The Word Made Flesh

And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us; and we saw His glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

No one has seen God at any time; God the only Son, who is in the arms of the Father, He has explained Him.

and to those who were selling the doves He said, “Take these things away from here; stop making My Father’s house a place of business!”

The Father loves the Son and has entrusted all things to His hand.

You are not greater than our father Jacob, are You, who gave us the well and drank of it himself, and his sons and his cattle?”

Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and yet you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.”

Jesus *said to her, “Believe Me, woman, that a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

But a time is coming, and even now has arrived, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son is alive” ; and he himself believed, and his entire household.

But He answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I Myself am working.”

Jesus’ Equality with God

For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in the same way.

For the Father loves the Son and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing; and the Father will show Him greater works than these, so that you will be amazed.

For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.

For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son,

so that all will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;

Testimony of Works

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

Testimony of the Father

And the Father who sent Me, He has testified about Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form.

I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have put your hope.

Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you, for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal.”

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”

Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread out of heaven.

Everything that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I certainly will not cast out.
