John
|
| 1:1-18 |
1.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God.
2. He was in the beginning with God.
3. All things were made through Him,
and without Him nothing was made that was made.
4. In Him was life, and the life was
the light of men.
5. And the light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6. There was a man sent from God, whose
name was John.
7. This man came for a witness, to bear
witness of the Light, that all through him might believe.
8. He was not that Light, but was sent
to bear witness of that Light.
9. That was the true Light which gives
light to every man who comes into the world.
10. He was in the world, and the world
was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
11. He came to His own, and His own did
not receive Him.
12. But as many as received Him, to them
He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe
in His name:
13. who were born, not of blood, nor
of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14. And the Word became flesh and dwelt
among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of
the Father, full of grace and truth.
15. John bore witness of Him and cried
out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, `He who comes after me
is preferred before me, for He was before me.' ''
16. And of His fullness we have all received,
and grace for grace.
17. For the law was given through Moses,
but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18. No one has seen God at any time.
The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared
Him." |
| 1:29 |
"The next day John saw
Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes
away the sin of the world" |
| 3:3-23 |
3.
"Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you,
unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.''
4. Nicodemus said to Him, "How can
a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's
womb and be born?''
5. Jesus answered, "Most assuredly,
I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter
the kingdom of God.
6. "That which is born of the flesh
is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. "Do not marvel that I said to
you, `You must be born again.'
8. "The wind blows where it wishes,
and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and
where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.''
9. Nicodemus answered and said to Him,
"How can these things be?''
10. Jesus answered and said to him, "Are
you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things?
11. "Most assuredly, I say to you,
We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive
Our witness.
12. "If I have told you earthly
things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly
things?
13. "No one has ascended to heaven
but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.
14. "And as Moses lifted up the
serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
15. "that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have eternal life.
16. "For God so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should
not perish but have everlasting life.
17. "For God did not send His Son
into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might
be saved.
18. "He who believes in Him is not
condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he
has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19. "And this is the condemnation,
that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather
than light, because their deeds were evil.
20. "For everyone practicing evil
hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should
be exposed.
21. "But he who does the truth comes
to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been
done in God.''
22. After these things Jesus and His
disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them
and baptized.
23. Now John also was baptizing in Aenon
near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were
baptized." |
| 3:36 |
"He who believes in the
Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not
see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.'' |
| 4:21-24 |
21.
"Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when
you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22. "You worship what you do not
know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.
23. "But the hour is coming, and
now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and
truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
24. "God is Spirit, and those who
worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.'' |
| 5:24-26 |
24.
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes
in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment,
but has passed from death into life.
25. "Most assuredly, I say to you,
the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the
Son of God; and those who hear will live.
26. "For as the Father has life
in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, . . ." |
| 5:39 |
"You search the Scriptures,
for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which
testify of Me." |
| 6:44-45 |
44.
"How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do
not seek the honor that comes from the only God?
45. "Do not think that I shall accuse
you to the Father; there is one who accuses you Moses, in whom you trust." |
| 6:65 |
"And He said, "Therefore
I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted
to him by My Father.'' " |
| 8:36 |
"Therefore if the Son makes
you free, you shall be free indeed. " |
| 10:9 |
"I am the door. If anyone
enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture" |
| 10:28-30 |
28.
"And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither
shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
29. "My Father, who has given them
to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My
Father's hand.
30. "I and My Father are one.'' |
| 10:38 |
". . .but if I do, though
you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe
that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.'' |
| 11:25-27 |
25.
"Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He
who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.
26. "And whoever lives and believes
in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?''
27. She said to Him, "Yes, Lord,
I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into
the world.'' |
| 12:44-50 |
44.
"And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes,
and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose
him, and let him go.''
45. Then many of the Jews who had come
to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.
46. But some of them went away to the
Pharisees and told them the things Jesus did.
47. Then the chief priests and the Pharisees
gathered a council and said, "What shall we do? For this Man works
many signs.
48. "If we let Him alone like this,
everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both
our place and nation.''
49. And one of them, Caiaphas, being
high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
50. "nor do you consider that it
is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that
the whole nation should perish.'' |
| 14:1-3 |
1.
"Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe
also in Me.
2. "In My Father's house are many
mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a
place for you.
3. "And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am,
there you may be also." |
| 14:6-17 |
6.
"Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the
life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
7. "If you had known Me, you would
have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen
Him.'' |
| 14:26 |
"But the Helper, the Holy
Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things,
and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. " |
| 15:1-8 |
1.
