'One' in the Bible

I do not seek My glory; the One who seeks it also judges.

“If I glorify Myself,” Jesus answered, “My glory is nothing. My Father—you say about Him, ‘He is our God’—He is the One who glorifies Me.

We must do the works of Him who sent Me while it is day. Night is coming when no one can work.

Some said, “He’s the one.” “No,” others were saying, “but he looks like him.”He kept saying, “I’m the one!”

The Jews did not believe this about him—that he was blind and received sight—until they summoned the parents of the one who had received his sight.

They asked them, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”

He answered, “Whether or not He’s a sinner, I don’t know. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I can see!”

Throughout history no one has ever heard of someone opening the eyes of a person born blind.

Jesus answered, “You have seen Him; in fact, He is the One speaking with you.”

The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

But I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock, one shepherd.

No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down on My own. I have the right to lay it down, and I have the right to take it up again. I have received this command from My Father.”

I give them eternal life, and they will never perish—ever! No one will snatch them out of My hand.

My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.

The Father and I are one.”

do you say, ‘You are blaspheming’ to the One the Father set apart and sent into the world, because I said: I am the Son of God?

Mary was the one who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, and it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.

So the sisters sent a message to Him: “Lord, the one You love is sick.”

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live.

One of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!

You’re not considering that it is to your advantage that one man should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish.”

They were looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple complex: “What do you think? He won’t come to the festival, will He?”

Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany where Lazarus was, the one Jesus had raised from the dead.

So they gave a dinner for Him there; Martha was serving them, and Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with Him.

Then one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot (who was about to betray Him), said,

Then a large crowd of the Jews learned He was there. They came not only because of Jesus, but also to see Lazarus the one He had raised from the dead.

Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You see? You’ve accomplished nothing. Look—the world has gone after Him!”

The one who loves his life will lose it, and the one who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

Jesus answered, “The light will be with you only a little longer. Walk while you have the light so that darkness doesn’t overtake you. The one who walks in darkness doesn’t know where he’s going.

Then Jesus cried out, “The one who believes in Me believes not in Me, but in Him who sent Me.

And the one who sees Me sees Him who sent Me.

The one who rejects Me and doesn’t accept My sayings has this as his judge: The word I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

“One who has bathed,” Jesus told him, “doesn’t need to wash anything except his feet, but he is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”

So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

“I assure you: A slave is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.

I’m not speaking about all of you; I know those I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: The one who eats My bread has raised his heel against Me.

I assure you: Whoever receives anyone I send receives Me, and the one who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”

When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in His spirit and testified, “I assure you: One of you will betray Me!”

The disciples started looking at one another—uncertain which one He was speaking about.

One of His disciples, the one Jesus loved, was reclining close beside Jesus.

Jesus replied, “He’s the one I give the piece of bread to after I have dipped it.” When He had dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son.

“I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you must also love one another.

By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Jesus said to him, “Have I been among you all this time without your knowing Me, Philip? The one who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

“I assure you: The one who believes in Me will also do the works that I do. And he will do even greater works than these, because I am going to the Father.

The one who has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me. And the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father. I also will love him and will reveal Myself to him.”

The one who doesn’t love Me will not keep My words. The word that you hear is not Mine but is from the Father who sent Me.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without Me.

This is My command: Love one another as I have loved you.

No one has greater love than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.

This is what I command you: Love one another.

But they will do all these things to you on account of My name, because they don’t know the One who sent Me.

The one who hates Me also hates My Father.

If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not have sin. Now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father.

“When the Counselor comes, the One I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about Me.

“But now I am going away to Him who sent Me, and not one of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’

Therefore some of His disciples said to one another, “What is this He tells us: ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?”

Jesus knew they wanted to question Him, so He said to them, “Are you asking one another about what I said, ‘A little while and you will not see Me; again a little while and you will see Me’?

So you also have sorrow now. But I will see you again. Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will rob you of your joy.

This is eternal life:that they may know You, the only true God,and the One You have sent—Jesus Christ.

I am no longer in the world,but they are in the world,and I am coming to You.Holy Father,protect them by Your namethat You have given Me,so that they may be one as We are one.

While I was with them,I was protecting them by Your namethat You have given Me.I guarded them and not one of them is lost,except the son of destruction,so that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

I am not prayingthat You take them out of the worldbut that You protect them from the evil one.

May they all be one,as You, Father, are in Me and I am in You.May they also be one in Us,so the world may believe You sent Me.

I have given them the glory You have given Me.May they be one as We are one.

I am in them and You are in Me.May they be made completely one,so the world may know You have sent Meand have loved them as You have loved Me.

This was to fulfill the words He had said: “I have not lost one of those You have given Me.”

Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was advantageous that one man should die for the people.

But Peter remained standing outside by the door. So the other disciple, the one known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the girl who was the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.

Then the slave girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?”“I am not!” he said.

When He had said these things, one of the temple police standing by slapped Jesus, saying, “Is this the way you answer the high priest?”

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, “You aren’t one of His disciples too, are you?”He denied it and said, “I am not!”

One of the high priest’s slaves, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you with Him in the garden?”

You have a custom that I release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So, do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”

“You would have no authority over Me at all,” Jesus answered him, “if it hadn’t been given you from above. This is why the one who handed Me over to you has the greater sin.”

There they crucified Him and two others with Him, one on either side, with Jesus in the middle.

When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took His clothes and divided them into four parts, a part for each soldier. They also took the tunic, which was seamless, woven in one piece from the top.

So they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it, to see who gets it.” They did this to fulfill the Scripture that says: They divided My clothes among themselves, and they cast lots for My clothing. And this is what the soldiers did.

So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other one who had been crucified with Him.

But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out.

For these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: Not one of His bones will be broken.

Also, another Scripture says: They will look at the One they pierced.

There was a garden in the place where He was crucified. A new tomb was in the garden; no one had yet been placed in it.

So she ran to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put Him!”

She saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet, where Jesus’ body had been lying.

But one of the Twelve, Thomas (called “Twin”), was not with them when Jesus came.

Therefore the disciple, the one Jesus loved, said to Peter, “It is the Lord!”When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tied his outer garment around him (for he was stripped) and plunged into the sea.

So Peter turned around and saw the disciple Jesus loved following them. That disciple was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and asked, “Lord, who is the one that’s going to betray You?”

And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which, if they were written one by one, I suppose not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written.

For he was one of our number and was allotted a share in this ministry.”

“For it is written in the Book of Psalms:Let his dwelling become desolate;let no one live in it; andLet someone else take his position.

beginning from the baptism of John until the day He was taken up from us—from among these, it is necessary that one become a witness with us of His resurrection.”

When the day of Pentecost had arrived, they were all together in one place.

And tongues, like flames of fire that were divided, appeared to them and rested on each one of them.

When this sound occurred, a crowd came together and was confused because each one heard them speaking in his own language.

They were all astounded and perplexed, saying to one another, “What could this be?”

because You will not leave me in Hadesor allow Your Holy One to see decay.

Since he was a prophet, he knew that God had sworn an oath to him to seat one of his descendants on his throne.

and they recognized that he was the one who used to sit and beg at the Beautiful Gate of the temple complex. So they were filled with awe and astonishment at what had happened to him.
