'Believe' in the Bible

But to all who have received him -- those who believe in his name -- he has given the right to become God's children

Jesus said to him, "Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these."

If I have told you people about earthly things and you don't believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?

Jesus said to her, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

They said to the woman, "No longer do we believe because of your words, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this one really is the Savior of the world."

So Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders you will never believe!"

nor do you have his word residing in you, because you do not believe the one whom he sent.

How can you believe, if you accept praise from one another and don't seek the praise that comes from the only God?

If you believed Moses, you would believe me, because he wrote about me.

But if you do not believe what Moses wrote, how will you believe my words?"

Jesus replied, "This is the deed God requires -- to believe in the one whom he sent."

So they said to him, "Then what miraculous sign will you perform, so that we may see it and believe you? What will you do?

But I told you that you have seen me and still do not believe.

But there are some of you who do not believe." (For Jesus had already known from the beginning who those were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.)

We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God!"

Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."

Now the Jewish religious leaders refused to believe that he had really been blind and had gained his sight until at last they summoned the parents of the man who had become able to see.

Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, so he found the man and said to him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"

The man replied, "And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?"

[He said, "Lord, I believe," and he worshiped him.

Jesus replied, "I told you and you do not believe. The deeds I do in my Father's name testify about me.

But you refuse to believe because you are not my sheep.

If I do not perform the deeds of my Father, do not believe me.

But if I do them, even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds, so that you may come to know and understand that I am in the Father and the Father is in me."

and I am glad for your sake that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him."

and the one who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

She replied, "Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God who comes into the world."

Jesus responded, "Didn't I tell you that if you believe, you would see the glory of God?"

I knew that you always listen to me, but I said this for the sake of the crowd standing around here, that they may believe that you sent me."

Although Jesus had performed so many miraculous signs before them, they still refused to believe in him,

For this reason they could not believe, because again Isaiah said,

But Jesus shouted out, "The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me,

I am telling you this now, before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe that I am he.

"Do not let your hearts be distressed. You believe in God; believe also in me.

Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you, I do not speak on my own initiative, but the Father residing in me performs his miraculous deeds.

Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me, but if you do not believe me, believe because of the miraculous deeds themselves.

I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe.

"I am not praying only on their behalf, but also on behalf of those who believe in me through their testimony,

And the person who saw it has testified (and his testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth), so that you also may believe.

The other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he replied, "Unless I see the wounds from the nails in his hands, and put my finger into the wounds from the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it!"

Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and examine my hands. Extend your hand and put it into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe."

But these are recorded so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