"I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
2. "Every branch in Me that does
not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes,
that it may bear more fruit.
3. "You are already clean because
of the word which I have spoken to you.
4. "Abide in Me, and I in you. As
the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine,
neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5. "I am the vine, you are the branches.
He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you
can do nothing.
6. "If anyone does not abide in
Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and
throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
7. "If you abide in Me, and My words
abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
8. "By this My Father is glorified,
that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. " |
| 15:12 |
"This is My commandment,
that you love one another as I have loved you. " |
| 15:16 |
"You did not choose Me,
but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and
that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My
name He may give you." |
| 15:26 |
"But when the Helper comes,
whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds
from the Father, He will testify of Me." |
| 16:7-16 |
7.
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage
that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you;
but if I depart, I will send Him to you.
8. "And when He has come, He will
convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9. "of sin, because they do not
believe in Me;
10. "of righteousness, because I
go to My Father and you see Me no more;
11. "of judgment, because the ruler
of this world is judged.
12. "I still have many things to
say to you, but you cannot bear them now.
13. "However, when He, the Spirit
of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not
speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He
will tell you things to come.
14. "He will glorify Me, for He
will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.
15. "All things that the Father
has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it
to you.
16. "A little while, and you will
not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go
to the Father.'' |
| 16:28 |
"I came forth from the
Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to
the Father.'' |
| 17:1-8 |
1.
"Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said:
"Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also
may glorify You,
2. "as You have given Him authority
over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have
given Him.
3. "And this is eternal life, that
they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
4. "I have glorified You on the
earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.
5. "And now, O Father, glorify Me
together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the
world was.
6. "I have manifested Your name
to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You
gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
7. "Now they have known that all
things which You have given Me are from You.
8. "For I have given to them the
words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known
surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent
Me." |
| 17:12 |
"While I was with them
in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have
kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture
might be fulfilled." |
| 17:15-18 |
15.
"I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that
You should keep them from the evil one.
16. "They are not of the world,
just as I am not of the world.
17. "Sanctify them by Your truth.
Your word is truth.
18. "As You sent Me into the world,
I also have sent them into the world. " |
| 17:21-22 |
21.
". . .that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I
in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that
You sent Me.
22. "And the glory which You gave
Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:" |
| 18:36 |
"Jesus answered, "My
kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants
would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My
kingdom is not from here.'' |
| 20:1-28 |
1.
"On the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb
early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken
away from the tomb.
2. Then she ran and came to Simon Peter,
and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They
have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they
have laid Him.''
3. Peter therefore went out, and the
other disciple, and were going to the tomb.
4. So they both ran together, and the
other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first.
5. And he, stooping down and looking
in, saw the linen cloths lying there; yet he did not go in.
6. Then Simon Peter came, following him,
and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there,
7. and the handkerchief that had been
around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together
in a place by itself.
8. Then the other disciple, who came
to the tomb first, went in also; and he saw and believed.
9. For as yet they did not know the Scripture,
that He must rise again from the dead.
10. Then the disciples went away again
to their own homes.
11. But Mary stood outside by the tomb
weeping, and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the tomb.
12. And she saw two angels in white sitting,
one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had
lain.
13. Then they said to her, "Woman,
why are you weeping?'' She said to them, "Because they have taken
away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.''
14. Now when she had said this, she turned
around and saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.
15. Jesus said to her, "Woman, why
are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?'' She, supposing Him to be the
gardener, said to Him, "Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me
where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away.''
16. Jesus said to her, "Mary!''
She turned and said to Him, "Rabboni!'' (which is to say, Teacher).
17. Jesus said to her, "Do not cling
to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren
and say to them, `I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to
My God and your God.' ''
18. Mary Magdalene came and told the
disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things
to her.
19. Then, the same day at evening, being
the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples
were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst,
and said to them, "Peace be with you.''
20. Now when He had said this, He showed
them His hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw
the Lord.
21. Then Jesus said to them again, "Peace
to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.''
22. And when He had said this, He breathed
on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
23. "If you forgive the sins of
any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.''
24. But Thomas, called Didymus, one of
the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.
25. The other disciples therefore said
to him, "We have seen the Lord.'' But he said to them, "Unless
I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the
print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.''
26. And after eight days His disciples
were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut,
and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace to you!''
27. Then He said to Thomas, "Reach
your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and
put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.''
28. And Thomas answered and said to Him,
"My Lord and my God!'' |
