John 8:55

For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.

Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

But we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.

Whoever denies the Son doesn’t have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.

The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.

They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God, and was going to God,

If you love me, keep my commandments.

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.

who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.

We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.

The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

“Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

I revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word.

For your obedience has become known to all. I rejoice therefore over you. But I desire to have you wise in that which is good, but innocent in that which is evil.

Brothers, don’t be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.

unlike Cain, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.

If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

The entrance of your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple.

‘Hear this now, foolish people without understanding, who have eyes, and don’t see, who have ears, and don’t hear:

having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.

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 said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

The serpent said to the woman, “You won’t really die,

I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.”

“Most certainly I tell you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and doesn’t come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

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.”

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

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

and said, “You son of the devil, full of all deceit and all cunning, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

“I know your works, oppression, and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

“Behold, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights: I have put my Spirit on him. He will bring justice to the nations.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God’s law, I will also forget your children.

Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds! When the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.

“Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.

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

It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.

Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.

Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.

You do the works of your father.” They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God.”

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.

Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

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

Most certainly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death.”

You, Solomon my son, know the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Yahweh searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever.

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

He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

For, behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but Yahweh will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

The priests didn’t say, ‘Where is Yahweh?’ and those who handle the law didn’t know me. The rulers also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal and followed things that do not profit.

Their deeds won’t allow them to turn to their God; for the spirit of prostitution is within them, and they don’t know Yahweh.

“But who can endure the day of his coming? And who will stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like launderers’ soap;

Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”

One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.

Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.
