- So if I, your Lord and Teacher,
have washed your feet,
you also should wash one another’s feet. - And eternal life is this:
to know you,
the only true God,
and the one you have sent,
Jesus Christ. - If you know me,
then you will know my Father also.
From now on you do know him.
You have seen him. - Whoever believes in me,
as Scripture has said,
‘Streams of living water
shall flow from within him.’ - This is the commandment
we have received from him:
whoever loves God
must also love his brother. - Through him all things came into existence,
and without him there was nothing.
That which came to be. - For everyone born of God
conquers the world.
And the victory that conquers the world
is our faith. - No one has ever seen God.
It is the only Son, God,
who is at the Father’s side,
who has made him known. - Jesus replied,
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father
except through me.” - God abides in anyone who acknowledges
that Jesus is the Son of God,
and that person abides in God. - Jesus replied,
“Amen, amen, I say to you,
no one can see the kingdom of God
without being born from above.” - When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
- I am the gate.
Anyone who enters through me
will be saved.
He will go in and out
and will find pasture. - I am not asking you
to take them out of the world,
but I do ask you
to protect them from the evil one. - Whoever denies the Son
does not have the Father,
but whoever acknowledges the Son
has the Father also. - And the world with all its enticements
is passing away,
but whoever does the will of God
abides forever. - Whoever possesses the Son
possesses life;
whoever does not possess the Son of God
does not possess life. - Beloved,
let us love one another,
because love is from God.
Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. - If you abide in me
and my words abide in you,
you may ask for whatever you wish,
and it will be done for you. - No one has ever seen God,
but if we love one another,
God abides in us,
and his love is made complete in us. - I came from the Father
and have come into the world.
Now I am leaving the world
and returning to the Father. - I give you a new commandment:
love one another.
Just as I have loved you,
so you should also love one another. - He is himself the sacrifice for our sins—
and not only for our sins
but also for the sins of the whole world. - Jesus said,
“Amen, amen, I say to you,
no one can enter the kingdom of God
unless he is born of water and the Spirit.” - A thief comes only
to steal and kill and destroy.
I have come
that they may have life,
and have it in abundance.
Jesus then said,
“I will remain with you
only for a short time longer,
and then I shall return
to him who sent me.”Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
