JESUS FAN

manded us to stone such persons; what then dost thou say? 6But this they said to try him, that they might be able to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground. 7But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up, and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast a stone at her. 8And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9And when they heard this, they went out one by one, beginning with the oldest; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman who was in the midst. 10And Jesus lifted himself up and said to her, Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn thee! 11And she said, No one, Lord. And Jesus said, neither do I condemn thee; go, and sin no more. 12Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.] 13The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true. 14Jesus answered and said to them, Though I bear witness of myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go; ye know not whence I come, or whither I go. 15Ye judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. 16But even if I myself should judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and he who sent me. 17Moreover, it is written in your law, that the witness of two men is true. 18I am one who bear witness of myself, and the Father who sent me beareth witness of me. 19They said therefore to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father. If ye knew me, ye would know my Father also. 20These words he spoke in the treasury, while teaching in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come. 21Again therefore he said to them, I go away, and ye will seek me, and will die in your sin. Whither I go, ye cannot come. 22The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come? 23And he said to them, Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world. 24Therefore I said to you, that ye will die in your sins; for unless ye believe that I am He, ye will die in your sins. 25They said therefore to him, Who art thou? Jesus said to them, In the first place, I am just that which I speak to you. 26I have many things to say, and to judge, concerning you; but he who sent me is true; and I speak to the world what I heard from him. 27They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father. 28Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye will know that I am He, and do nothing of myself, but speak these things as the Father taught me. 29And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone, for I always do the things that please him. 30As he spoke these words, many believed in him. 31Jesus therefore said to those Jews who believed in him, If ye continue in my word, ye are truly my disciples; 32and ye will know the truth, and the truth will make you free. 33They answered him, We are Abraham’s offspring, and have never been in bo***ge to any one; how sayest, thou, Ye will be made free? 34Jesus answered them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Every one that committeth sin is a bond-servant of sin. 35And the bond-servant abideth not in the house for ever; the son abideth for ever. 36If therefore the Son make you free, ye will be free indeed. 37I know that ye are Abraham’s offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word is not received within you. 38I speak what I have seen with the Father; and ye accordingly do what ye have seen with your father. 39They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham. 40But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath spoken to you the truth, which I heard from God; this did not Abraham. 41Ye do the works of your father. They said to him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, God. 42Jesus said to them, If God were your father, ye would love me; for from God I proceeded forth and am come; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. 43Why do ye not understand my language? It is because ye cannot listen to my word. 44Ye are of your father the Devil, and what your father desireth ye are ready to do. He was a murderer from the beginning; and he abideth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45But because I speak the truth, ye believe me not. 46Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I speak truth, Why do ye not believe me? 47He that is of God heareth God’s words; for this cause ye do not hear, because ye are not of God. 48The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon? 49Jesus answered, I have not a demon, but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me. 50But I seek not my own glory; there is one that seeketh and judgeth. 51Truly, truly do I say to you, If any one keep my word, he will never see death. 52The Jews said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he will never taste of death. 53Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Whom dost thou make thyself? 54Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom ye say, He is our God: 55yet ye know him not; but I know him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you. But I know him, and keep his word. 56Your father Abraham exulted that he might see my day; and he saw it, and was glad. 57The Jews therefore said to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58Jesus said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, From before Abraham was, I have been. 59They therefore took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple. MAY GOD BLESS IS PEOPLE IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN.
