John 17:25

For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,

Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, and shall be present.

The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.

He who overcomes will be arrayed in white garments, and I will in no way blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.

The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”

in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began;

Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they labored with me in the Good News with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News of God?

Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written.”

“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says Yahweh. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says Yahweh, “from now on and forever.”

“At that time Michael will stand up, the great prince who stands for the children of your people; and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time. At that time your people will be delivered, everyone who is found written in the book.

Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.

God looks down from heaven on the children of men, to see if there are any who understood, who seek after God.

“Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

All your children will be taught by Yahweh; and your children’s peace will be great.

“For my people are foolish. They don’t know me. They are foolish children, and they have no understanding. They are skillful in doing evil, but they don’t know how to do good.”

Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him.”

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

Because you kept my command to endure, I also will keep you from the hour of testing which is to come on the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”

You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn’t stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”

I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”

But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.

for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came from you. They have believed that you sent me.

I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.

You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him and keep his word.

even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.

They will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me.

for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you, on the kingdoms that don’t call on your name;

Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, Yahweh? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is no one besides me.

Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you, and on the families that don’t call on your name; for they have devoured Jacob. Yes, they have devoured him, consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.

All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.

Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

They said therefore to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”

Therefore Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.

I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude standing around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”

This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ.

As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.

that they may all be one; even 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.

I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me and loved them, even as you loved me.

Wake up righteously, and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.

punishing those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus,

They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest.

that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
