John 10:42

So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:

“Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?”

Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

Have any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?

His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

Many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

Israel saw the great work which Yahweh did to the Egyptians, and the people feared Yahweh; and they believed in Yahweh and in his servant Moses.

Zedekiah the king said to Jeremiah, “I am afraid of the Jews who have defected to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.”

But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John, for the works which the Father gave me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.

But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

If I hadn’t done among them the works which no one else did, they wouldn’t have had sin. But now they have seen and also hated both me and my Father.

The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in Yahweh is kept safe.

“Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Don’t fear the reproach of men, and don’t be dismayed at their insults.

“Whom have you dreaded and feared, so that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven’t I held my peace for a long time, and you don’t fear me?

Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.

and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”

All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”

Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

The same came to him by night, and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him.”

So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.

From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I did.”

Many more believed because of his word.

As he spoke these things, many believed in him.

Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did believed in him.

Nevertheless even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”

But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning God’s Kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.

This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

They, being sent on their way by the assembly, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles. They caused great joy to all the brothers.

You shall roast and eat it in the place which Yahweh your God chooses. In the morning you shall return to your tents.

Hear Yahweh’s word, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for my name’s sake, have said, ‘Let Yahweh be glorified, that we may see your joy;’ but it is those who shall be disappointed.

the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

He arose, and immediately took up the mat, and went out in front of them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this!”

Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude and mock you, and throw out your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake.

Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.

“I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, the Son of Man will also confess before the angels of God;

This beginning of his signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah comes, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”

When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”

Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?

They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.

Some therefore of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he doesn’t keep the Sabbath.” Others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” There was division among them.

They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.

Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you don’t believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name, these testify about me.

Many came to him. They said, “John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true.”

Then the Jews who were with her in the house and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.

They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time comes that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.

After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.

“Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God to you by mighty works and wonders and signs which God did by him among you, even as you yourselves know,

None of the rest dared to join them, however the people honored them.

They therefore departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for Jesus’ name.

For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.

and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”
