not speak concerning you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me has lifted up his heel against me. Now I tell you before it takes place, in order that you may believe, when it may be done, that I am He. Truly, truly, I say unto you, The one receiving the one whom I may send, receiveth me; and the one receiving me, receives Him that sent me.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him nothing was made, that has been made. read more.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of the men. And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not. 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. 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.

But whosoever may deny me before the people, I will also deny him before my Father who is in the heavens. Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

And He calls the twelve to Him, and began to send them out two by two; and He gave them authority over unclean spirits.

And He said to them, Into whatsoever house you may enter, there abide until you may go out from thence. And whatsoever place may not receive you nor hear you, going forth thence, shake off the dust which is beneath your feet for a testimony unto them.

And calling the twelve, He gave to them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases. And He sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. And He said to them, Take nothing for the journey, neither staff, nor valise, nor bread, nor silver; nor to have two coats. read more.
And into whatsoever house you may eaten there abide, and go out from thence. And so many as may not receive you, going out from that city, knock off the dust of your feet for a testimony against them.

And Jesus sent out the twelve, commanding them, Go not in the way of the Gentiles, and enter not into a city of the Samaritans. But go ye rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And going, preach, saying, That the kingdom of the heavens is at hand. read more.
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons: freely you did receive, freely give. Take not gold, nor silver, nor copper in your girdles; nor valise for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food. And into whatsoever city or village you may enter, investigate who in it is worthy; and there abide until you may go hence. And going into a house, salute it. And if the house may be worthy, let your peace come on it: but if it may be unworthy, let your peace return unto you. And whosoever may not receive you, nor hear your words, going out from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. Truly I say unto you, It will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

After these things the Lord chose seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before His face, into every place and city, where He was about to come. And He said to them, The harvest is indeed great, but the laborers are few: therefore pray you the Lord of the harvest, that He may send forth laborers into His harvest. Go: behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. read more.
Take neither purse, nor valise, nor sandals: salute no one by the way. Into whatsoever house you may enter, first say, Peace be unto this house. And if the son of peace may be there, your peace shall rest upon it: but if not, it shall return unto you. Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house. Into whatsoever city you may enter and they may receive you, eat those things which are placed by you: and heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you. And into whatsoever city you may enter, and they may not receive you, having come out into the streets of the same, say, Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, do we wipe off against you: but know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand. For I say unto you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.

In Him was life, and the life was the light of the men. And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not. 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. 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.

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. Truly, truly, I say unto you, that the hour cometh and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and having heard will live. read more.
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?


But Jesus cried out and said; The one believing on me, believes not on me, but on Him that sent me, and the one seeing me, sees the one that sent me. I have come a light into the world, in order that every one believing on me may not abide in darkness. read more.
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. He that rejects me, and receiving not my words, has one judging him: the word which I have spoken, it will judge him in the last day. Because I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father Himself having sent me, gave me commandment, what I shall speak, and what I shall say.
