I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe.

for you have had five husbands, and the man you are living with now is not your husband. This you said truthfully!”

So Jesus added, “Because of this I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has allowed him to come.”

(Now Jesus had been talking about his death, but they thought he had been talking about real sleep.)

And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me.”

I no longer call you slaves, because the slave does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because I have revealed to you everything I heard from my Father.
