He that believeth on me believeth not on me, but on Him that sent me and he that seeth me seeth Him that sent me. I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him : the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the

last day. For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, He gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that His commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so S. John xii. 44–50. I speak.

All things are delivered unto me of my Father and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him.

What think ye of Christ? of Christ? Whose Son is he. How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David? For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand till I make thine enemies my footstool. David therefore himself calleth him Lord, and whence is he then his son ?. How then doth David in spirit call him Lord?

My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.. Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can

do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do for what things soever He doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that Himself doeth and He will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth. But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say that ye might be saved. He was a burning and a shining light; and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. But I have greater witness than that of John for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me that the Father hath sent me. And the Father Himself which hath sent me hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape. And ye have not His word abiding in you for whom He hath sent, him ye believe not. Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me that ye might have life. I receive not

honor from men. But I know you, that ye
have not the love of God in you. I am come
in
my Father's name, and ye receive me not:
if another shall come in his own name, him
ye will receive. How can ye believe, which
receive honor one of another, and seek not
the honor that cometh from God only? Do
not think that I will accuse you to the Father;
there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in
whom ye trust.
For had ye believed Moses,

Give me to drink. . If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life..

Go call thy husband, and come hither.. Thou hast well said, I have no husband: for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom

thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly. .

Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what we know what we worship for salvation is of the Jews.

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. .

I that speak unto thee am he.

I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and Father are one. my Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of these works do ye
